Comments

When the number of events is the statistic, use Statistic.quantity and set Statistic.type.coding.code=C25463 and Statistic.type.coding.display=Count. When the statistic is a Proportion, use Statistic.numberOfEvents instead of Statistic.sampleSize.numeratorCount and enter an integer as the value. When the statistic is an Event Rate (where individual participants may have 2 or more events), use Statistic.numberOfEvents to record the total number of events rather than the number of participants with events. When the statistic is any statistic associated with a number of events expressed as an integer, use Statistic.numberOfEvents instead of Statistic.sampleSize.numeratorCount and enter an integer as the value.
