Below is a list of codelists created for #5, which now need review by a clinician.

Some of these updates were created by pressing the `Create new codelist" button, which reruns the searches conducted previously. Some of them have only changed slightly.

The previous sodium codelist only had searches for specific codes, so "Create new codelist" did not search for any additional ones. I searched for "sodium level" to see if there were additional codes, and this added an additional 4 codes.

The QOF codelists were created by uploading from an external source, so did not have search terms associated with them. I have created new codelists by creating new search terms based on the names of the existing codes. Some of these have increased in size quite a bit. However if we use these new codelists they might not really be considered QOF codelists any more?

https://www.opencodelists.org/codelist/opensafely/alanine-aminotransferase-alt-tests/7694fc89/

New code detected:

  1. Alanine transaminase in serum (364571000119101)

Suggest this is excluded, as it does not clearly refer to taking a measurement level, but @richiecroker with your previous experience of this codelist can you indicate whether you agree? Zero usage of this code reported in NHSD Primary Care stats.

Codelist is identical to previous version.

Codelist is identical to previous version.

https://www.opencodelists.org/codelist/opensafely/systolic-blood-pressure-qof/659dc936/
New codes detected:

  1. Average ambulatory day interval systolic blood pressure (2181401000000109)
  2. Average ambulatory night interval systolic blood pressure (2181421000000100)
  3. Average ambulatory systolic blood pressure (2181381000000109)
  4. Self reported systolic blood pressure (1162737008)

Suggest all are included.

Codelist is identical to previous version.

https://www.opencodelists.org/codelist/opensafely/sodium-tests-numerical-value/7ead3c6b/
New codes detected:

  1. Blood sodium level(1012681000000101)
  2. Substance concentration of sodium in blood(54381000237109)

Suggest including 1, and excluding 2.

Previous version is based on v44 of QoF. When comparing against current QoF (v49), the codelist continues to be based on cluster ID 'REV_COD' from the PCD refsets and the codes included are identical across both versions.
When searching by code descriptions the new codes detected are all 'inactive' versions of the same code descriptions, but if we're trying to replicate QoF exactly then we probably shouldn't include these.
