 ### New
+* Function `is_new_episode()` to determine patient episodes which are not necessarily based on microorganisms. It also supports grouped variables with e.g. `mutate()` and `summarise()` of the `dplyr` package:
+   ```r
+   example_isolates %>%
+     group_by(hospital_id) %>% 
+     summarise(patients = n_distinct(patient_id),
+               n_episodes_365 = sum(is_new_episode(episode_days = 365)),
+               n_episodes_60 = sum(is_new_episode(episode_days = 60)))
+  ```
 * Functions `mo_is_gram_negative()` and `mo_is_gram_positive()` as wrappers around `mo_gramstain()`. They always return `TRUE` or `FALSE` (except when the input is `NA` or the MO code is `UNKNOWN`), thus always return `FALSE` for species outside the taxonomic kingdom of Bacteria. If you have the `dplyr` package installed, they can even determine the column with microorganisms themselves when used inside `dplyr` verbs:

+#' @details The [is_new_episode()] function is a wrapper around the [first_isolate()] function and can be used for data sets without isolates to just determine patient episodes based on any combination of grouping variables (using `dplyr`), please see *Examples*. Since it runs [first_isolate()] for every group, it is quite slow.
+#' 
+#' All isolates with a microbial ID of `NA` will be excluded as first isolate.
+#' 
+#' ### Why this is so important
 #' To conduct an analysis of antimicrobial resistance, you should only include the first isolate of every patient per episode [(ref)](https:/pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/17304462/). If you would not do this, you could easily get an overestimate or underestimate of the resistance of an antibiotic. Imagine that a patient was admitted with an MRSA and that it was found in 5 different blood cultures the following week. The resistance percentage of oxacillin of all *S. aureus* isolates would be overestimated, because you included this MRSA more than once. It would be [selection bias](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Selection_bias).
 #'
-#' All isolates with a microbial ID of `NA` will be excluded as first isolate.
+#' ### `filter_*()` shortcuts
 #'
-#' The functions [filter_first_isolate()] and [filter_first_weighted_isolate()] are helper functions to quickly filter on first isolates. The function [filter_first_isolate()] is essentially equal to either:

They always return <code>TRUE</code> or <code>FALSE</code> (except when the input is <code>NA</code> or the MO code is <code>UNKNOWN</code>), thus always return <code>FALSE</code> for species outside the taxonomic kingdom of Bacteria.
