A cohort is the group of patients you defined with your query. Your study has as many cohorts as it has queries. Here are three quick ways to look at one: who is in it, which criteria matter, and how many patients may join over time.

To browse one of your cohorts, select its query so it shows in the Query Builder.

Explore Cohort

Explore Cohort shows the demographics of the patients in your cohort, and how common certain diagnoses, procedures, medications and labs are among them.

The study Workspace menu with Explore Cohort selected. The Explore Cohort list on the right offers Demographics, Diagnoses, Oncology, Procedures, Medications, Labs and Genomics.

Analyze Criteria

Analyze Criteria helps you check how feasible your eligibility criteria are. First select your most important term or terms, such as Heart Failure, then select the remaining criteria to see the result. Each level of the funnel shows one criterion's effect on your patient population.

An Analyze Criteria funnel. Patient counts drop level by level, from 1,338,370 at the top to 250 at the bottom, with the percentage change at each level.

Rate of Arrival

Rate of Arrival predicts how many patients will fit your criteria in the coming year, and gives a monthly average based on historical data.

Summary Statistics

Summary Statistics shows basic fact counts for your cohort and, if you are using a larger research network, how those facts are spread geographically.
