Discharge Abstract Database, 2017-2018 and 2018-2019 [Canada]: Geographic Detail File

Voir cette notice dans le dépôt source
Description:

The Discharge Abstract Database captures administrative, clinical, and demographic information on hospital discharges. Two files are available: Clinical Detail and Geographic Detail. These files contain a 10% sampling of persons from the database. Reference dates were randomly assigned to selected individuals.

The Clinical Detail File includes inpatient data from all acute care institutions in Canada (excluding stillbirths and cadaveric donor cases). Data includes diagnosis, interventions, special care, length of stay, newborn weights, and gestation weeks at delivery.

The Enhanced Clinical and Geographic Detail Files have variables that were created at the Western Libraries Map and Data Centre to act as flags for ICD-10 and CCI groupings, to make using the files easier. Additional variables were created which record the number of ICD-10 and CCI codes assigned to each record in the file.

The Geographic Detail File includes inpatient data from all acute care institutions in Canada (excluding stillbirths and cadaveric donor cases). Data includes Health Region, case mix variables, and length of stay.

Common data elements in the Clinical Detail and Geographic Detail Files are person identifier, facility province (territories are combined), discharge day, admission day, gender, and age group.

The purpose of the DAD sample files is for the researchers to become familiar with the structure and content of DAD data, as well as to explore relationships among data elements. The sample files give researchers the chance to work with the data and clarify data requirements before making a formal data request to CIHI. They are not meant for completing an actual research project.

You must read and accept the terms of the license agreement before you can obtain the data and documentation.
