Counted manually off EPR.

* Note, C+S report can take 1-3 days, so keep this in mind when doing your counts. 
** is that still relevant with EPR? Do you see that a sample was sent, or only when it is returned? Do you go back to every ICU patient three days after discharge to check for this? Ttenbergen 17:05, 2016 November 28 (CST)

BALs don't imply C+S

When a BAL (Bronchial Aspiration and Lavage) is done, and a specimen is sent for bacterial or fungal cultures, then include in count for C+S. Don't assume when BAL is done that a culture for C&S is sent. Check the EPR.

not included

Counts not included as sputum for C+S:

  • AFB - test done differently and in separate medium so not counted under C+S
  • Viral - totally different testing method, so not counted under C+S. - Dr. Kumar. - Trish Ostryzniuk 17:55, 2014 October 21 (CDT)

  • rejected specimens are not included in lab counts
