Abstract
A network data quality check that compute the proportion of facts that have an implausible date value. Implausibility in this case is defined as events that fall before the visit start date, after the visit end date, before the patient’s birth date, or after the patient’s death date (optionally with an added buffer window - PEDSnet defaults to death date + 30 days).
Results of this check for the current data cycle can be explored on the PEDSnet Data Quality Dashboard.

Visualization Output
NOTE: The visualizations are NOT part of the packaged code. This description applies to the visualizations available on the PEDSnet Data Quality Dashboard.
These results are visualized as a bar graph with one facet per implausible date type, proportion of implausible rows for that fact type along the X axis, and site along the Y axis.
