Looking for transfusion with platelets and or RBC. Which approach is best? ICD code or IO ITEMID? Cheers Sven

Almost certainly the appropriate choice is to use the IOEVENTS table. This will tell you when the blood was given (to the hour) and the amount. You can search the D_ITEMS table for the ITEMID associated with transfusions, such as "FFP", "RBC", etc. If you come up with a list of these ITEMID values we would welcome it as a contribution to the documentation.

The most common by total volume (in my analyses) ITEMID codes for platelets or RBC are: String description: ITEMID Packed Red Blood Cells: 225168 Packed RBC's: 30001 or just 1 in the IOEVENTS table (see my currently open issue #9 ) Platelets: 225170 OR Packed RBC Intake: 226368 Platelets: 30006 or just 6 OR Platelet Intake: 226369 OR Packed RBC's: 30104 or just 104

This is far from a complete list but appear to be the most common from my subgroup.
