**The time we use as the time of admission will be different than the time of admission to the unit, and often significant time has passed between the 2 times so the information collected is different e.g. pt is confused at our admission time but by the time the patient goes to the unit, the patient is now A & O etc or vice versa. Will this affect the algorithm? | **The time we use as the time of admission will be different than the time of admission to the unit, and often significant time has passed between the 2 times so the information collected is different e.g. pt is confused at our admission time but by the time the patient goes to the unit, the patient is now A & O etc or vice versa.

*** | ***Use the data as you would have entered before as that is what the algorithm was based on. I hope that helps, since I know some collectors used to collect this much later''. Pls let me know if you need more info''.--[[User:Ttenbergen|Ttenbergen]] 12:47, 2012 April 27 (CDT) | ||
** | ** Which admit date should be used as the 24hr cut-off for the form, the official one or "ours"? [[User:Ttenbergen|Ttenbergen]] 14:29, 2012 July 13 (CDT) | ||

**** '''What I meant was, [[#ensuring completeness within 24 hrs |above]] we state that the form needs to be complete within 24hrs. Is that 24hrs after our admission date, or after the patient's admission to the unit? [[User:Ttenbergen|Ttenbergen]] 13:48, 2012 July 27 (CDT) | |||

* | *The following data needs to be entered at admission time (i.e. like minimal data set) for the coloring algorithm. Will there be any problem '''''collecting''''' the following data right at admission time? | ||

* If the nurse form is incomplete the patient will be evaluated as if the nurse form had identified a problem, i.e. the patient will become yellow or red; the program will give a message that data had been missing. | |||
* '''If the nurse form flagged a problem and then any non-nurse-form variable is missing, right now the program evaluates to a gray button. If some data were not available at admit time, should the colour default to something instead of going gray? [[User:Ttenbergen|Ttenbergen]] 13:48, 2012 July 27 (CDT) {{discussion}} | |||
