Date of Birth (DOB)

  • A patient's age is calculated as a difference between the DOB and the admission date in our database.
  • Age is part of the patient demographic information that we collect and is used in the APACHE II scoring and MOST score.

Data Integrity

The minimum age allowed is 10, the maximum age allowed is 107. If the data of birth would lead to a patient age outside of this range, the CCMDB.mdb will not allow you to send.
