| '''Note:''' As of October 24, 2011 all patients that arrive in the ICU in the process of [[:Category: Arrest | resuscitation]] should be included in the database, even if they are there for a [[LOS | short lenght of time]] and subsequently pass away. This has been recommended by the [[ICU Database Task Group]] and approved by [[Dr. Dan Roberts]] from the [[:Category:Steering Committee | Steering Committee]]. Do the best you can to formulate an apache score either with vital signs & labs during the resuscitation, if available, or the vital signs & labs just before the arrest if available. --[[User:LKolesar|LKolesar]] 08:41, 25 October 2011 (CDT

| *''Example of coding arrest patient admitted to ICU from ER then sent a number of days later to a medicine ward with the following problems'':
| |
| **V. Fib. Cardiac arrest & MI, and CHF at home or in ER.
| |
| **Admitted from ER to ICU then transferred from ICU to Med Ward.
| |
| *DX coding:
| |
| **ICU Admit DX:
| |
| #cardiac arrest
| |
| #type of rhythm (if charted)
| |
| #MI
| |
| #CHF
| |
| *Transfer to Medicine Ward
| |
| **Admit DX:
| |
| #MI
| |
| #CHF

| *''Primary reason to ICU was cardiac arrest. Issue resolved in ICU so arrest must '''not''' be coded as primary reason to ward when patient transferred to the ward.''
| | [[Category: Diagnosis Coding (old)]] |
| | |
| *''If patient is admitted directly from the ward from ER with the above admitting DX then cardiac arrest is the primary reason for admission to medicine ward from the ER.

| *SEE '''[[BRR]]''' for information about the '''cooling protocol''' applied to '''witnessed cardiac arrests'''

| ==NOTE==

| Code 100.00-Arrest without a subcode:
| |
| *If it is not clear in the patient chart if the arrest was either witnessed, unwitnessed or respiratory then you would not use a subcode therefore, 10000 would be possible option. I would prefer that folks not guess if it really isn't clear in the chart.--[[User:TOstryzniuk|TOstryzniuk]] 17:34, 14 September 2010 (CDT)
