==Purpose==   
==Purpose==   
To capture the number of patient days waiting for transfer from acute ICU bed to IICU bed
To capture the number of patient days waiting for transfer from acute ICU bed to [[HSC IICU]] bed.


== Data Collection ==

For every Critical Care patient who has a consult to IICU, obtain the date and time order was written by ICU requesting IICU consult.  
For every Critical Care patient who has a consult to IICU, obtain the date and time order was written by ICU requesting IICU consult. This info goes into the temp file of the patient waiting for an IICU bed (ie. the sending profile).

=== Consult Unknown ===
* '''Project:''' [[HasTmpEntry::IICU consult]]
If you can't find any documentation of when a consult was made, enter "consult unknown" and check the checkbox for  dt missing
* '''Item:'''
 
** consult accepted by IICU
Background: Especially at STB, given it is mostly EPR, the IICU docs rarely, if ever, write into EPR.
** consult rejected by IICU
We are not so much looking to track when consults filled as much as what pt disposition is ultimately.

==Questions==
=== IICU Consulted but pt deteriorates before transfer  ===
*{{Discussion}}
If IICU has been consulted and accepted but then the patient's condition deteriorates prior to getting a bed in IICU and is no longer a candidate for IICU then '''leave original consult & accept date and use the [[Notes field]] to provide further info.
*HSC IICU collectors - when a patient comes from another site outside province, would you be able to see in chart when consult was requested by the other ICU and when IICU service accepted?  [[User:TOstryzniuk|Trish Ostryzniuk]] 11:35, 2018 November 14 (CST)
** I have never had this case before, but I think it all depends on what is photocopied and sent with the patient from the referring facility.--[[User:Jvelasco|Jvelasco]] 12:13, 2018 November 14 (CST)


**{{Discussion}}  At STB we currently have a patient waiting for an IICU bed.  I can easily see when the original consult was written by the STB staff, however I do not know where the reply from HSC IICU people is written.  Please advise where I would find this information. Is it written on EPR and if so where on EPR is it written.  I spoke with our CRN today about this and she said that the IICU doctors come to see the patient only about 24 hours before they actually go to IICU, once a bed is about to clear there.  She did not know where their "acceptance" would be charted or even it is charted.  She thought it might just be done verbally.  I cannot say myself because we have never had to collect this information before.  Please advise how to obtain the "acceptance" part of this tmp request. --[[User:LKolesar|LKolesar]] 10:29, 2018 November 14 (CST)
***Stb is a different, given it is mostly EPR.  The IICU docs rarely, if ever, write into EPR.
***For this pt, just track from day of IICU consult request written and then we can figure out what his/her ultimate disposition is

=== Why not put this in Transfer Ready DtTm? ===
=== Why not put this in [[Transfer Ready DtTm]]? ===
* Why do we need a project to determine the patient days waiting for transfer when we already put in the [[Transfer Ready DtTm]]? I suggest we just put another option in the drop down for transfer ready which would read "waiting for IICU bed" and then you would have the information you need without a new tmp item.  --[[User:LKolesar|LKolesar]] 07:59, 2018 November 6 (CST)

** The definition for [[Transfer Ready DtTm]] says to enter the first time they are transfer ready. This may not be the first time. Also, we prefer not to add temporary data to existing fields because it would change their definition with special cases, and mess with cross-checks that are based on those fields.
