Description: Perform multistage deterministic linkages and apply case definitions to datasets.
Records are linked by different matching criteria in a specified order of certainty.
The linkage process handles missing data and conflicting matches using this same order.
Track events (e.g. sample collection) and period (e.g. hospital admission) to episodes.
This process permits several options such as episode lengths and recurrence.
Record linkage and episode tracking assign unique group identifiers to matched records.
Duplicate events or records can then be identified or sub-analyses performed within each group.

Title: Record Linkage and Epidemiological Case Definitions in R
Description: An R package for record linkage and implementing epidemiological case definitions in R.
Record linkage is implemented either through a multistage deterministic approach or a probabilistic approach.
Matching records are assigned to unique groups. There are mechanisms to address missing data and conflicting matches across linkage stages.
Track and assign events (e.g. sample collection) and periods (e.g. hospital admission) to unique groups based on a case definition.
The tracking process permits several options such as episode lengths and recurrence.
Duplicate events or records can then be identified for removal or further analyses.
