Intraoperative colloid

Intraoperative colloid (clinical table).

Name in the dataset intraop_colloid
Type clinical
Stored in clinical_data.csv
Unit mL

Description

Container sizes are exact counts; partial amounts estimated. Kidney question pending.

Measurement space

-0.500.5true minus recorded (mL)density

A vertical slice through the measurement space: how the true value is spread around any one recorded value. Its shape is uniform.

Time

This variable carries no time of its own in the dataset.

Value

Model kind colloid_rules: rule set by operation
Native step 1 mL
Anchor nearest (convention)

In this release

How wide the true-value distribution is, record by record, over 531 of 6,388 records (all clinical rows) that have one. Computed with the pinned model, aggregates only.

Median p10 to p90
Standard deviation 0 mL 0 to 28.9 mL
95% interval width 0 mL 0 to 95 mL
Mean minus recorded 0 mL 0 to 0 mL

Anchor

Native recording unit, rounding to the nearest assumed; not tested (sparse or exact-count data). See what an anchor is and every variable's anchor.

Worked examples

Example Side Status Summary
Intraoperative fluid balance as a distribution value draft Fluids in minus fluids out, each a heaped charted volume, as a distribution per case: the recording alone makes a balance uncertain by about ±60 mL, and by ±190 mL when the blood loss was written as a round 500 mL.
