Created APACHE Chronic query

The Created_APACHE_Chronic query in CFE provides a replacement of the Chronic Health APACHE field to the Created_Variables_Common_maker_2021 query.

Implementation

Lists all records that have APACHE Chronic based either on ICD10 or on old Chronic Health APACHE variable.

We could change it to something that deliberately chooses how to derive based on time, but is there any advantage to that? For records with Dispo DtTm before the transition date it provides the content of the Chronic Health APACHE field. For records with Dispo DtTm afterthe transition date it provides a count of the qualifying diagnoses as per L_ICD10_APACHE_Comorbids query

No need to consider Drug-induced immunosuppression

We were initially collecting the Immunosuppressed part of this as CCI code Drug-induced immunosuppression and then changed it to ICD10 code Past history of immunosuppressive drugs or corticosteroids. Since we did not stop collecting the "old" way Chronic Health APACHE before that change we don't need to give consideration to the Drug-induced immunosuppression records.
