addDrugUtilisation: Add new columns with drug use related information

Description

Add new columns with drug use related information

Usage

addDrugUtilisation(
  cohort,
  gapEra,
  conceptSet = NULL,
  ingredientConceptId = NULL,
  indexDate = "cohort_start_date",
  censorDate = "cohort_end_date",
  restrictIncident = TRUE,
  numberExposures = TRUE,
  numberEras = TRUE,
  daysExposed = TRUE,
  daysPrescribed = TRUE,
  timeToExposure = TRUE,
  initialExposureDuration = TRUE,
  initialQuantity = TRUE,
  cumulativeQuantity = TRUE,
  initialDailyDose = TRUE,
  cumulativeDose = TRUE,
  nameStyle = "{value}_{concept_name}_{ingredient}",
  name = NULL
)

Value

The same cohort with the added columns.

Arguments

cohort

A cohort_table object.

gapEra

Number of days between two continuous exposures to be considered in the same era.

conceptSet

List of concepts to be included.

ingredientConceptId

Ingredient OMOP concept that we are interested for the study.

indexDate

Name of a column that indicates the date to start the analysis.

censorDate

Name of a column that indicates the date to stop the analysis, if NULL end of individuals observation is used.

restrictIncident

Whether to include only incident prescriptions in the analysis. If FALSE all prescriptions that overlap with the study period will be included.

numberExposures

Whether to include 'number_exposures' (number of drug exposure records between indexDate and censorDate).

numberEras

Whether to include 'number_eras' (number of continuous exposure episodes between indexDate and censorDate).

daysExposed

Whether to include 'days_exposed' (number of days that the individual is in a continuous exposure episode, including allowed treatment gaps, between indexDate and censorDate; sum of the length of the different drug eras).

daysPrescribed

Whether to include 'days_prescribed' (sum of the number of days for each prescription that contribute in the analysis).

timeToExposure

Whether to include 'time_to_exposure' (number of days between indexDate and the first episode).

initialExposureDuration

Whether to include 'initial_exposure_duration' (number of prescribed days of the first drug exposure record).

initialQuantity

Whether to include 'initial_quantity' (quantity of the first drug exposure record).

cumulativeQuantity

Whether to include 'cumulative_quantity' (sum of the quantity of the different exposures considered in the analysis).

initialDailyDose

Whether to include 'initial_daily_dose_{unit}' (daily dose of the first considered prescription).

cumulativeDose

Whether to include 'cumulative_dose_{unit}' (sum of the cumulative dose of the analysed drug exposure records).

nameStyle

Character string to specify the nameStyle of the new columns.

name

Name of the new computed cohort table, if NULL a temporary table will be created.

Examples

# \donttest{
cdm <- mockDrugUtilisation()
codelist <- CodelistGenerator::getDrugIngredientCodes(
  cdm,
  name = "acetaminophen"
)

cdm <- generateDrugUtilisationCohortSet(cdm, "dus_cohort", codelist)
cdm[["dus_cohort"]] |>
  addDrugUtilisation(ingredientConceptId = 1125315, gapEra = 30)
# }
