Affiliation(s)

Children's Hospital of Philadelphia

Funder(s)

Provenance

Preserving Kidney Function in Children with Chronic Kidney Disease (PRESERVE)

Description

This medication concept set includes oral fludrocortisone. No combinations are included. This code list was generated by taking all descendants from the SCDG drug level for oral fludrocortisone. The codeset was reviewed by the PRESERVE BPZ workgroup led by Mark Mitsnefes. This codeset was created as part of the inclusion/exclusion criteria for the cohort of patients for the development and evaluation of EHR-based pediatric blood pressure Z-scores. One of the exclusion criteria was any exposure to an oral form of the corticosteroid fludrocortisone. This medication concept set contains only RxNorm and RxNorm Extension vocabularies.
