Achilles

Automated Characterization of Health Information at Large-scale Longitudinal Evidence Systems (ACHILLES) – descriptive statistics about an OMOP CDM V5 database.

See Atlas Data Sources Interactive Demo

ACHILLES is a platform which enables the characterization, quality assessment and visualization of observational health databases. ACHILLES provides users with an interactive, exploratory framework to assess patient demographics, the prevalence of conditions, drugs and procedures, and to evaluate the distribution of values for clinical observations.

ACHILLES is intended to be implemented by organizations that have patient-level observational health databases available in their local environment. By itself, ACHILLES does not perform study-specific analysis, but can assist exploring the contents of a CDM database to determine whether data exists that can support a study.

ACHILLES consists of:

1. Pre-computations (for database characterization)
2. Achilles Heel for data quality
3. Index generation for better performance with Atlas Data Sources

1. Atlas Data Sources, which provides a series of dashboards to help view the Achilles and Achilles Heel results.

2. Achilles Heel Results Viewer, an RShiny application which helps ETL users investigate Achilles Heel issues.
