So yes, every pediatric patient with a BMI above the 5th percentile for
their sex and age is a potential survey respondent. The next panel
(group 2) does narrow it somewhat by excluding the visits where the
/raw/ BMI is above 75.
Please note also that we are no longer filtering for diseases up-front--
disease codes will be included in the de-id EMR data that will accompany
the survey responses. The large set of diagnosis, drug, and other codes
in the "data elements obesity.html" file I sent earlier are not
exclusion or inclusion criteria. They are intended to generate a query
object that can then be dragged onto DataBuilder to create the
share-able de-identified dataset.
This is will be a large number of patients, which is why we have been
spending so much time at our end automating and testing the survey
management workflow.

The exclusion IS less than 5th percentile. The index criteria bins are
5-85. 85-95 and greater than 95. These are standard CDC criteria

Are the semantics of the “obesity query” correct?
While Ok to test an i2b2 instance’s operation, the query
“ Find everyone with a BMI percentile > 5”
would actually identify **everybody** other than the severely
underweight – not the obese patients who we are expected contact.
(If we are looking for underweight individuals, we would have to
change the criterion to < 5, not >5).
