Factors Identified Effecting Quality of Data
- One example identified at a meeting today by CMarks was if there is no MOST, because a patient was in palliative care, and only vital signs available is from 1 week prior to acceptance to medicine service then what do you put in as a BP, HR, WBC? The guidelines state if there are no values assume normal. But what are the normal values that should be recorded? Tina suggested putting not available and when data sent to Server, values will be output as a preset standard normals.
- Another example ID'd by LBilesky was for APACHE - the exact physiological item is not recorded because APACHE score is based on selecting a value within a RANGE for points. If the points are the same why fuss about which value to select? There were never any guidelines instructing a collector which value to choose within a range.
- PStein - ID'd that she sometimes find 2 or more sources of DATE and TIME first accepted to the Medicine Service. She uses the first date and time she finds on the chart?
- FLindell - if actual med ward arrival time is obtained the data collector from the ward log book, then a auditor of a chart would not have assess to the log book, hence the ward arrival date and time is not easily reproduced. --TOstryzniuk 17:24, 30 September 2010 (CDT)
