Dear list,
I am thinking of designing a monitoring system for a short-term community
hospital ward with 9 beds
Among variables are
Patient ID
indate (admission date) <dd/mm/yyyy> inhour admission hour ##
outdate (discharge date) <dd/mm/yyyy> outhour discharge hour ## (not always
recorded)
Age, sex diagnose1, diagnose2 diagnose3, treatment elements etc.
Does anybody have a hint on how I can monitor utilization rate, i.e. how
many beds are occupied each day, and average utilization rate per week?
In Epi Info I would put up a sequence of commands that runs through the
datafile for each consecutive day to count number of patients. in EpiInfo
the PROCESS command would run thhrough the file and do the maths
I thought a defined variable inhouse # and a counter date
gen d testdate ="01/09/2013" // Opening date
if testdate < today
then
if testdate >=indate and testdate <=outdate then
inhouse=1 else inhouse=0
endif
testdate=testdate + 1
else goto end
endif
Then route to an aggregate file date, count.
PROCESS
But there seems to be no equivalent command in EpiData. I have not figured
out if aggregate or stab could be used for such a purpose. Anye ideas or
hints?

Hi
I am a psychiatric epidemiologist from Uganda and I use epidata for our community research. I have downloaded EpiDataentryclient 1.5.1.0 and while installing it, I was asked for a password.
Can anyone provide me with this password.
Thank you & very best,
Ethel
Hi Ether,
It seems to me that it is asking for your laptop's administrator password.
You need to contact your IT administrator.

Kære EpiData.
Jeg har fået et problem med at udregne alder og behandlingsvarighed, hvilket jeg slet ikke kan forstå, da jeg synes jeg har gjort det samme som i tidligere rec/chk files. Jeg har prøvet at kigge omkring i Jeres databaser efter hjælp, men kan ikke finde ud af, hvor mit problem stammer fra.
Jeg har vedhæftet rec og chk. filer, kan I finde fejlen?
Det er for variablerne age og time, at jeg har problemer.
mvh Eva

Ok, thank you. I'm waiting for scripting possibilities ...
Labeling is not a solution for me, because Field2 depends on Field1 only
when it has "A". If Field1 has different values, then Field2 must remain
empty and still writeable.

You can do this by adding value labels to Field1:
label for "A" is "K"
etc.
Then, on the Extended tab, choose to copy the label to Field2 Make
Field2 NoEnter
Scripting is not yet implemented, but is coming. This will allow much
greater flexibility.

Hello list,
I'm new to Epidata, just building my first entry form.
Is there a chance to have an automatic value in a field depending on the
entered value in another field, i.e:
Field_1 (entered by user): "A"
Field_2 (automatically filled with "K", when user has entered "A" in
Field_1): "K"
I could not find a possibility to realise this by JUMPS or in the
EXTENDED register card.
I saw there were User Defined Functions in former releases of EPIDATA.
Is this no longer possible in the new epidatamanager?
Thanks for your attention!
Christian
Hi,
I’ve been trying to use Epidata for data entry purposes. Excellent program!
However, I noticed that in the current version of the Entry Client 1.4.4.2 the “Open” menu will not do anything (both on the drop down menu File->Open and the Button on the program). I downloaded the test version 1.5.1.0 and it seems to have the same bug as well.
I can work around this by opening the file in Manager first and then opening it (as it shows in the “Open Recent ->” option). Otherwise it will not open a file.
I don’t know if anyone has noticed this? I have been trying to see if I can use this for data collection.
Thanks again for the excellent effort!
