Hi,

A number of fields in CDM 3.1 changed in
precision.  Our engineer had this to say
about that:




PCORI CDM 3.1 Issues:



We had a couple issues that may be related as follows:

  *   Are they running the data_step_view_prep.sas first?  Probably yes… If 
yes, then just after the data_step_view_prep.sas completed and before any other 
sas jobs, open each data set and review the data in each field. Data errors 
will become apparent before running the rest of the sas jobs.    Since PCORI 
changed the field lengths of some table fields there may be some SAS code that 
still assumes the old size of the table fields and therefore will truncate the 
data as is comes through the SAS views created by the data_step_view_prep.sas 
code. For LAB_RESULTS_CM table look in the data_step_view_prep.sas  for this 
table section and make the following change:

Result_num = input(result_num,best8.);      and change this to

Result_num = input(result_num,best32.8);

               And then re-run the data_step_view_prep.sas and review all the 
tables and fields values in SAS. In the SAS code anywhere where PCORI changed 
the field lengths potentially has this error.



             I’ve attached our data_step_view_prep.sas file for reference.





  *   The other issue to keep in mind relates to SAS Libraries. 
Data_step_view_prep.sas defines a libname called oracdata. Make sure in later 
SAS steps that you are not accidently re-defining this library in some other 
sas code.  You need to use the sas views created in data_step_view_prep.sas for 
the rest of the sas code in later steps.



Hope this helps.

I’d love to hear what UW is doing, as they are at 100% for lab ranges. Debbie, 
can you help?



We were also dinged for this, but the problem may be different. The SCILHS ETL 
included normal ranges for selected labs. We may not have pulled the most 
recent version of i2p? The version we ran was limited to the shorter list of 
labs, not the newer direction to include all data. Our labs are stored with a 
local coding system that can be linked to LOINC. The challenge is that we have 
multiple local codes, with different ranges, for a single LOINC. Still looking 
into this…



Thanks,

Laurel

Our CDM report showed us failing the check 3.10 for "LAB_NAME is a common 
measure* or LAB_LOINC is not null and RESULT_NUM is not null and 
NORM_MODIFIER_LOW, NORM_RANGE_LOW, NORM_MODIFIER_HIGH, and NORM_RANGE_HIGH are 
all populated per CDM specifications.**”



The difference between 3.09 and 3.10 seems to be the normal ranges, but we do 
have normal ranges in our data as we used the i2p code to generate the lab 
results.  Did anyone else have an issue like this with their last EDC report?  
Does anyone understand the SAS code well enough to help me figure out why this 
check was failing for us?



Thanks,

Phillip
