Provenance
This concept set was developed for the Preserving Kidney Function in Children with Chronic Kidney Disease (PRESERVE) study. Cardiology visits are a covariate of interest across the PRESERVE study, given the focus on hypertension.
Description
This concept set contains codes intended to identify cardiology visits (in combination with the cardiology facility concept set). This concept set was generated by restricting the PCORnet CDM value set to provider types that mention “cardiology”. The value set uses the “Medicare Specialty” vocabulary, though the PEDSnet CDM also uses “ABMS”, “NUCC”, and “PEDSnet” vocabularies. The concept set is based on PCORnet CDM v6.0 2021-04.
A cardiology provider and facility concept set is also available for the PEDSnet CDM, linked below in Related Concept Sets.
