Abstract

The concept set was intended to identify all patients with a drug_exposure record indicating a Paxlovid exposure (nirmatrelvir/ritonavir).

Funder(s)

Provenance

This concept set was originally developed to extract COVID patients out of the PEDSnet CDM observation table for the the Researching COVID to Enhance Recovery (RECOVER) Post-Acute Sequelae of SARS-CoV-2 (PASC) Electronic Health Record (EHR) Cohort Study. RECOVER was a was a long-term NIH-funded project focused on analyzing the COVID-19 outbreak, especially the long term health impacts of the pandemic. Thid codeset has also been used in a RECOVER Y1, Q3 query and used to define a cohort in the "COVID and Diabetes Assessment Study (CODA)". These concepts were later reviewed and refined for a brief report on pediatric nirmatrelvir and ritonavir prescribing patterns, "Pediatric Nirmatrelvir/Ritonavir Prescribing Patterns During the COVID-19 Pandemic" (Bose-Brill et. al., 2022).

Description

One of several codesets in the PEDSnet observation_derivation_recover(ODR) workflow to extract COVID-19 patients from the PEDSnet CDM observation table. This concept set was used to identify pediatric patients under 18 who were prescribed Paxlovid.

The concept set was developed by identifying RxNorm codes at the SCDF/SCDG level and descendants indicating Paxlovid, then string searching for the terms ‘paxlovid’, ‘ritonavir’, and ‘nirmatrelvir’ in ‘concept_name’. Codes were identified in the ‘code_type’ column as ‘Paxlovid’ (indicating nirmatrelvir/ritonavir), ‘nirmatrelvir’ (indicating nirmatrelvir alone) and ‘ritonavir’ (indicating ritonavir alone).

Please note, this concept set should not be used without appropriate accompanying logic to identify Paxlovid; the concept set contains individual ingredients that comprise the combination. Ritonavir and nirmatrelvir exposure must occur together on the same date to indicate a combination drug prescription. The attached file, FIND_PAXLOVID_FUNCITON.R, provides logic showing how the concept set can be used.
