Discussion

  • According to Julie some locations, e.g. Vic, are now using the Var1/2 ICU for admit from and discharge to wards. This would be a nice consistency between Med and ICU, but then it would need to be done everywhere. When BRR or MAP isn't entered, the field is used for this. Should this practice be extended?

    • Julie is not correct on this point.TOstryzniuk 17:45, 23 January 2009 (CST)
