PhenotypeLibrary is a repository to store the content of the OHDSI Phenotype Library (Library). These phenotype/cohort definitions have under gone an OHDSI best practice Phenotype Development and Evaluation Process by the OHDSI Phenotype Development and Evaluation Work group (work group). This Work group, through a OHDSI community wide collaboration effort, evaluates and maintains cohort definitions in an Atlas instance. Definitions that have graduated through this process are published in this repository, and are thus considered high quality cohort definitions.
cohortId’s in this repository are persistent (similar to OMOP Concept Id) i.e. once published it maybe expected to stay the same between releases of the Phenotype library (i.e. backward compatible). Version numbers in this repository follows HADES convention, and changes (addition or deletions) are reported as News. Work group will be responsible to maintain a cadence for the cohort life cycle - including deprecation and additions.
