Purpose
Kendiss Olafson & the QA team are monitoring Central Line Infections and VAPs in the ICUs.
Specs
- Start Date: Saturday August 22, 2009
- End Date / Duration: 1 year to August 31, 2010 then evaluate.--TOstryzniuk 12:12, 27 August 2009 (CDT)
- Units Collecting: all ICU's in the Region.
Data Collection Method
A. If an ICU patient has a Complication of VAP, the following entry must be made in the L_TmpV2 file:
- Project: QAInf
- Item: VAP Infection
- Infx Dt: Date of infection (no time) is the date POSITIVE SPUTUM CULTURE was sent.
B. If an ICU patient has a Complication of Central Line Infection, the following entry must be made in the L_TmpV2 file:
- Project: QAInf
- Item: Central Line Infection
- Infx Dt: Date of infection (no time) is the date POSITIVE BLOOD CULTURE was sent.
Consistency Checks
Tmp Checker will check for the following:
Dx but no tmp
If Complication Diagnosis is one of:
- Central line infection (code 86)
- VAP (code 39)
then
- L_TmpV2 entry with project "ICU Infection Audit" with date needed
Tmp but no dx
If "QAInf" entry is present in L_Tmp then
- program must be "CC"
- the corresponding diagnosis must exist
Send mode
Data for all patients meeting requirements for this study, including patients you are not sending this batch, will be sent every time complete patients are sent.
Possible expansion to Medicine Wards
We might start to collect Central Line Infections in Medicine as well pending input from Dr. Roberts.
