comorbidipy 0.4.4

Python Boilerplate contains all the boilerplate you need to create a Python package.

comorbidipy

Python package to calculate comorbidity scores including Charlson Comorbidity Score and Elixhauser Score and their weighted variants as well as other clinical risk scores.

The comorbidity function of this library is effectively a rewrite of the excellent R library comorbidity (<https://github.com/ellessenne/comorbidity/>) by Alessandro Gasparini (<https://www.ellessenne.xyz/>). Please check out his work and the excellent documentation he has produced. The Python API has been modified slightly to allow adjusting for age. Only the comorbidity function from that library has been reproduced here at present.

Comorbidipy also includes additional clinical risk calculators listed under Features.
