The BIPAP/CPAP [[tasks | task]] encodes whether or not a '''medicine''' patient was '''newly started''' on your ward. It is stored in the Diagnosis tab in [[ccmdb.mdb]] because that is the only way we could store it when we started to collect it. | |||
Only mark | Only mark if this was a '''new start''' on your ward. If a task was done '''prior''' to patient coming to your ward or '''after''' patient is transferred to another ward, it should be marked as '''none''' during the stay on your ward. | ||

*This is difficult to differentiate as it is poorly documented sometimes. For example a pt that has been on cpap or bipap at home now comes into the hospital with a condition where they cannot manage the bipap on their own (like a stroke or fever, etc). It would be much simpler to identify all bipap patients rather then trying to figure out which patients can manage their bipap on their own. I wonder what the rationale for this was?? Some of our tasks are not done by ward nurses (like dialysis), but we still track this. --[[User:LKolesar|LKolesar]] 12:22, 2014 November 17 (CST) | *This is difficult to differentiate as it is poorly documented sometimes.
