comorbindex: Compute the AHRQ comorbidity index for a dataset.

comorbindex R Documentation
Compute the AHRQ comorbidity index for a dataset.
Description
Given a table of comorbidity indicator variables, compute the AHRQ index
for risk of in-hospital mortality.
Usage
comorbindex(df, indextype = "mort")
Arguments
df
A data frame of comorbidity indicators (1 if the comorbidity is
present, 0 if not). There must be a column for each of the comorbidities
in the index.
indextype
Which index to calculate, see details
Details
AHRQ has produced risk indices for two outcomes: in-hospital mortality
('mort') and all-cause readmission ('readm'). In the future we may add
some indices for USNWR outcomes 30-day survival and discharge to home.
Adding these isn't entirely straightforward because they are calculated for
individual specialties and conditions. The default is 'mort'.
Value
A vector of comorbidity index values
