Background. Comorbidity measures are commonly used in health care research to correct outcomes for the patients' overall health. Three common measures are the CHADS2 score (risk of stroke), the Charlson score (overall risk of death) and the Elixhauser score (also overall risk of death). Getting valid comorbidity data on large numbers of patients requires either intensive and expensive manual review of patient records or a trusted automated data retrieval system. Mayo Clinic uses two SAS macros to automatically extract data and compute comorbidity, one for computing Charlson score and the other for computing Elixhauser score. This project looked at the input data as generated by manual methods and compared those data with data produced automatically using those two implementations. Methods. We obtained CHADS2 markers from a manual extraction for patients with ECGs as part of a research project on atrial fibrillation. We then ran those patients through the two macros to obtain the associated markers, then compared those markers between the three methods. Risks were computed and the predictions were compared. Results. The two measures do not appear at first to be very concordant, but the computed risks are more similar.

the CHADS2 score (risk of stroke), the Charlson score (overall risk of death) and the Elixhauser score (also overall risk of death). Getting valid comorbidity data on large numbers of patients requires either intensive and expensive manual review of patient records or a trusted automated data retrieval system.

They are often used to correct for patient condition when analyzing treatment eects. Adding comorbidity to the model removes some of the eects of the comorbidities. [? 2]. Charlson and Elixhauser are often used and often cited and have been compared in the literature. (Ref: [3, 1]) 2 Methodology A Mayo Wisdom Lab project generated a set of patients with known CHADS2 comorbidities for a project that was looking at ECGs and detecting and notifying atrial brillation. Because some of the CHADS2 markers are also used in the Charlson and Elixhauser comorbidity scores it was possible to contrast the manual, clinical notes review based ndings for those shared markers with the markers returned by Mayos SAS macros. We used the clinic IDs and the date of the ECG as the reference date when calling the SAS macros as the manual assessment was done as of the date of the ECG. All three methods can be compared for two of the markers (Diabetes and Congestive Heart Failure (CHF)), but the other two markers (Stroke, Hypertension) were only shared by two of the three measures. The conditions are extracted from the medical records using DXCODES matched to the features required (see A). This mapping may use up to several hundred DXCODES to identify a single condition. These conditions are then used to compute the comorbidity score using weights as taken from the literature. Two patients are dropped for lack of any data. Patient conditions are either Yes the condition was present or No, the condition was not present. morlan.bruce@mayo.edu 2 June 10, 2010 Mayo Clinic Comparison of Comorbidity Measures HCPR 3 Results 3.1 Comparing the three using common features How well do the features shared between the three compare?
