# eICU Collaborative Research Database v2.0

The eICU Collaboratvie Research Database v2.0 was released on 17 May 2018. This was a major release which involved a schema change, potentially breaking compatibility with existing code.

Changes include:

* #68: The medication table had the following modifications: `drugname` and `dosage` can now be NULL. Frequency of administration has been added in a new column called `frequency`.
* #69: In all tables columns which had a suffix of `time`, `time24`, and `year` were removed, *except* for a single instance in the patient table. These columns were redundant and can be easily rederived if needed using offsets and joining to the patient table.
* #70: Ten tables have been added to the public release. They are: customLab, intakeOutput, microLab, note, nurseAssessment, nurseCare, nurseCharting, physicalExam, respiratoryCare, respiratoryCharting. Documentation of these tables is available online.
* #71: Hospitals which do not have any corresponding patient admissions have been removed from the hospital table.

In addition, the website now contains Jupyter notebooks for each table which highlight potential usage of the data.
