Data specification for CC-HIC. The meta data / data dictionary for the Critical Care Health Informatics Collaborative is held here.

The core and original specification will live on a branch called core. Collaborators who wish to work with the data are encouraged to fork this repository, and then send a pull request with a copy of the modifications back to us.

A richer specification compatible with cleanEHR will be kept here (on the master branch) as a easy and quick start for new teams. The best parts of the work from different collaborators will be merged with this.

This might include

• validation checks
  • range thresholds
  • missingness thresholds
  • imputation recommendations
• recommended variable names
• distributions for variables
• labels for categorical variables
