*if there is only one location, Start date/time= first location start date/time and End Date/time= [[Dispo_DtTm]]  
*if there is only one location, Start date/time= first location start date/time and End Date/time= [[Dispo_DtTm]]  


 
==Reported as==
* Average ICU LOS (in days to 1 decimal place)
Mean, Median, Sum (in days to 1 decimal place) per location per site
* Median ICU LOS (in days to 1 decimal place)
* Total ICU LOS (in days to 1 decimal place)
===Numerator===
For Average ICU LOS,  the numerator is Sum of Length of ICU stay of all discharges
===Denominator===
For Average ICU LOS, the denominator is Number of discharges
 
==Data Sources==
* [[Admit DtTm]] and [[Dispo DtTm]]
* Can also be taken from the [[Created_Variables_CC table]] of [[CFE]]

==SAS Program==
The SAS program to get the LOS is X:\Julie\SAS_CFE\CFE_macros\logphi.sas and datetimes.sas
S:\MED\MED_CCMED\Julie\SAS_CFE\CFE_macros\prep_Tmp_BoardServiceTransfer_15Sept2021.sas

* Critical Care Directors, Critical Care Unit Managers and WRHA Outcome Improvement Team Committee
* Internal Medicine Directors and Ward Managers
* Shared Health Decision Support Officer for Critical Care Dashboard (HSC only)
This is what we usually mean when we say Length of Stay; see LOS for other uses.
referred to as the Length of Stay (LOS) per record Before Oct 1, 2020 - a record is defined as an admission in specific Internal Medicine ward or Critical Care Unit as shown in Site_and_Location_table
Starting Oct 1, 2020 - a record for Critical Care, see Definition of a Critical Care Laptop Admission and a record for Internal Medicine, see Definition of a Medicine Laptop Admission.
 
LOS is simply calculated as the difference between the End Date/Time (i.e. Dispo DtTm) and Start Date/Time (i.e. first Service tmp entry) of stay. Start Date and time is defined by either of these fields: Accept DtTm
Arrive DtTm
first Service Start DtTm, see Service_tmp_entry and is the same as the Accept DtTm
 
End Date and time is defined by the Dispo DtTm
 
 
For example:
Start Date/Time: 20 May 2008 11:30
End Date/Time: 21 May 2008 17:45
LOS_Record = 1.260 days
What is actually being reported is the mean and median of this value.
