Intentional Hypothermia

Description

This phenotype determines if intentional hypothermia occurred during a case.

Limitation

Collation mapping is completed at the MPOG Coordinating Center. This involves manual review of notes and is subject to human error.

Data quality is limited to individual site documentation accuracy, completeness, and variable mapping, which is performed by each site, independently. MPOG, as the coordinating center, reviews data quality at each data upload and monthly via Data Diagnostics and Case Validation tools. This review, while thorough, may not contain all data elements relevant to this phenotype and thus should be carefully reviewed by the user.
