Current Tag used for '''ICU & Medicine''':
<onlyinclude>The [[LTV]] field designates critical care patients on a '''long term ventilator''' (LTV). </onlyinclude>
* '''LTV''' = Long Term Ventilator


== Collection Instruction ==
In '''Critical Care only''', add '''LTV''' to the '''Filter''' field under the "Dispo" tab in the [[patient viewer]] in [[CCMDB.accdb]] if either of the following:
* '''currently home ventilated patient''': patient is already on home/institution ventilation either on an LP 3-10 (type of portable home ventilator).
* '''home ventilation start:''' a decision has been confirmed to start patient on home ventilation during the "current" admission/
**'''consult not sufficient''': a consult to home ventilation service is not sufficient because some patients are turned down by the LTV Service or successfully weaned off of the ventilator.

1.  HSC-CCU Only.
The ICD10 code for this is [[Chronic dependence on mechanical ventilator]].  
Tag started: '''Sept 25, 2003, stopped 2005.'''
Examples: C spine injury; severe COPD.
* '''B''' = CCU patient on B3 only
* '''H''' = CCU patient on H7-CCU only
* '''BH''' = CCU patient on BOTH B3 & H7-CCU during one admission
Purpose was to capture CCU patient location during ICU CCU bed closure and during some renovations.


2.  HSC & STB-CCU patients only.
== Data info ==
Tags used for '''ICU''':
It's stored in a field called [[R_Filter]]. We considered changing that, but the field is legacy so no use in spending time on this.  
* '''CC''' -  intubated/ventilated patient in MICU under care of cardiology service or co-managed with MICU attending
* '''CCN''' - not ventilated but requires inotrope support, IABP or central lines in MICU under the care of cardiology service or co-managed with MICU attending
Patients that '''co-managed''' by CCU & MICU attending service at the teaching hospitals.
This code applies to coronary care patients who are deemed "too sick" for the Coronary Care Unit (CCU) and are managed or co-managed in the Medical ICU because they required one or more of the following:
* ventilation
* inotropes
* central lines
* IABP
