About

Description

Captures vitamin D deficiency symptoms. It is developed for the purpose of the vitamin D study (indications for vitamin D testing/ prescribing).

Methodology

Symptoms to be captured: - bone pain (not due to any other pathology), - muscle weakness (where differentiation given - proximal), - proximal myopathy.

Search term 1: bone. Codes from categories: situation, observable entity, finding and event reviewed and selected.

Search term 2: muscle weakness. All categories reviewed. Terms referring to non-related specific disorders, fatigueable weakness (specific to myasthenia gravis) and distal weakness are excluded.

Search term 3: proximal myopathy. All categories reviewed, relevant selected.

Codelists are developed by a broad community of users for individual study purposes, which may or may not meet the needs of other studies. They should not be thought of as universal definitions of a particular condition.

We don't offer any guarantees about what they do or don't identify. Users should carefully check that any codelist meets their needs, and seek clinical input where appropriate.
