Current Version

MSDW Version 2.0.221209 – December 9, 2022

Fixed
  • Most of the blood pressure vital signs in the OMOP measurement table were linked to the wrong encounter records in the OMOP visit_occurrence table.
  • The column invalid_reason in the OMOP concept, concept_relationship, and drug_strength tables sometimes contained an empty string instead of the NULL value, as specified by OHDSI.  The data-load process was updated to restrict allowed values to ‘D’, ‘U’, and NULL only.
  • The column standard_concept in the OMOP concept table sometimes contained an empty string instead of the NULL value, as specified by OHDSI.  The data-load process was updated to restrict allowed values to ‘S’, ‘C’, and NULL only.

 

MSDW Version 2.0 – December 7, 2022

What’s New
  • At our customers’ request, all encounter records from Epic are now included in the OMOP visit_occurrence table, even the “chart documentation events” that aren’t face-to-face or telehealth patient encounters.  Because this approach deviates from OHDSI’s guidance for the visit_occurrence table, these documentation “encounter” records have visit_concept_id = 0.
Changed
  • The 18 foreign key columns in the OMOP visit_occurrence table that matched the naming pattern etl_*_version_id have been removed.  Similarly, the 12 data lineage columns from Epic Caboodle matching the pattern etl_epic_*_key have been removed (but not the ones like etl_epic_*_durable_key).
Future Removals
  • The foreign key columns in all OMOP tables that match the following naming pattern etl_*_version_id are deprecated and will be removed in an upcoming release.
    • If you are using these columns, please update your SQL queries to use the durable *_id columns in conjunction with the etl_record_version_start_datetime and etl_record_version_end_datetime columns.
  • OMOP death table
    • Death date is in the OMOP person table, and OHDSI wants to put cause of death, if available, in the OMOP condition_occurrence table
  • Columns to be renamed in the OMOP visit_occurrence and visit_detail tables:
    • Admitting_source_concept_id renamed as Admitted_from_concept_id
    • Admitting_source_value renamed as Admitted_from_source_value
    • Discharge_to_concept_id renamed as Discharged_to_concept_id
    • Discharge_to_source_value renamed as Discharged_to_source_valu
Unresolved
  • In the OMOP visit_occurrence table, the column xtn_visit_type_source_concept_id is not yet populated to denote “Chart Documentation Event” records
  • Some historical patient addresses are not getting marked as “inactive” when they are replaced by a new address record
  • Epic’s documentation records that appear in the diagnosis and procedure master files aren’t yet re-assigned to OMOP’s observation table (from condition_occurrence and procedure_occurrence, respectively)
