**2018 May 04: '''STOP''' emailing Myrna and [[p:Trish Ostryzniuk |Trish]].  This is the end of the peak flu season for 2017-18.


There is some confusion right now which definition of influenza we will follow. However we are in the middle of flu season and people are off for holidays so we can't make final decisions. So we will (for now)start a second project to use the [[Influenza in ICD10]] definition.

=== Definition is known to be different from ICD10/WHO/CDC/WRHA etc ===
*I am confused, as the data collection instructions above say to enter this for any patient who is given a full course of tamiflu. If we have a suspected case, who either dose not get swabbed, or the swab comes back negative, then we do not track these suspected cases anywhere? I have some patients who have a swab ordered, but I cannot find any results on EPR or e-chart. This would mean that all of these suspected and treated cases would not be documented. My only coding choice would be tracheobronchitis-no culture sent or resulted, or Pneumonia-no culture sent or resulted.[[User:Mlagadi|Mlagadi]] 09:19, 2017 December 29 (CST)
The definition of collection for this tmp study is known to be different from definitions used elsewhere. Please use this definition for this tmp project. If the definition is '''not clear''', as usual please ask for confirmation.
** Hey Michele, from my reading of both influenza tracking and treated, I do the following:
*1) if suspected and treated with a full course of antiviral,and no swab sent or swab = negative enter influenza treated (note swab results in
notes field)
*2) if suspected and treated with a full course of antiviral and swab = positive then enter influenza with positive culture date
*3) if swab sent and no treatment given and swab result= positive then enter influenza with positive result date (I would leave a comment
in the notes field)
*4) if swab sent, and no treatment and swab result = negative, enter nothing (I note the influenza results in the notes field)
*5) if no swab sent and no treatment and swab result =positive, enter influenza with positive result date (comment in notes field)
*6) if no swab sent and treated with antiviral for full course, enter influenza treated (same as #1 above)
Hope this helps,I may have missed a scenario so feel free to add to this,or maybe I have misinterpreted the instructions! [[User:Lkaita|Lisa Kaita]] 12:04, 2017 December 29 (CST)

Dates

    • 2018 May 04: STOP emailing Myrna and Trish. This is the end of the peak flu season for 2017-18.

Collection process

There is some confusion right now which definition of influenza we will follow. We are in the middle of flu season and people are off for holidays so we can't make final decisions therefore, we will (for now) start second project and use the Influenza in ICD10 definition.

Data Collection Instructions

For any patient who either:

  • receives a full course of treatment of tamiflu/oseltamivir or any other anti-influenza agent
  • starts a course of Tamiflu but is discharged, dies or is transferred to an area we don't collect on before the full course is finished

Enter the following in tmp:

  • Project: Influenza treated
  • Item: Influenza treated
  • Date: date of treatment start
    • if started before admission and the data is not known, use admission date
  • Time, checkbox and comment fields are not used

Don't use TMP as notes

Please do not enter this TMP until you have actually influenza treated. Use the Notes field on you laptop as a reminder if needed.

Definition is known to be different from ICD10/WHO/CDC/WRHA etc

The definition of collection for this tmp study is known to be different from definitions used elsewhere. Please use this definition for this tmp project. If the definition is not clear, as usual please ask for confirmation.

See: Purpose this tmp project and reporting

This tmp study is unrelated to whether pt was tested

This tmp is only intended to track that they were treated. We also had collected separately (Influenza tracking) which tracked whether a patient was tested for influenza and what the result was.

Transferred patients

  • If the patient is transferred to an area where we don't collect data, then consider this a lost to follow up and patient is considered to be treated. Please in record in the notes section how many days of of tamiflu/oseltamivir or any other anti-influenza agent they recieved.
  • If the patient is transferred to an area where we are collecting data then please attempt to follow up to see if the patient was continued on 5 days or more on an of tamiflu/oseltamivir or any other anti-influenza agent.If less than 5 days they are not considered influenza treated.

potential solution to full treatment/partial treatment collection

Discussion
