Turner syndrome (TS) is a genetic condition occurring in ~1 in 2000 females characterized by the complete or partial absence of the second sex chromosome. TS research faces similar challenges to many other pediatric rare disease conditions, with homogenous, single‐center, underpowered studies. Secondary data analyses utilizing electronic health record (EHR) have the potential to address these limitations; however, an algorithm to accurately identify TS cases in EHR data is needed. We developed a computable phenotype to identify patients with TS using PEDSnet, a pediatric research network. This computable phenotype was validated through chart review; true positives and negatives and false positives and negatives were used to assess accuracy at both primary and external validation sites. The optimal algorithm consisted of the following criteria: female sex, ≥1 outpatient encounter, and ≥3 encounters with a diagnosis code that maps to TS, yielding an average sensitivity of 0.97, specificity of 0.88, andC‐statistic of 0.93 across all sites. The accuracy of any estradiol prescriptions yielded an averageC‐statistic of 0.91 across sites and 0.80 for transdermal and oral formulations separately. PEDSnet and computable phenotyping are powerful tools in providing large, diverse samples to pragmatically study rare pediatric conditions like TS.
