MIMIC-Fed is a large, freely available federated COVID-rich ICU database comprising deidentified health-related data from Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center (BIDMC) and Northwestern Memorial Health Center (NHMC) from 2020 to 2022, capturing the evolving distribution shifts in data over this critical time period. The federated database adopts a similar data structure as MIMIC-IV v2.2.

The federated database adopts a similar data structure as MIMIC-IV v2.2.

Notably, Northwestern Memorial Health Center (NHMC) uses the Epic electronic medical records (EMR) system. To make the EMR data available for research and quality assurance, the NM EMR systems transfer selected data into a relational Enterprise Data Warehouse (NM EDW).
Notably, Northwestern Memorial Health Center (NMHC) uses the Epic electronic medical records (EMR) system. To make the EMR data available for research and quality assurance, the NM EMR systems transfer selected data into a relational Enterprise Data Warehouse (NM EDW).

The NM EDW tables are categorized into two primary categories, Fact and Dimension, following data warehousing conventions. As implemented in the NM EDW, Fact tables primarily contain events (such as encounters, admissions, diagnosis events, procedure orders, and medication orders), while Dimension tables describe persistent attributes of entities (patients, procedure names, the medication formulary).

The HOSP module contains data derived from the hospital wide EHR of BIDMC and NHMC. These measurements are predominantly recorded during the hospital stay, though some tables include data from outside the hospital as well (e.g. outpatient laboratory tests in *labevents*).

Laboratory data contains information collected and recorded in the hospital laboratory database. This includes measurements made in wards within the hospital and clinics outside the hospital. Most concepts in this table have been mapped to LOINC codes, an openly available ontology which facilitates interoperability.

For the data sourced from NHMC, Illinois law defines certain categories of information as Sensitive Protected Health Information (SPHI) which require special treatment. SPHI includes genetic counseling but does not include genetic testing.

The ICU module contains data sourced from the clinical information system at the BIDMC (MetaVision (iMDSoft)) and NHMC. MetaVision tables in BIDMC were denormalized to create a star schema where the icustays and d_items tables link to a set of data tables all suffixed with *events*.

Note, the addition of ICU overflow in both BIDMC and NHMC as a `first_careunit` and/or `last_careunit`. In the context of COVID-19, an 'ICU overflow' typically refers to a situation in which intensive care units (ICUs) in a hospital or healthcare facility have reached or exceeded their capacity due to a surge in COVID-19 patients requiring critical care. This overflow occurs when the number of patients needing intensive care for COVID-19 exceeds the available ICU beds.
