Description

Description of the issue, including:

Hello, I'm curious for getting soma data from MIMIC-III.

How would I get some data of 'outpatient' from LABEVENTS.csv table?
For example, there are some lab event or lab results data from LABEVENTS.csv table.
and as it says in this document, it's outpatient data for only lab test if the row doesn't have HADM_ID.

So, this is what I want.

• For a patient, can we know when a patient has visited the hospital for the lab test?

1. It has only CHARTTIME column from LABEVENTS.csv. I guess I can't get which date.
2. So, I would like to use this information with 'how many the patients have visited in the hospital for the lab test as a outpatient'.

Thank you

Start with the linked MIMIC-III LABEVENTS documentation and the LABEVENTS.csv table, focusing on rows without HADM_ID and the CHARTTIME field. Determine whether the repository documents a way to identify outpatient lab visits and count them per patient; done means the issue has a documented, source-supported answer.
