Cohort Pathways in Atlas - FAQ

Hi @Chris_Knoll,

Suppose I want to use Cohort pathways to understand what percentage of patients newly diagnosed with COPD have one, two, three, etc emergency room visits after their diagnosis? The general problem is that I would like to know how many times patients in my target cohort enter and exit an event cohort. I’m having trouble implementing this since it seems like the second event in a cohort pathway must be a different event cohort than the first event. If I only have one event cohort and a patient enters and exits the event cohort 10 times their pathway will look the same as a patient who enters and exits the same event cohort only once.

I’m interested in seeing the repeats in the pathway. Is there a way to capture multiple occurrences of the same event as separate steps in a cohort pathway analysis in Atlas?
(By “multiple occurrences” I mean a patient enters, exits, then re-enters and exits the event cohort during one continuous observation period.)
