GLOBAL MAP DATA DICTIONARY #798.2 -- ROR SELECTION RULE FILE 3/24/25 PAGE 1 STORED IN ^ROR(798.2, (329 ENTRIES) SITE: WWW.BMIRWIN.COM UCI: VISTA,VISTA (VERSION 1.5) ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The ROR SELECTION RULES file contains definitions of the selection rules that are used to screen patients for addition to the registries. There are two kinds of rules: top-level and lower level. If a rule is referenced by the ROR REGISTRY PARAMETERS file, it is the top-level rule. Non-zero value of any top-level rule expression directly determines that the patient should be added to the corresponding registry. Lower level rules are referenced only by other rules (by rule macros in the expressions). Their expressions are evaluated in the proper order, and the result values are used in the expressions of other rules. Lower level rules have an indirect impact on the final result and can be used for complex processing of linked files and multiples. For example, a lower level rule can calculate maximum and minimum values of a parameter in the sub-file, and a top-level rule will analyze these values and decide if the patient should be added to the registry. Moreover, they could be used to split a very complex rule into several simpler rules. Records of the file are uniquely identified by the rule name (the "A" primary key and the uniqueness index "B" are used for this purpose).
