Subproblem 1

Prediction of first AP Diagnosis

Subproblem 1 - First A.P. diagnosis prediction

Inclusion Criteria:
35-65 years old patients with >= 2 years of records available

Exclusion Criteria:

Patients with any Drug- or Alcohol-Induced Acute Pancreatitis (K85.2, K85.3) are excluded.

Prediction Target: Acute Pancreatitis (except for drug- and alcohol-induced A.P. (K85, K85.0, K85.1, K85.8, K85.9)

Time of Prediction: Case: 6 to 18 months before first target Dx; Control: 2 years before end of records

Observation window: 1 to 2 years leading to the time of prediction

Prediction Objective: Predict if any Target diagnosis will be recorded within 6 to 18 months following the time of prediction

 

Cohort Size:

Case: 46,135 (0.8%), Control: 5,586,388 (99.2%)

Males: 2,513,756 (44.6%), Females: 3,118,767 (55.4%)

Mean age at the time of prediction: 50 years 4 months

Diagnoses with Highest statistically significant Log Odds by organ group

Subproblem 1

Diagnoses with Lowest statistically significant Absolute Log Odds by organ group

Questions:

  • Is current prediction window (6 to 18 month following screening) useful for the stated purpose? Should it be shorter or longer?
  • Are any of the top-risk codes presented in the slides above solid proxies for A.P. diagnosis? If so, should such codes be included into the prediction target, or filtered out from the cohort?

Subproblem 2

Progression from AP to Diabetes Mellitus 

Subproblem 2 - Progression from AP to Diabetes Mellitus

Inclusion Criteria:
Patients of any age with any K85 (Acute Pancreatitis) code recorded, with >= 1 year of records leading to the first K85 diagnosis available

Exclusion Criteria:

Patients with any Diabetes Mellitus prior to the first K85 diagnosis are excluded.

Prediction Target: Diabetes Mellitus due to Underlying Conditions (E08, E13)

Time of Prediction: Date of the first K85 diagnosis

Observation window: 1 to 2 years leading to the first K85 diagnosis

Prediction Objective: Predict if any Target diagnosis will be recorded within 2 weeks to 2 years following the first K85 diagnosis

 

Cohort Size:

Case: 1,329 (1.1%), Control: 122,257 (98.9%)

Males: 52,427 (42.4%), Females: 71,159 (57.6%)

Mean age at the time of prediction: 51 years 5 months

Diagnoses with Lowest statistically significant Absolute Log Odds by organ group

Questions:

 

  • Is current AP to Diabetes Mellitus progression window (2 weeks to 2 years following screening) appropriate?
  • There are no ICD10 diagnostic codes that explicitly records Type 3c Diabetes Mellitus. 

 

  • Current approximation of the target:
    • (Diabetes Mellitus due to underlying conditions, E08 and E13)
    • every patient diagnosed with AP +
    • not diagnosed with Diabetes Mellitus prior to AP diagnosis?

Subproblem 3 - Prediction of ICU admission following AP

There are no codes that directly mark the ICU admission in Merative MarketScan database

Closest matches, found in the Procedural codes catalog:

99291: CRITICAL CARE, EVALUATION AND MANAGEMENT OF THE CRITICALLY ILL OR CRITICALLY INJURED PATIENT;
G0390: TRAUMA RESPONSE TEAM ASSOCIATED WITH HOSPITAL CRITICAL CARE SERVICE
G0508: TELEHEALTH CONSULTATION, CRITICAL CARE, INITIAL , PHYSICIANS TYPICALLY SPEND 60 MINUTES COMMUNICATING WITH THE PATIENT AND PROVIDERS VIA TELEHEALTH
G0509: TELEHEALTH CONSULTATION, CRITICAL CARE, SUBSEQUENT, PHYSICIANS TYPICALLY SPEND 50 MINUTES COMMUNICATING WITH THE PATIENT AND PROVIDERS VIA TELEHEALTH
G9657: TRANSFER OF CARE DURING AN ANESTHETIC OR TO THE INTENSIVE CARE UNIT

Subproblem 3 - Prediction of ICU admission following AP

Questions:

  • Codes  indicative of ICU admission from AP complications? Are there any suitable indicators for recognizing this context in EHR?
  • What is a typical progression timeline:  ICU admission for AP complications post AP diagnosis.
