**If a patient goes to ICU after a surgical procedures (or several surgeries done in that operating room), then that procedure/procedures are related to the admission.

**If a patient on the ward gets a bedside debridement which went well, and 10 minutes later he/she developed respiratory distress and went to the ICU because of that respiratory distress, that procedure is NOT related to the admission.

**If a patient on the ward gets a bedside debridement ~~which went well~~, during which they began to hemorrhage profusely and was transferred to the ICU because of that hemorrhage, then that procdure IS related to the admission.

**If a patient on the ward gets a bedside debridement, during which they began to hemorrhage profusely and was transferred to the ICU because of that hemorrhage, then that procdure IS related to the admission.

**It won't always be so clear if a procedure is related to the admission, and you may have to use your judgement.
