==Guidelines for the ''admit from'' source and ''discharge to'' location fields==
Deleted content so it does not pollute searches and backlinks; see history tab if you need details.  
It is important to obtain the correct location where the patient was prior to their ICU care and to distinquish between a pt that had been treated prior in any ICU or hospital ward as this can influence outcomes.  The concept is that a pt that had prior inpatient care (ward or ICU) and still requires additional ICU care has a higher risk of death than someone who did not have prior care (coming from the community to ER).
The following guidelines will apply: 
*When ER is indicated as the ''admit from'' location, this implies that the pt originated in the community. 
*If a pt has been treated in one or  more ER's, just put the last one they were treated in. 
*If a pt has been treated at any hospital ward or ICU inside or outside the city or province, it is important to capture this information, even if the pt went to your unit via ER for assessment.  Your hospital ER in this case is just a triage area and not the original place they presented.  For example:  if a pt has been on the ward in Selkirk and is transferred to HSC ER and then is sent to HSC MICU, the ''admit from'' is Selkirk Ward, even though it is not a direct transfer. 
*If a pt was bounced around a lot, then use the last ward or ICU as the source.
*PARR and the OR at any location can be used as ''admit from'' sources.  It is not necessary to put the previous hospital code for these patients.
*The OR can  be used as a ''discharge to'' location only if the pt is not returning to your unit. (Discharge to a different inpatient location following surgery). 
*ER and ACF cannot be used in the ''discharge to'' field.  If the patient goes to these locations, then the place they go after this needs to be put in the ''discharge to'' field.
* The heart cath lab is never used as an admit from or discharge to location.  Where the pt was before and after this procedure needs to be recorded in these fields.
*If it is unclear what type of unit the patient is transfered to or discharged to put unknown. Unknown is coded as "X".  See table below.  


===Deceased (Expired) patients ===
<onlyinclude>[[Admit from]] is a '''legacy field''' that used to encode the hospital and ward from where a patient was admitted. See [[Previous Location field]].
'''Discharge-to''' must be left '''blank''' for patients who has expired.
The [[Discharge to]]  is a '''legacy field''' that used to encode the hospital and ward that a patient was discharged to. See [[Dispo field]].</onlyinclude>
*this includes [[Braindead]] [[Organ Donor]]s that go to operating room (OR) for organ donation.


===OR Admissions ===
Content of this article was deleted to prevent results showing up inadvertently in searches. To see content, look at history of article for 2016-06-30.
To be admitted from an OR, the primary admit diagnoses must be the procedure they were in the OR for. See [[Check ORDx]] for more info.


=== STEMI from home (zz) to St Boniface ===
}}
Occasionally a patient is picked up by paramedics at home and transferred directly to the heart cath lab at St. Boniface Hospital.  They will not go to ER first to facilitate a very rapid "primary" PTCA.  These patients are then sent from the heart cath lab to CCU at STB or HSC.  In this scenario, code 'admit from' home and # diagnosis is angiogram or angioplasty (only exception is a cardiac arrest or cardiogenic shock which would be #1 and the angio would be #2).    --[[User:LKolesar|LKolesar]] 19:11, 1 November 2008 (CDT)
 
=== From other hospital via Angio ===
If a patient comes from another center to angiography in your center, then to your unit, please record which site the patient was from prior to angiogram and in [[Hospital previous]] put the center that they had been sent from.
 
=== From OR to other hospital via PACU ===
If a patient is admitted at site-A ER, transferred to site-B for a non-angio procedure, it is determined in site-B PACU that they need an ICU bed and they are transferred to site-C ICU, then code as admitted from site-B Recovery Room.
 
=== Direct to Medicine from Ambulatory Care ===
DIRECT to Medicine are patients who the medicine service attending Dr. has already accepted to their service, but the patient is sent to the ER to wait for a ward bed.
 
Example of Direct to medicine from ambulatory care clinic:
Admit FROM: HA
Medicine service Accept date (date and time admitted to medicine service): is the date and time patient came to ER
MOVE 1 – date and time patient actually arrived on the ward
Comment for MOVE 1– type in as follows:  parked in ER
 
If a patient is sent to ER from ambulatory care to be assessed by Medicine Service in ER to see if he should or should not be admitted to a med ward bed, then this is not a direct admission to medicine.  Admit from is HE.
 
=== [[Organ Donor]]/[[Braindead]] ===
Specific procedures apply, see [[Organ Donor]] article for details
 
== {{Data Integrity Rules}} ==
 
* If medicine patient admit from ward, we need [[Med Var 1 - Admit-from Ward]] (implemented by Function AdFrom_Var1_reconcile())
* If medicine patient discharge to ward, we need [[Med Var 2 - Discharge-to Ward]] (implemented by Function DisTo_Var2_reconcile())
* For survived patients, Discharged-to should never be blank (implemented by Function DisTo_Dead()))
* For expired patients, Discharged-to should always be blank
 
== Data Structure and details ==
[[S AdmitDischarge]] is the table which contains the list of the most current values in [[CCMDB.mdb]].
 
=== Acceptable Data ===
*It is important for data collectors to be aware that the letters used in the section below are not on the laptops and are only utilized by Julie, Trish, Pagasa and others who process the data. 
These values always consist of '''two''' characters. The first letter designates the facility, the second letter the location in the facility.
 
The meanings for the codes are as follows.
*Special Note:  For patients who were admitted from a hospital outside of Winnipeg, also see the entry for [[hospital previous]].
