Abstract
A network data quality check which determines whether there are any value set violations in the submission. Value set violations are values that are outside of an accepted range of permissible values, usually defined in the PEDSnet conventions. For example, visit types in the PEDSnet data model can only contain a series of values that are specified in the conventions document.
Results of this check for the current data cycle can be explored on the PEDSnet Data Quality Dashboard. Data quality results for previous data cycles have been archived in the Valueset Conformance Network Results collection.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 results of this check are visualized as a bar graph displaying ONLY the value sets where violations are present. It will show the proportion of rows represented by the violating concepts where violations are present.
Raw Output
This check produces a raw data output containing 16 columns of data:
| Column | Data Type | Definition |
|---|---|---|
total_denom_ct |
character | the total number of rows in the table |
total_pt_ct |
character | the total number of patients in the table |
site |
character | the name of the site being targeted |
database_version |
character | the database version from which the counts originated |
check_name |
character | a short string identifier for the check |
check_type |
character | a short string identifier for the module |
accepted_value |
boolean | indicator of whether or not the vocabulary is acceptable for that table + field |
table_application |
character | the name of the table for which the vocabulary distribution was evaluated |
measurement_column |
character | the name of the column in the table_application for which the vocabulary distribution was evaluated |
concepts |
numeric | concepts that violate the valueset; defaults to -999 if no violations are found |
total_viol_ct |
character | the number of rows with concepts that do not meet the valueset requirements |
total_viol_pt_ct |
character | the number of patients with concepts that do not meet the valueset requirements |
concept_name |
character | the name of the violating concepts; defaults to “No violations” if no violations |
