Where can I find whether the patient was on ventilation at a particular time stamp?

This is non-trivial and we welcome collaborative effort on this task!

Will I find this information in nursecharting table?

[tompollard]

There is some information relevant to ventilation times in nursecharting, as well as other tables like respiratorycharting. We are working on an approach and will post an update in this repository when we have made more progress.

There are "ventilator" and "nasal cannula" as oxygen administration devices. Can we safely assume that “ventilator” means that someone was intubated?

[rgmark]

I think that is a generally safe assumption, but for a few patients this may refer to non-invasive ventilation via tight-fitting mask and positive inspiratory pressure. Roger

Maybe this helps: using the code from @alistairewj's sofarespi query I'm trying to use this chunk of the code to find whether the patient was on ventilation the first 24 hours of admission:

Let me know if it's useful
