Enter a name and description for your query, provide your HUM number (for your approved, active study) select the Query Mode (PHI), then click Create New Query.

You may also select an existing query and create a download for it, by editing the cohort query and toggling the Query Mode to PHI. Provide your HUM number when prompted.

Select the Output View Selection filter (data domain) for which you have been granted access. For this example, we will select Demographic.

Check the box beside the desired output to expand the selections. Click each item to change the symbol to a green plus sign beside the column descriptions to add to the view. Items remaining with a red x and strike-through will not be included.

By selecting these data items, you will “save” the output into your Output Views (lower right hand corner of the screen). No additional “Save” button is required.

Only if you require them, select Direct Patient Identifiers from the Output View Filter (if approved), and check the box to select PatientInfo.

As you click the data item, a green plus sign appears indicating that you will include these specific identifiers. DataDirect will require you to confirm that you need to view this sensitive data. Click Yes to proceed. Acknowledge this for each data point you require.

Continue to select Output View filters and criteria as needed.

Scrolling down in the Diagnosis window, you can access and select Charlson Elixhauser Scores (depending on your approval).

Continue to build the Output View (Procedure, Medication, Laboratory, Nursing Flowsheet) per your approval and your needs.
