HERON Marmaton introduces Cardiology labs and BMI percentile data

The HERON Marmaton includes two new data types.

  • Cardiology lab data - search for lab orders such as Ejection Fraction, Vascular Ultrasounds, Echocardiogram, and more.
  • BMI Percentile - search BMI by CDC defined ranges for the KUMC pediatric population.

Join us for the 2nd Annual HERON Fishing Trip, a training workshop on July 28, 2014, 8:00AM - 5:00PM in Dykes Library, Room G026. The workshop will include both classroom and hands-on training covering data types, basic and advanced searching, analysis tools, and future work. ​Register for the event.

Any publication that results from a project utilizing HERON should cite grant support (CTSA Award # UL1TR000001).
