Summary: Vic had been collecting patients arriving with CPAP/BIPAP,
not only new ones. The original instructions here did not exclude
existing cases. Collectors are concerned that changing the criteria
will skew data.


*Trish, prior to this latest edition of the Task we here at the Vic had always understood this to be a "yes" or "no" question. With this new information it will impact on the method of data collection. Do you wish us to change the method of our collection now or as Dr. Roberts stated in the June/08 meeting go back to how you were collecting?[[User:TAngell|TAngell]] 10:50, 17 November 2008 (CST)
Dr Roberts and [[statistician | Julie ]] are now aware that everyone will now only collect '''new''' CPAP/Bipap starts. So, if you have kept reporting even existing treatments since the discussion about this started, please stop and only report new starts going forward.

**Can you further explain your concern?  I am not sure what you are getting at in regards to this one?[[User:TOstryzniuk|TOstryzniuk]] 00:46, 19 November 2008 (CST)
***We had been collecting all patients who were on CPAP/BiPAP on the medicine wards. Not just the new CPAP/BiPAP patients. With this new information in the wiki, I understand that we are now only to collect the patients who have been newly ordered to have CPAP/BiPAP on this admission to the hospital. Will this schew any of the data we have previously collected and impact negatively any future data we collect in the Task?[[User:TAngell|TAngell]] 09:12, 19 November 2008 (CST)
