Motivation

The Book of OHDSI, to quote my friend and mentor Kristin Kostka, is "an act of God" that it came to be in how thorough and useful a resource it is for the OHDSI community. Over the past couple years, I have read multiple parts of this book over and over again for my work and research. In general, this book is a useful resource for OHDSI but I do find it to be sometimes limited in utility for the greater observational health community. These are my notes on the book along with various commentary.

Background

Here we aim to provide a general step­by­step guide to the design and implementation of an observational study with the OHDSI tools Note: In this case, this is the critical flaw of this book when tells i y about studies. It limits itself to only thinking within the context of the available HADES Tools when there is SO much more going on!
