Statistic.category | |
Element Id | Statistic.category |
Definition | When the measured variable is handled categorically, the category element is used to define which category the statistic is reporting. |
Cardinality | 0..1 |
Type | CodeableConcept |
Summary | true |
Comments | Simple strings can be used for descriptive purposes. Exact matching to EvidenceVariable.category.name for the Evidence.variableDefinition[variableRole=measuredVariable].observed=Reference(EvidenceVariable) could facilitate validation within datasets. |
Statistic.quantity | |

Definition | Statistic value. |
Cardinality | 0..1 |
Type | Quantity |
Summary | true |
Statistic.numberOfEvents | |
Element Id | Statistic.numberOfEvents |
Definition | The number of events associated with the statistic, where the unit of analysis is different from numberAffected, sampleSize.knownDataCount and sampleSize.numberOfParticipants. |
Cardinality | 0..1 |
Type | unsignedInt |
Summary | true |
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 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. |
Statistic.numberAffected | |
Element Id | Statistic.numberAffected |
Definition | The number of participants affected where the unit of analysis is the same as sampleSize.knownDataCount and sampleSize.numberOfParticipants. |
Cardinality | 0..1 |
Type | unsignedInt |
Summary | true |
Comments | When the number affected 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.numberAffected 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.numberAffected to record the number of participants with events rather than the total number of events. |
