COVID-19

Overview

The COVID-19-specific variables in i2b2 are based on an ontology developed by Visweswaran, Shyam et al1 in an effort to harmonize COVID-19 data in the electronic medical records across several institutions. There are 50,000+ concepts in this ontology that are available for researchers to query in i2b2. The ontology is publicly available at https://github.com/shyamvis/ACT-COVID-Ontology
