ICU Var 1 is used to tag ICU patients as follows:

OBS - Tags an ICU patient who is in the observation unit in the ER (emergency department)while under ICU attending care. (example: Concordia ICU patients has frequently sent ICU patients to telemetry unit in their ER while still under ICU attending care).

C - Co-managed patients. Cardiology & ICU attending looking after a patient in MICU.

clarify: does OBS mean a patient who is in the ICU for observation, or an ICU patient who has gone to obs/er? I don't know what Obs means here, maybe someone else knows.As far as ICU at STB is concerned we don't use variable 1 at this time. LKolesar
Overflow to other units - Critical Care HSC and STB only still refers to this one. Looks like usage has changed. One or both locations need to be updated.
