Description
Abstract: A large database of 10,000 neonates was analyzed for accuracy of ICD 9 and ICD 10 data fields. Using structured data fields resulted in a large amount of missing data for gestational age and birth weight. Structured data fields for congenital infections are highly inaccurate and need to be reviewed by a content expert. Including maternal data into these databases may help to improve diagnostic accuracy.
Describe the new knowledge and additional skills the participant will gain after attending your presentation.: 1. Attendees will learn pitfalls to using only structured data fields when extracting de-identified data for neonates
2. Attendees will learn about the benefits of including structured data fields of maternal data when creating a large de-identified database that includes pediatric patients
