TimeStamp #100

Closed bluerage01 closed 4 years ago

bluerage01 commented 4 years ago

I would like to monitor the effect of specific therapy over time (for example, every 30 minutes after drug administration). Could you advise me on how to get vital parameters in certain Time stamps? Thanks

Everything in eICU-CRD is done in terms of offsets. This is the time (in minutes) from ICU admission. In both the vitalaperiodic and vitalperiodic tables, there is a column called observationoffset which indicates the time the observation was made.

In most other tables there will be one or more offset columns, and figuring out what occurred when will require making use of these.
