    Implementation

    This code list was created as part of an algorithm to dectect Stroke , which was developed under the BHF Data Science Centre's Standardising Clinical Outcome measures in Routinely collected Electronic healthcare systems data (SCORE-CVD) project. It provides a pipeline for identifying stroke events, including recurrent stroke, in HES APC and ONS deaths datasets. The algorithm allows for user input into decisions on how the algorihms should run e.g. stroke codes to be used, washout periods etc. We list here the default codes used in the algorithm based on clinician oversight and review of the literature. A ready to implement Databricks and R studio version of the stroke algorithm, can be found on the BHF Data Science Centre Github here
