See [[STB VAP Committee]].

== Labs ==
* [[Lab Collection Process]]
Remember to count cardiac MRI, echos and angiograms in the labs.

*With the [[STB Electronic Patient Record]] we do not count most labs or pharms until the patient is discharged from the unit, it is the last thing we do.--[[User: LKolesar|LKolesar]]

== Code STEMI ==
Some heart attack patients go straight to the heart cath lab directly from EMS. See '''[[STEMI]]''' for collection instructions for such patients.

== Cardiac Care patients ==
See [[STB Cardiac Care patients]] for information specific to the cardiac service care patients in the STB MICU/SICU unit.

== Patient origins and types ([[Admit_Type_for_APACHE_II]])==
{{Discuss|
* The following seems to be different than what is in [[Admit_Type_for_APACHE_II]] - there it says they have to be directly from OR. 
* These things should be the same for medicine and critical care at STB, no? If any instructions separate from [[Admit Type for APACHE II]] are actually required, they should live in [[ STB General Collection Guide]] instead of here. Ttenbergen 15:40, 2020 October 7 (CDT)

Medical type patients are those under medical service and may have come from a medical ward or from ER or from outside of the hospital.  The medical wards at STB include 
* E5 
* B5 
* E6 
* A6 
* A5 is the cardiology ward (not part of our database)
The surgical type patients are those that are admitted directly from the OR, PARR or any surgical ward.  The surgical wards in SBGH are:   
* CR4 cardiac surgery ward 
* 2B day surg 
** 6AW gyne
***October 2, 2020 - this has changed.  6AW is covid ward and 6AS is covid suspect ward. 
* 4AS surg 
* 7AS 
* 7AW.  

When a pt is admitted from CR5 (CICU) this pt is deemed a surgical type (not cardiac).
