MedDRA Data as SAS Formats

Category: Data Management, Software and Web Development

Tags: data

Overview To use MedDRA data with SAS the ascii data files can be read into SAS datasets or the available datasets can be used directly. These datasets can be merged with available MedDRA coded data, possibly using indexes. This paper describes a method to process the (generated) datasets into SAS formats that can be applied directly without the need to merge datasets. In that way terms of the lower levels, like the Lower Level Term (LLT), can be directly converted into each of their associated terms at higher levels. Formats can be made for stepping up from each code level to each higher ordered code level. Additionally all codes can be formatted with their names (descriptions), abbreviations or whatever other information is available in the datasets.
