Standard AERS Subpopulations
The Signal Management feature of Oracle Empirica Signal reports the results of statistical analysis of all records in the AERS database. For comparison, it also reports the results of statistical analysis performed only on reports with certain shared characteristics within the database: for example, reports involving elderly individuals only, or reports with a fatal outcome only.
To identify different subpopulations and types of cases in the AERS database, a set of standard queries is supplied and then used as database restrictions in data mining runs.
The standard subpopulations or types of cases used for Signal Management are:
Population | Default Query |
---|---|
Adult |
AgeGroup4 equals '18_64' |
Elderly |
AgeGroup4 equals '65_above' |
Fatal |
Outcome Died equals 'YES' |
Female |
Gender equals 'F' |
Male |
Gender equals 'M' |
Pediatric |
AgeGroup4 equals '00_17' |
Serious |
Seriousness equals 'YES' |
