This project tracks where and when a patient arrives into a "borrowed bed".  
This isn't so much a project as way to track how patients physically move around the hospital. See [[Change from Service Location to Service, Boarding Loc and Transfer Ready DtTm tmp entry]] for information about it and why we needed to change it to this model.
 
This project tracks where and when a patient '''arrives''' into a new physical location under the Medicine or ICU service.  


A "borrowed bed" is when a patient is not physically located in the place designated by the [[Service/Location]].
== Data Collection Instructions ==
=== How to enter this ===
You can use the [["make loc" button]] to generate and pre-populate these entries.  


*Critical Care will track '''all instances''' of bed borrows and moves between beds
*Use tmp fields:
*Medicine will track '''only the initial borrow location'''  
** Project: '''{{PAGENAME}}'''
 
** start_dt and start_tm:
This new project replaces [[Project Borrow arrive]].
*** enter as per Cognos initially
*** before setting [[RecordStatus]] to complete, change the '''first''' Boarding Loc DtTm to be consistent with the First [[Service tmp entry]]; see [[DtTm for First Boarding Loc and First Service]]
** checkbox: not used for this project <!-- was used for cross checks in data before 2020-10-15 -->
** Item:
*** for the initial unit or ER and each physical move to another unit, enter the location by using the "make loc" button in [[Patient Viewer Tab Cognos ADT2]]
*** please note that if a boarding location appears in COGNOS but the patient does NOT move/arrive to that boarding location, do NOT enter that boarding location.  We only capture boarding locations where the patient physically arrives
**** if the ward is not available in the dropdown, please notify Tina, Lisa, and Julie; Tina/Lisa will add the location to the dropdown and update the wiki as needed; Julie will note the change for her reports. eg. during the various COVID waves, many surgical wards were used for medicine overflow or COVID patients
**** leave what is in Cognos, the main office doesn't use this part for anything for home locations, but it can be used to crosscheck accuracy.
* '''no location entered''' is the default
** that entry will not be allowed in a complete record; it is automatically deleted when by Cognos Make Loc button, but needs to be removed before setting a record to complete if it is still present.
<!--
*emailed to see if this automatic entry is still useful now that things are entered with make loc button [[User:Ttenbergen|Ttenbergen]] 13:05, 2023 January 25 (CST)
** We discussed this and decided to leave for now, as we don't manually delete it is populated by COGNOS when we choose the Make location button [[User:Lkaita|Lisa Kaita]] 13:59, 2023 February 1 (CST) -->


This project does '''not''' replace [[ICUotherService]]; we will still need this item in the event that both the bed and the service are both borrowed. Administration at STB want this data.  
==== Exception: no two with same DtTm ====
* '''No two different boarding locations should have same start_dt and start_tm.'''  
** if two boarding locations have the same Start_DtTm, this is an error, change one to be off by one minute, put a note in "notes" section to check boarding location to confirm the correct date and time for the boarding locations of concern.
** example: Not infrequently, the COGNOS data for HSC_SICU patients coming from the ER,  will show the first service, first boarding location(ER) and the second boarding location(SICU) as all having the same start_DtTm. Our solution for this is to change the, second boarding location (SICU) to be off by one minute.  We then put a note in the notes section to confirm the boarding location(s) date and time and the first service_DtTm.


== Data Collection Instructions ==
=Exception=
In [[L TmpV2 table |TMP]], a "no borrow" entry will automatically be added to every new Critical Care patient's record.  
* when a patient is transferred to one of our units, ideally the first service and first [[boarding Loc]] should be the same date and time.  However, often they are not.  In these cases, always use the first service entry line as the date and time for first service and first [[boarding Loc]]  (make a note in the notes field to change to the first [[Boarding Loc]] date and time at a later date when reviewing the chart)
{{Discuss | we will likely need to add this to each Med pt as well}}
*example- patient transfers from ICU to medical unit.  first medicine service=May10@1400, First boarding loc=May10@1630.  While the correct first service and first [[Boarding Loc]] should be May 10@1630, enter the first service date and time from COGNOS (May 10@1400) for both the first service and first [[boarding Loc]].  There are two reasons for this: if you change the first service date and time without excluding that service it will fill up your CSS and you will not get the associated service end date and time. If you exclude that service entry all together than you will also not get the associated service end date and time.  
{{Combined instructions for Transfer Ready DtTm and Boarding Loc}}


If the patient never ends up in a "borrowed bed" during their stay then, leave the default in Item as ''no borrow'' and also put a check mark in the checkbox. (this is to verify that there was no bed borrow, otherwise no one is sure is missed or not).
==== GRA MICU ====
If the patient does end up in a "borrowed bed", change the item to the location of the borrow and enter the rest as per below: [[#How to enter this]].
* Grace ICU boarding in ER choose Boarding Location GH-Emergency
* Grace Main ICU choose Boarding Location and GH-Intensive Care
* Grace Recovery Room (ICU) choose Boarding Location and [[GH-Recovery Room]] and enter comment Covid+ICU
* For External(SDC/NFA) ICU beds choose Boarding Loc and GH-External ICU and enter exact location in comments


'''For Critical Care only''', add a new tmp entry for every additional move/borrow within your centre that a patient makes during their stay at your [[Service/Location]]; including moves from borrowed location to your actual unit.
=== Special Case - cross-program boarding ===
If a patient is accepted by your service, taken care of  but '''remains at a location of a different service where we collect for some time''' before moving to your service, you need to enter a [[Boarding Loc]] entry for that period. That originating and different service location becomes the first Boarding loc.  


=== How to enter this ===
'''For medicine pts boarding in ICU''' you can use the explicit ICU entry that applies because all CC locations are explicitly included in Boarding Loc.
{{Discuss | need to update these. }}


*Use tmp fields:
'''For CC patients boarding on a Med ward where we collect''', enter "GRA_Med"/"HSC_Med"/"STB_Med" as applicable. We added these boarding loc options specifically for this scenario, and they are available only on CC laptops.  
** Project: '''Borrow arrive'''
** Item: '''no borrow''' is the default (check off the box under column B for all patients '''not''' borrowing a bed).
** Item: '''borrow arrive''' (select the ward/unit where the bed was borrowed):
*** CON - recovery
*** GRA - recovery
*** GRA - ER (a strange thing they only do at Grace for now) - added May 2.19
****will update March 30.19 profile GRA_MICU_10422 master database to reflect this event.
*** HSC - recovery
*** [[HSC_CCU]]
*** [[HSC_IICU]]
*** [[HSC_MICU]]
*** [[HSC_SICU]]
*** OAK - recovery
*** STB - recovery
*** [[STB_ACCU]]
*** [[STB_CICU]]
*** [[STB_MICU]]
**** '''If a location borrowed from is not available in the drop down, email Tina and Trish to have them added.'''
** Enter start_dt: '''arrival date at borrowed bed''', under column E.
** Enter start_tm: '''arrival time at borrowed bed''', under column M.
** checkbox: '''to be checked only in case of "no borrow"


* If the patient moves back to their "home unit", or "intended unit", make another '''borrow arrive''' entry and select your home unit. Enter the date/time for this move, as above.
{{Ex | This could happen if the team runs a code on a patient and accepts care for that patient, but for a period of time hasn't yet moved the patient. For Critical Care, you would enter a generic "<Site>_Med" "<Site>_Med" (ie [[GRA_Med]], [[HSC_Med]], [[STB_Med]]) for this patient so we don't have CC collectors keeping track of where regular, boarding or covid locations are.}}


*Dispo Tab
===Special Case- temporary boarding locations ===
**[[Service/Location field]] enter: '''home''' ward/unit
Occasionally a patient may be transferred to a location that is normally a [[Boarding Loc]] that we would enter or discharge to, however that location may be used as a temporary boarding location for a procedure.  If after reading through the chart this is in fact the case, that [[Boarding Loc]] should not be entered in the TMP, as it should be regarded as though the patient were going for any procedure and then back to their home ward location.
*Sometimes [[Visits to temporary locations]] may look like boarding locations. See that page for info on making the distinction.
eg. Medicine patient is transferred to ICMS for a scope and is not admitted under critical care, that [[Boarding Loc]] for ICMS should not be entered in the TMP


=== Special Case - original arrival is in "borrowed bed" ===
=== Special Case - Erroneous Unit information in [[Cognos EPR Report]] ===
If pt is admitted to your physician service but the original location is from an off-ward bed, code that location  [[Arrive DtTm]] = borrow date and time.
Use what you know to be correct from chart and your knowledge of your hospital.


The APACHE elements time frame will start in the off-ward bed location and TISS starts from the off-ward bed as well.
=== parked in ER ===
For further information please see
* [[Parked in ER]]


=== Special Case - PACU ===
If a bed is borrowed in PACU / post-anesthesia care / recovery unit, code this as a '''borrow'''. (i.e. <hosp> - recovery, e.g. "HSC - recovery").


If the decision to accept to the service happens in PACU, the [[Arrive DtTm]] = the borrow date and time.  The APACHE elements are collected at PACU stay and TISS starts at PACU.
=== sources for Boarding Loc DtTm ===
Sometimes the times are not when people really show up at a boarding loctation.  


=== Special Case - From ER ===
==== Cognos Unit Listing ====
Not included in this project. 
Usually the Cognos Unit start time can be used as [[Boarding Loc]].
*The time spent/waiting in ER is done using [[Arrive DtTm]] vs [[Accept DtTm]].
**March 30.19: own ward, to own ER (under ICU physician care) then to own ICU when bed available.  Started occurring at Grace- March 30.19


=== Special Case - Parked ===
==== First set of vital signs ====
Not included.
The first set of vital signs is used as [[Boarding Loc]] dttm for arrival on the unit in ICU collection, if it is different from the Cognos Unit Start DtTm.
*For patients who are [[Parked in ER]], no need an entry for these, since the ER delay will take care of them.


== Start/End Dates ==

=== considerations about continuing collection ===
Continue collection for now, just keeping you in the loop about discussions in main office.
* --[[User:JMojica|JMojica]] 11:17, 2018 November 15 (CST)  --  Added some more as shown by the data.  Just a note - only 30 out of 1807 (2%) records have shown borrowed location while 98% have no borrow. This is expected since STB ACCU has stopped borrowing bed and instead, now borrowing service from ICMS /ICCS which is being collected in another tmp project. The site with most frequent borrower is HSC SICU (i.e. borrowing bed from PACU). How much work will it take to do all these integrity checks?  Also with very few useful data, I think we should not collect this project for all admissions but restore the use of [[Off ward field]] checkbox and  collect only for those with YES Off ward.
** We are checking in with [[HSC_SICU]] to see how they use this data.

This isn't so much a project as way to track how patients physically move around the hospital. See Change from Service Location to Service, Boarding Loc and Transfer Ready DtTm tmp entry for information about it and why we needed to change it to this model.

This project tracks where and when a patient arrives into a new physical location under the Medicine or ICU service.

Data Collection Instructions

How to enter this

You can use the "make loc" button to generate and pre-populate these entries.

  • Use tmp fields:
    • Project: Boarding Loc
    • start_dt and start_tm:
    • checkbox: not used for this project
    • Item:
      • for the initial unit or ER and each physical move to another unit, enter the location by using the "make loc" button in Patient Viewer Tab Cognos ADT2
      • please note that if a boarding location appears in COGNOS but the patient does NOT move/arrive to that boarding location, do NOT enter that boarding location. We only capture boarding locations where the patient physically arrives
        • if the ward is not available in the dropdown, please notify Tina, Lisa, and Julie; Tina/Lisa will add the location to the dropdown and update the wiki as needed; Julie will note the change for her reports. eg. during the various COVID waves, many surgical wards were used for medicine overflow or COVID patients
        • leave what is in Cognos, the main office doesn't use this part for anything for home locations, but it can be used to crosscheck accuracy.
  • no location entered is the default
    • that entry will not be allowed in a complete record; it is automatically deleted when by Cognos Make Loc button, but needs to be removed before setting a record to complete if it is still present.

Exception: no two with same DtTm

  • No two different boarding locations should have same start_dt and start_tm.
    • if two boarding locations have the same Start_DtTm, this is an error, change one to be off by one minute, put a note in "notes" section to check boarding location to confirm the correct date and time for the boarding locations of concern.
    • example: Not infrequently, the COGNOS data for HSC_SICU patients coming from the ER, will show the first service, first boarding location(ER) and the second boarding location(SICU) as all having the same start_DtTm. Our solution for this is to change the, second boarding location (SICU) to be off by one minute. We then put a note in the notes section to confirm the boarding location(s) date and time and the first service_DtTm.

Exception

  • when a patient is transferred to one of our units, ideally the first service and first boarding Loc should be the same date and time. However, often they are not. In these cases, always use the first service entry line as the date and time for first service and first boarding Loc (make a note in the notes field to change to the first Boarding Loc date and time at a later date when reviewing the chart)
  • example- patient transfers from ICU to medical unit. first medicine service=May10@1400, First boarding loc=May10@1630. While the correct first service and first Boarding Loc should be May 10@1630, enter the first service date and time from COGNOS (May 10@1400) for both the first service and first boarding Loc. There are two reasons for this: if you change the first service date and time without excluding that service it will fill up your CSS and you will not get the associated service end date and time. If you exclude that service entry all together than you will also not get the associated service end date and time.

Combining Transfer Ready DtTm tmp entry and Boarding Loc records

GRA MICU

  • Grace ICU boarding in ER choose Boarding Location GH-Emergency
  • Grace Main ICU choose Boarding Location and GH-Intensive Care
  • Grace Recovery Room (ICU) choose Boarding Location and GH-Recovery Room and enter comment Covid+ICU
  • For External(SDC/NFA) ICU beds choose Boarding Loc and GH-External ICU and enter exact location in comments

Special Case - cross-program boarding

If a patient is accepted by your service, taken care of but remains at a location of a different service where we collect for some time before moving to your service, you need to enter a Boarding Loc entry for that period. That originating and different service location becomes the first Boarding loc.

For medicine pts boarding in ICU you can use the explicit ICU entry that applies because all CC locations are explicitly included in Boarding Loc.

For CC patients boarding on a Med ward where we collect, enter "GRA_Med"/"HSC_Med"/"STB_Med" as applicable. We added these boarding loc options specifically for this scenario, and they are available only on CC laptops.

Example:   
This could happen if the team runs a code on a patient and accepts care for that patient, but for a period of time hasn't yet moved the patient. For Critical Care, you would enter a generic "<Site>_Med"  "<Site>_Med" (ie GRA_Med, HSC_Med, STB_Med) for this patient so we don't have CC collectors keeping track of where regular, boarding or covid locations are.

Special Case- temporary boarding locations

Occasionally a patient may be transferred to a location that is normally a Boarding Loc that we would enter or discharge to, however that location may be used as a temporary boarding location for a procedure. If after reading through the chart this is in fact the case, that Boarding Loc should not be entered in the TMP, as it should be regarded as though the patient were going for any procedure and then back to their home ward location.

eg. Medicine patient is transferred to ICMS for a scope and is not admitted under critical care, that Boarding Loc for ICMS should not be entered in the TMP

Special Case - Erroneous Unit information in Cognos EPR Report

Use what you know to be correct from chart and your knowledge of your hospital.

sources for Boarding Loc DtTm

Sometimes the times are not when people really show up at a boarding loctation.

Cognos Unit Listing

Usually the Cognos Unit start time can be used as Boarding Loc.

First set of vital signs

The first set of vital signs is used as Boarding Loc dttm for arrival on the unit in ICU collection, if it is different from the Cognos Unit Start DtTm.

Data Use

Critical care and Medicine programs want to know this to better understand patient flow and bed utilization.

SAS Program

The SAS program calculates the time spent in a borrowed bed at each ICU stay and summarize the total bed-days in a given interval that are taken up by boarders from elsewhere and how much a certain unit is boarding elsewhere.

Time spent in borrowed bed = Next Arrival Date_time - First Arrival Date_time
where Next Arrival Date_time = Dispo Date_time if there is no more next arrival date_time.

The SAS program is saved in S:\MED\MED_CCMED\Julie\SAS_CFE\CFE_macros\prep_Tmp_BoardServiceTransfer.sas.

  • the specific macros are %BoardingLoc, %ACCUBorrow, %ICUOtherService

Background

See Bed borrow as aggregator page for other boarding and borrow related concepts.

The concept is similar to EMIPs but we will keep the EMIP separate from this project. The current EMIP will stay the same.--JMojica 10:37, 2019 September 20 (CDT)
