Document states below :
Initial Patient Population 2: Children 6-12 years of age who were dispensed an ADHD medication during the Intake Period and who remained on the medication for at least 210 days out of the 300 days following the IPSD, and who had a visit during the measurement period.
Whereas under Population Criteria 2,Initial Patient Population 2 has below conditions
R: "Occurrence A of Medication, Active: ADHD Medications (cumulative medication duration >= 210 day(s))" starts after start of "Occurrence A of Medication, Dispensed: ADHD Medications"
OR: "Occurrence A of Medication, Active: ADHD Medications (cumulative medication duration >= 210 day(s))" starts concurrent with "Occurrence A of Medication, Dispensed: ADHD Medications
As per Initial Patient Population ,Patient should take medication for at least 210 days out of the 300 days whereas under Population Criteria 2 it states only cumulative medication duration >= 210 day.here no validation with respect to 300 days is specified in document.
Kindly suggest do we need to consider cumulative duration>=210 days out of 300 days?
