Observed Measures

Observed measures report either the raw count of a specific occurrence over a standardized time period or an unadjusted rate.  For example, an observed measure that has a value of "3 cases" between 2010-01-01 and 2010-12-31 has seen 3 instances for Calendar Year 2010.  Observed rates do not undergo risk adjustment - for many of these measures, a risk-adjusted measure is available and in many cases is more desirable.  These measures may be compared to state or national averages, which is then used to populate sig_var_state or sig_var_nation  

 

All Observed Measures

select a.measure_id, a.author_measure_id, a.name_friendly
from measures as a, measure_groups_measures as b
where a.measure_id = b.measure_id 
and b.measure_group_id = 26
