Additions to COVID-19 v2.0 Vocabulary Release (16 Dec, 2021)

1. COVID sequelae and related conditions.

In the recent vocabulary release we introduced a new temporary OMOP Extension concept in order to support the coding of the following clinical situations:

  • Sequelae of COVID-19.
  • Sequelae of COVID-19 treatment.
  • Chronic conditions that develops during or after acute COVID-19 (with or w/o ongoing persistence of virus).
  • Other conditions that develop during or after acute COVID-19 but where we don’t know the connection to the COVID-19.

Although the concept is named "Post-acute COVID-19", it's supposed to be an overarching one catch all bucket concept rather than a concept reflecting any of existing definitions. Therefore the synonyms of the concepts are:

  • Sequela of COVID-19
  • Chronic COVID-19
  • Long COVID
  • Ongoing symptomatic COVID-19
  • Post COVID-19
  • Post COVID-19 intensive care unit syndrome
  • Persistent COVID-19 symptoms
  • Long-term COVID-19 effects
  • Ongoing COVID-19
  • Post-acute sequelae of SARS CoV-2 infection (PASC)

This issue was discussed on the forums and the decision was done by the following inspirations:

  • There's a plenty of conflicting to each other and evolving definitions.
  • It's not yet investigated enough and not properly defined.
  • It's supposed to be not an input, but an output of the research, including the research in the OHDSI network.

Unless we have a better understanding of the issue, this new temporary concept will be used as the Standard target for the respective source codes. As well as emerging Standard SNOMED terms will be deStandardized and mapped over to it.

2. Long COVID clinic Visit.

In the recent vocabulary release we introduced a new "Ambulatory long COVID clinic" concept in the Visit Domain.

This is a subtype of outpatient Visit that is defined as follows: "confirmed presence of a clinical encounter that is specific to specialty care for those who are suspected to have long COVID. It, in itself, may have clinical noise in that there are different protocols for how people show in long COVID clinics depending on the clinical practice patterns of that specific medical center".

3. Alternate care site (ACS) Visit.

Alternate care sites are non-traditional environments (mobile field medical units, converted hotels, schools, stadiums) that may be established due to local surge in the need for medical care (e.g. disaster or public health emergency). ACSs provide medical care for injured or sick patients as well as continuing care for chronic conditions.

Because ACS can provide care of different levels (non-acute, hospital and acute care) an OMOP Extension "Alternate care site (ACS)" Visit concept is not rolled up to any of Visit concepts (inpatient, outpatient or emergency).

Even though patients with COVID-19 can remain in ACS and receive medical care for the duration of their isolation period, consider using respective quarantine/isolation Visit concepts properly.

COVID-19 v2.0 Vocabulary Release (19-25 May, 2020)

Following the initial v1.0 vocabulary release to support COVID-19 studies on 19-21 March 2020, several changes were implemented in subsequent releases. To summarize them, with the recent vocabulary releases v20200519 and v20200525, we announce v.2.0 COVID-19 vocabulary and describe here what has been changed.

Note: If you are involved in ETL or data analysis, please make sure to take a look at the changes below. The reason is that there will be exceptions from the standard mapping rules applied during normal ETL, which are due to the provisional nature of some of the vocabulary artifacts. Also, after the first version of this instruction we updated some rules. It's highly recommended to re-run ETL with the recent version since the interim vocabulary versions are not supported by current or initial instructions.

1. Incorporation of novel Concepts

Most of the vocabularies keep adding Concepts around COVID-19. We incorporated them into non-standard Source Сoncepts (ICD10, ICD10CM, ICD10CN) and Standard Сoncepts (SNOMED, LOINC, RxNorm). Also we added new concepts into 'OMOP Extension' and 'RxNorm Extension' vocabularies with support of existing SNOMED and LOINC hierarchies.

2. Domain reassignment

Additional changes were done to provide the correct Domain assignment. In particular, 'Suspected diseases' hierarchy transition from Observation into Condition were rolled back. Note that the changes mentioned below affect the entire concept, their descendants, and the Source concepts mapped.

3. Status (probability) of COVID-19 diagnoses

By the definition, any record in the CONDITION_OCCURRENCE table implies the positive fact. Due to this reason, Condition_status_Concept_id field in the CONDITION_OCCURRENCE table is NOT longer supported and should NOT be used for this purpose.

Instead, we moved back to Observation Domain a 4219847 'Disease suspected' hierarchy and turned back to Standard 37311060 'Suspected disease caused by severe acute respiratory coronavirus 2' concept. This concept should be used for mapping of non-confirmed (suspected, probable) COVID-19 cases.

In the same way, 703431 'COVID-19 excluded' concept, placed into the Observation Domain, or any of its descendants might be used to capture negative COVID-19 information.

To support the coding of way/criteria the COVID-19 was confirmed, we introduced the following OMOP Extension concepts in Observation Domain that might be used in combination with COVID-19 Condition concepts.

4. ICD10-like vocabularies Emergency Use Codes

ICD10 and ICD10CM introduced new and clarified the meaning of the recently added COVID-19 concepts. We pushed the actual mappings to the CONCEPT_RELATIONSHIP table based on the current coding guidelines of ICD10 and ICD10CM.

But this is still a responsibility of ETL to address the following issues:

5. Additional minor points


COVID-19 v1.0 Vocabulary Release (19-21 March, 2020)

This is an ad-hoc release for the purpose of creating harmonized data assets for our COVID-19 Study-a-thon on the 26-Mar-2020. This documentation has two parts: 1. The changes made to the vocabularies and 2. Instructions for folks ETLing data assets into the OMOP CDM.

Note: If you are involved in ETL please make sure to take a look at the instructions below. The reason is that there will be exceptions from the standard mapping rules applied during normal ETL, which are due to the provisional nature of some of the vocabulary artifacts.

1. Vocabulary changes

We identified relevant clinical entities that will potentially be used in definitions of COVID-19 study-a-thon cohorts and subsequent research. These were prioritized and processed accordingly. For each, we performed the following tasks:

1.1. Incorporation of novel Concepts

A number of vocabularies issued updated and newly added Concepts around COVID-19. We incorporated them into Standard Сoncepts (SNOMED, LOINC, CPT4, HCPCS) and non-standard Source Сoncepts (ICD10, KCD7, ICD10CN):

1.4. Creation of de novo Concepts

To cover the entire semantic space we looked at various CRFs from prospective COVID-19 studies, we created 64 new Concepts of an ‘OMOP Extension’ placeholder vocabulary with various Domain assignments. These Concepts were mostly pre-coordinated Concepts between COVID-19 and its complications as well as various scenarios of exposure to the disease. All Concepts were placed into existing SNOMED and LOINC hierarchies. We expect some of them to be overwritten by the authoritative vocabularies at a later point in time, and we will deprecate and upgrade them appropriately if and when that happens.

1.5. Revision of mapping for new and existing Concepts

All mappings between Source and Standard Concepts were reviewed and revised, and de-novo mapping of unmapped Concepts (ICD10, ICD10CM, ICD10CN, KCD7, Read, EDI, LOINC) created.

2. Instructions for ETL

2.1. ICD10 Emergency Use Codes

Emergency use codes U07.1 in ICD10 and related vocabularies (U18.1 in KCD7, U07.100 in ICD10CN) are reserved for situations, where the vocabulary contained in an EHR or other electronic system cannot be updated quickly enough. These codes can be temporary placeholders until a new proper code is assigned and percolated to the applications. This mechanism has been employed for COVID-19. We therefore added a 'Maps to' record to the CONCEPT_RELATIONSHIP table cross-linking these Emergency Use Codes to SNOMED ‘Disease caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2’.

However, if these codes are used in predefined code combinations like in the case of ICD10CM (see below), it is the responsibility of the ETL to apply appropriate mappings. The CONCEPT_RELATIONSHIP table is not designed to support mapping of code combinations to pre-coordinated Concepts.

2.2. ICD10CM codes

For ICD10CM, instead of adding COVID-19 directly, the CDC introduced coding guidelines based on post-coordination of existing codes. It is the responsibility of the ETL to detect these combinations (both corresponding records on the same day) and map them according to the table below. Note that the CONCEPT_RELATIONSHIP table cannot support the mapping of post-coordinated to pre-coordinated Concepts and therefore does not contain this mapping information.

ICD10CM B97.29+J80 756044 Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 Condition OMOP Extension

2.3. Other situations where generic codes are temporarily used

When COVID-19 appeared, coding systems around the world were not prepared for the rapidly spreading condition. As a result, preexisting non-specific codes or combination thereof started to appear in data or were instructed to be used. Since the use of these generic codes is temporary and differs from before the outbreak, we did not create mappings to COVID-19-related Concepts. It is therefore the task of the ETL to asses such codes in the context of the COVID-19 timing and to map them properly:

  • Use the old mappings from the CONCEPT_RELATIONSHIP table for records from the pre-pandemic period
  • Map codes recorded during the pandemic period to Standard Concepts below

The main Concept for the COVID-19 Condition should be SNOMED ‘Disease caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2’. However, there is a number of more granular Condition Concepts from which you can select. Note that the selection of the right target Concept is the responsibility of the ETL script. The CONCEPT_RELATIONSHIP table does not offer any of these mappings.

37310285 Pneumonia caused by 2019 novel coronavirus Condition SNOMED

2.4. Patients quarantined or investigated

After exposure to SARS-CoV-2, patients are routinely put into isolation or quarantine. Likewise, explicit investigation are carried out to track the infection chain and localize all other exposed people. For these healthcare interactions specific to COVID-19, new Visit Concepts were added. Note that it is the responsibility of the ETL to identify these situations. Note that the CONCEPT_RELATIONSHIP table does not contain these default mappings.

- - 32759 Home isolation Visit Visit
- - 32760 Isolation in inpatient setting Visit Visit

2.5. Status of COVID-19 diagnoses

Many people are being tested for COVID-19 infection, requiring several days. During this period, before the reliable test result was obtained, the diagnosis of the patient is preliminary. This fact is not to be part of a pre-coordinated Condition, but should be declared through a record in the condition_status_Concept_id field in the CONDITION_OCCURRENCE table. Note that these mappings are NOT incorporated into the CONCEPT_RELATIONSHIP table:

2.6. Oxygen therapy

Source codes related to oxygen therapy were mapped to RxNorm Oxygen ingredient in addition to existing mapping to Procedure Domain. It is therefore expected that these will create records in both the DRUG_EXPOSURE and PROCEDURE_OCCURRENCE tables.

2.7. Testing laboratory

COVID-19 testing is performed by different labs at different levels of quality. In order to represent the laboratory that performed testing, the measurement_type_Concept_id field in the table below should be used. Note that these mappings are NOT incorporated to the CONCEPT_RELATIONSHIP table and just demonstrate the example of how the source data should be converted during ETL.

2.8. SARS-CoV-2 testing

OMOP Extension ‘Measurement of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2’ is the main representative Сoncept, with a mixed pool (SNOMED, OMOP Extension, LOINC, CPT4, HCPCS) of Concepts hierarchically under this Concept. It is the responsibility of the ETL to find the appropriate mapping, if supported vocabularies are not used. Note that there are two Concepts that comprise the result of the measurement by itself ('2019 novel coronavirus detected' and '2019 novel coronavirus not detected'), instead of splitting into Measurement Concept and Value Concept. All other Concepts are designed correctly.

2.9. SARS-CoV-2 exposure/suspected exposure

SNOMED ‘Exposure to severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2’ is the main representative Concept, with a mixed pool (SNOMED, OMOP Extension) of Concepts placed hierarchically under this Concept. It is the responsibility of the ETL to select the right Concept with the appropriate granularity, if supported vocabularies are not used in the source data. This hierarchy includes both confirmed and suspected exposures placed under the OMOP Extension 'Suspected exposure to severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2' Concept. There is no split like for Conditions between fact and suspicion.

Use these Concepts if the date of the exposure is known and can be recorded as the time stamp of the Observation. If not, use the History of exposure (see below).
