The SMQ number code

SMQzzSC

SMQ zz Scope

Char

BROAD, NARROW

Cond

The search strategy for SMQs can be narrow or broad. The preferred terms that are narrow in scope have high specificity for identifying events of interest, whereas the broad terms have high sensitivity. By definition, all narrow terms are also considered within the broad scope. Therefore, to summarize all broad terms, terms with either narrow or broad would be considered. Will be null for terms that do not meet the criteria.

Conditional on whether SMQ analysis is done

SMQzzSCN

SMQ zz Scope (N)

Num

1, 2

Perm

Will be null for terms that do not meet the criteria

Char


Cond

The CQ name or name of the adverse event of special interest category based on a grouping of terms. Would be blank for terms that are not in the CQ.
