Converting Lab Counts to CCI: Difference between revisions

m removed general question about why these are CCI items

CCI would allow for the collection of most things we currently collect as counted labs ([[:Category:Manually_collected_labs]]). This page is  for the decision process whether we should go this route.

* It is much simpler and faster to count the number of CXR's, ABGs, and other tests in our lab counts than to put a CCI entry for each every day they are done.  Also,  anything that is currently on the tiss sheet should not have to be included in CCI at least for ICU.  For example, CRRT and IHD is clearly marked on the tiss and which days are clearly shown. To have to enter in CCI all tests and procedures every single day they are done is not feasible within the time constraints of our EFT's in my opinion.--[[User:LKolesar|LKolesar]] 08:12, 2018 January 31 (CST)

* Laura did a test collection and found this to be much slower. Trish will coordinate more testing for this. Ttenbergen 12:52, 2018 May 9 (CDT)

=== losing some detail ===
* If we move lab counts to CCI we would likely lose the distinction between [[Albumin 25pct]] and [[Albumin 5pct]]. Discussed at Task and we don't think this would be a problem Ttenbergen 13:13, 2018 May 9 (CDT)
== Questions and concerns ==
*Who is requesting dates for every single item? There are additional diagnostic procedures on this list that we previously did not count. 
*At one time we did not add other diagnostic counts because the data was not requested. 
*Is all this additional data being requested now?  (ie:  EEG's, abdominal xrays, nuclear scans, urodynamic study, cardiac stress test, pulmonary function tests, etc). 
*We used to go the steering committee for requests for additional data collection items, has this now changed?
