As discussed in the [[:Category:Critical Care Review Group|Critical Care Review Group]], our current collection practice is likely to miss whether a patient had an autopsy. When the patient dies we do not necessarily go back to their chart to find out if an autopsy happened.
[[Category:L Log table Legacy]]
If this data is unreliable we should not be collecting it in this way. The steering committee has accepted this recommendation. (right Trish?)
[[Category:2016 Time and Place changes]]
 
[[Category:Legacy Data]]
We plan to stop collecting whether or not an Autopsy was done. The current version of [[CCMDB.mdb]] still requires this field to be completed, and the current version of HanDBase will not be changed to remove this field, so we need to find a way to implement this. To that end, the [[Postponed or rejected CCMDB changes#Take out Autopsy YES OR NO | topic]] has been added to postponed changes log because we are waiting for further, bigger changes in the collection of discharge data.

In the meantime we could stop collecting "autopsy" now. I could change the CCMDB.mdb send functionality to always send autopsy as "no". This would be a quick and easy change. Trish, what are your thoughts? [[User:Ttenbergen|Ttenbergen]] 10:27, 23 April 2009 (CDT)
