The Charlson Comorbid score is calculated by different functions in different parts of CCMDB.

SAS coding macro comorbid3

The statistician has a SAS macro called "comorbid3" that calculates the score for data after import.

CCMBD.mdb

queries

  • s_charlson_score

sums the scores in

  • s_charlson__combined

which unions (ie no duplicates)

  • s_charlson_adm - list of scores for the highest-scoring admit dx per charlson category
  • s_charlson_como - list of scores for the highest-scoring comorbid dx per charlson category

function Charlson_score_function

The function Charlson_score_function (Pat_ID) in CCMDB.mdb will return the Charlson Score for a patient. It will do this by comparing the contents of L_Como and the table s charlson dxs, using queries s_charlson_dx and s_charlson_score.
