Automated Detection and Classification of Type 1 Versus Type 2 Diabetes Using Electronic Health Record Data

Abstract: OBJECTIVETo create surveillance algorithms to detect diabetes and classify type 1 versus type 2 diabetes using structured electronic health record (EHR) data.RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODSWe extracted 4 years of data from the EHR of a large, multisite, multispecialty ambulatory practice serving ∼700,000 patients. We flagged possible cases of diabetes using laboratory test results, diagnosis codes, and prescriptions. We assessed the sensitivity and positive predictive value of novel combinations of these data to c… Show more

“…Second, classification of diabetes status is necessarily imperfect, although sensitivity is estimated at 91% and has a positive predictive value of 94% (46). Accurately distinguishing between type 1 and type 2 diabetes using electronic diagnosis data or duration of diabetes is not possible (7). Third, CV events were based on primary hospital discharge diagnoses and were not adjudicated.…”

“…Diabetes status was classified using a previously validated algorithm (5,79). Study criteria for diabetes required either one or more inpatient diabetes diagnosis codes (ICD-9 Clinical Modification 250.x, 357.2, 366.41, 362.01–362.07) or any combination of two or more of the following events on separate days no more than 2 years apart: 1 ) A1C ≥6.5% (48 mmol/mol), 2 ) fasting plasma glucose ≥126 mg/dL, 3 ) random plasma glucose ≥200 mg/dL, 4 ) outpatient visit diabetes diagnosis code (same codes as that used for inpatients), or 5 ) any filled prescription for a glucose-lowering medication.…”

“…Clinical algorithms for types I and 2 diabetes have been developed in the ESPnet system using ICD-9 codes for diabetes, an elevated fasting glucose or hemoglobin A 1c , prescription for an oral hypoglycemic agent other than metformin, or a prescription for insulin not during pregnancy (28). The optimized algorithm for type 1 diabetes had a sensitivity of 97% and a PPV of 88%.…”

“…These included demographic variables (age, race/ethnicity), type of diabetes, body mass index, hemoglobin A1c, estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR), utilization (recent hospitalization, emergency department, and severe hypoglycemic event), important comorbidities (retinopathy, atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease, depression, heart failure), and medication use (insulin, metformin, and number of classes of glucose lowering medications). Diabetes type was defined using a modification of an algorithm developed by Klompas et al (11). For BMI, hemoglobin A1c, and serum creatinine, we used the most recent value in the 2 years preceding the initial index date.…”
