| The CCU patient chart has a flow sheet for the nurses to fill out their vital signs and patient assessments. If the patient has had an acute MI, a care map type of flow sheet is used. This has four steps as the patient progresses in their recovery. A second option for nurses’ charting is a CCU flow sheet for all other types of patients other than acute MI. (examples: arrythmias, pre op optimizations, cardiomyopathy, chest pain NYD, etc. ). Occasionally a COR sheet (like those used on the wards) can be continued in CCU and even the Y2 procedure note page has been continued on a rare occasion for a patient who needs some CCU management post angio.

| == Overflows in MSICU and ICCS == | | == Unit admission log book == |
| MSICU and ICCS can also have CCU patients as CCU overflows. They will often be located in one of these areas if they require intubation and /or IABP. However, they are still attended by the CCU doctors and the CCU data collector must enter them as a CCU patient. They usually remain under CCU unless further multi system issues exist that the CCU attending wishes to transfer the care to the ICU. In this case the patient is discharged from CCU and admitted to the ICU and the ICU data collector will then start a profile and continue to follow this patient. (insure that the respective [[TISS]] sheet follows the patient as they are moved between units if they continue to be a CCU pt.) Make sure the overflow is marked in the variable 5 slot.

| == STEMI code for From/To slots ===
| | Admission and discharges unit Log book is found at the Unit Ward Clerk Des |
| A code [[Admit_From_%26_Discharged_To#STEMI | STEMI]] is when a patient comes directly to the heart cath lab via EMS. This will result in an admit code from home (ZZ). If a patient comes from the heart cath lab you need to put where they were prior to this. For example Dauphin ER or ICU.
| |
| If the patient was at St.B. ER but was transferred from another hospital prior to this, put the first entry hospital in the admit from. On the paper log sheet we put a small heart figure to indicate all primary angios in the admit from space but you also need to put where the patient was just prior, which is also written in this space.

| * This doesn't actually tell me when to use the STEMI code.[[User:Ttenbergen|Ttenbergen]] 16:36, 1 October 2009 (CDT)
| |
| * Is STEMI ever used in the "to" slot? [[User:Ttenbergen|Ttenbergen]] 16:36, 1 October 2009 (CDT)
| |
| * I think we should integrate this completely in [[Admit_From_%26_Discharged_To#STEMI]] and only link there from here. [[User:Ttenbergen|Ttenbergen]] 16:36, 1 October 2009 (CDT)

| ** CODE STEMI is a city wide alert system (similiar to a CODE BLUE) that is called on the PA system in the hospital to alert specific personnel to assist with this patient. For the data base purposes, after discussing this with Trish, she just wanted to capture this specific situation by the from code being ZZ and the first diagnosis being angiogram or plasty. This has nothing to do with the actual STEMI diagnosis which is usually coded with the specific location of the MI. (like inferior, posterior, anterior, etc.) I think all the nurses who are data collectors are aware of the difference here. --[[User:LKolesar|LKolesar]] 10:37, 2 October 2009 (CDT)

| *** I realize that dx STEMI and admit-from STEMI are not the same thing. I suggested moving this to the admit-from Stemi documentation [[Admit_From_%26_Discharged_To#STEMI | here]].[[User:Ttenbergen|Ttenbergen]] 14:46, 2 October 2009 (CDT)

| == Diagnostic Coding vs Admit-From== | | == Ward Location == |
| Primary angiograms are those that go first to the angio room and then to CCU afterwards. In this case the first admit diagnosis should be angiogram, then angioplasty, then stent, then the MI with location subcode and then other items like CHF or TNK if applicable.
| | ACCU is located in SBGH on 5AW. The unit is referred to in our boarding locations as CCUO, but remains ACCU in the pre-admit location, previous location & dispo fields on the profile home page. |
| The exception to this rule is when the patient has a cardiac arrest before arriving in CCU or has cardiogenic shock. These will then be coded first and then the primary angio sequence. If you are past the quota for number of admit diagnosis codes, you can use only angioplasty if necessary (take out angiogram and stent if needed). | |
|
| |
|
| If the patient comes from an ICU (different hospital) do not use the MI as the first diagnosis. Other options could be post infarct angina, unstable angina, chf, cardiogenic shock, etc. The second diagnosis could be the MI.

| * Is this truly special to the CCU? Let's be careful to document general info in the general locations, e.g. [[Lab Collection Process]][[User:Ttenbergen|Ttenbergen]] 16:36, 1 October 2009 (CDT)
| |
| * This could likely be excluded, I just wanted to remind the CCU data collector because angiograms are not counted very often elsewhere. Could take this out though no problem. --[[User:LKolesar|LKolesar]] 10:40, 2 October 2009 (CDT)

| ===Pharmacy=== | | == Location of patient chart components == |
| Nitropatch amount is always one, only the number of days is counted. Observe all infusions in CCU and try to keep track of how many doses and days the patient is on the infusions. The rest of the pharmacy is easy to track on the EPR. Infusion drugs can be neglected to be signed for in the electronic MAR. Infusions commonly used in CCU are all antiarrythmics, all inotropes, some vasopressors and some antihypertensives.
| | Most information is on EPR. There still are heart cath reports stored on paper but usually heart caths also are reported on EPR. Echo reports on paper chart. |

| * Again, is this truly special to the CCU? This should probably be in one of [[:Category:Pharmacy]] instead. Those are a bit of a mess, though, and may not be worth upgrading for now if we are going to change how they are collected soon. [[User:Ttenbergen|Ttenbergen]] 16:36, 1 October 2009 (CDT)

| ==[[TISS]]== | | == Charting Note == |
| If the patient is a primary angio, item #91 (what's 91) should not be marked. However if the patient had a plasty, #96 operative procedure can (can or must?) be marked. If the angio happens as a complication (after arriving in CCU), then #91 can be marked.
| | The ACCU patient chart now only uses the ICU flow sheet. |
| | |
| If the patient has a temporary pacemaker, make sure one of the Tiss items #15 or 16 is marked for each day the patient has the pacemaker. If the patient goes for a permanent pacemaker, the OR #96 must be marked and then the next day the #15 or 16 should not be marked.
| |
| If the permanent pacemaker is done and then the patient goes to the cardiology ward afterwards and does not return to CCU, #96 is not marked and the code permanent pacemaker is not entered as a complication. The patient is instead transferred to the OR and the profile is completed.
