durcomp.hospitalisation: Example hospitalization events for 10 patients.

Description

A sample dataset containing hospitalization periods (one per row) for 10 patients over a period of roughly 18 months (28 events in total). This is the appropriate format to compute event durations with the compute_event_durations function. Each row represent an individual hospitalization period of a patient for whom event durations should be calculated. Besides hospitalizations, this could cover other situations where patients may not use their own supply, e.g. during incarcerations. All column names must match the format provided in this example.
