OnlyIsolatedTraumaticBrainInjuryPatients: Only isolated traumatic brain injury patients

In martingerdin/bengaltiger: bengaltiger

Description

Keeps only the isolated traumatic brain injury (TBI) patients. Isolated traumatic brain injury is here defined as having any of the international classification of disease (ICD) codes listed in the parameter icd.codes below and no abbreviated injury scale (AIS) score >1 in any other body region.

Arguments

study.sample	Data frame. The study sample. No default.
icd.codes	Character vector. The codes to be used to define a TBI. If any of the codes is present in any of the variables listen in icd.variables an observation will be classified as having a TBI. Defaults to c("s02.0", "s02.1", "s02.7", "s02.8", "s02.9", "s04.0", "s04.1", "s04.2", "s04.3", "s04.4", "s04.5", "s04.6", "s04.7", "s04.8", "s04.9", "s06.0", "s06.1", "s06.2", "s06.3", "s06.4", "s06.5", "s06.6", "s06.7", "s06.8", "s06.9", "s07.0", "s07.1", "s07.8", "s07.9", "s09.7", "s09.8", "s09.9", "t02.0", "t04.0", "t06.0").
icd.variables	Character vector. The names of the variables with international classification of disease (ICD) codes. Defaults to c("e_1_icd", "e_2_icd", "e_3_icd", "e_4_icd", "e_5_icd", "e_6_icd", "e_7_icd", "e_8_icd", "e_9_icd", "e_10_icd", "e_11_icd", "e_12_icd", "xray_1_icd", "xray_2_icd", "xray_3_icd", "xray_4_icd", "xray_5_icd", "xray_6_icd", "xray_7_icd", "xray_8_icd", "xray_9_icd", "xray_10_icd", "xray_11_icd", "fast_1_icd", "fast_2_icd", "fast_3_icd", "fast_4_icd", "fast_5_icd", "fast_6_icd", "fast_7_icd", "fast_8_icd", "fast_9_icd", "fast_10_icd", "fast_11_icd", "ct_1_icd", "ct_2_icd", "ct_3_icd", "ct_4_icd", "ct_5_icd", "ct_6_icd", "ct_7_icd", "ct_8_icd", "ct_9_icd", "ct_10_icd", "ct_11_icd", "ct_12_icd", "ct_13_icd", "op_1_icd", "op_2_icd", "op_3_icd", "op_4_icd", "op_5_icd", "op_6_icd", "op_7_icd", "op_8_icd", "op_9_icd", "op_10_icd", "op_11_icd").
ais.variables	Character vector. The names of the variables with AIS scores for each body region. Defaults to c("head_and_neck", "face", "chest", "extremities", "external").
ais.cutoff	Integer vector of length 1 between 1 and 6. The cutoff above which an injury should not be included as isolated TBI. Defaults to 1.
remove.missing	Logical vector of length 1. If TRUE all observations with missing AIS, as detected by is.na, are removed from the sample. Defaults to FALSE.
