Abstract
A network data quality check which outputs the differences between previous and current data cycles. This involves both total row counts as well as total patient counts. It can also include changes across domains. For example, outpatient labs, which combine both the visit and measurement domains, can be computed with this check. Cohort-specific counts can also be computed with this check, if requested to the DCC.
Results of this check for the current data cycle can be explored in the PEDSnet Data Quality Dashboard. Data quality results for previous data cycles have been archived in the Data Cycle Changes Network Results collection.

Visualization Output
NOTE: Visualizations are NOT part of the packaged code. This description applies to what is used on the PEDSnet Data Quality Dashboard.
The dashboard includes two plots. The first is a heatmap where the Y axis is the domain being measured, the X axis is each site in the network, and the fill of the heatmap is the proportion change between data cycles, normalized to adjust for any extreme values that would skew the color scale. The second graphs are bar plot that show the raw proportion change for the selected domain(s).
Raw Output
This check produces a raw data output containing 7 columns of data:
| Column | Data Type | Definition |
|---|---|---|
site |
character | the name of the site being targeted |
total_ct |
numeric | the total row count for the site, domain, + database_version |
total_pt_ct |
numeric | the total patient count for the site, domain, + database_version |
database_version |
character | the database version from which the counts originated |
domain |
character | the clinical fact domain for which counts were computed |
check_name |
character | a short string identifier for the check |
check_type |
character | a short string identifier for the module |
