TriNetX Medication Frequency not required, and thus ignored #50

OMOP does not require medication frequency. initial mapping validation sessions decided to ignore this field. If this field becomes needed in the future (ie: when total doses are being calculated, or other need) then "ignoring" will need to be replaced with mapping for this field

In the Statistics group, a (strong) request was made for the ability to calculate pressor dosing, down to mcg/min. I responded that I was not sure we would have the data to support that calculation, but that I might be wrong.

In TriNetX same patient can have same medication on a same day. This is not removed as duplicates but treated and multiple instances of the same medication on a same day for the same patient and all reported instances are preserved as recorded in the data.
