Usage

calDDDsRange(
  case,
  index_dayColName = Index_Day,
  expo_range_before = 36000,
  expo_range_after = 36000,
  idColName = MemberId,
  AtcCodeColName = ATC,
  DispenseDateColName = DispenseDate,
  DaysSupplyColName = DaysSupply,
  DailyDosageColName = DailyDosage
)

Arguments

case	data.frame include subjects' id, dispensing date, drug ATC code, daily dosage, duration
expo_range_before	days before observation day
expo_range_after	days after observation day
idColName	a column name for subject's id

Value

A new data.table index_DDD with following columns.

MemberId patient Id

Start_day the begin date of patient take medicine

Index_Day the begin date of calculating the DDDs

End_day the end date of patient take medicine
