Notes
This field is a summary of the distinct administrative and legal status codes a participant has had recorded in their hospital inpatient records. Administrative and legal status identifies whether a patient has been formally detained under the Mental Health Act or not. This information is not present in HES records dated after 2001.
This field corresponds to the field CATEGORY on the HESIN table; see the Inpatient Data Dictionary (Resource 141140) in Category 2000 for information about the HESIN table.
In order to conduct detailed analyses of this data using the source information, researchers will need to gain access to the HESIN table by adding Field 41259 to their basket.
