Any differences in mortality between units or over time should be examined for differences in patient population first. Other Factors affecting mortality include structural and process-related aspects of care. ==Sampling Plan / Procedure== ===Inclusion Criteria=== * 100% of all patients physically present in an unit bed and have a [[Dispo]] of one of the following: ** Died - to morgue ** Died - to OR ** Died - to other ICU ===Exclusion Criteria=== If the patient has a [[Dispo]] "Died - *" in more than one location, only the first one is counted. (E.g. for organ donors) ==Definition and Derivation== ===Numerator=== Num = Total number of patients who died ===Denominator=== Denom = Total number of patients ===Formula=== Unit Mortality (%) = Num / Denom * 100 ==Data Sources== * [[Dispo]] ==SAS Program== {{S:\MED\MED_CCMED}}Julie\SAS_CFE\CFE_macros\logphiunit.sas == Data Integrity Checks == * [[Query NDC_dx_implying_death_across_encounters]] * [[Query check ICD10 dx implying death must have appropriate dispo]] == Data use == see infobox == Change Log == == Related articles == {{Related Articles}} [[Category:Admit/Discharge]] [[Category:End-of-life related data]]
