We used to exclude short stay patients (e.g. resuscitation failed and patient died after a few minutes in ICU). 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 [[Task Team]] and approved by [[p:Dr. Dan Roberts]] from the [[Steering Committee]]. | We used to exclude short stay patients (e.g. resuscitation failed and patient died after a few minutes in ICU).
