The Critical Care database counts the laboratory tests listed in the L Labs Flowsheet Tab for every patient for their entire LOS in a unit.
Lab Collection Process
For every ICU patient, for every Manually collected lab, enter the number of times the test was performed into the L_Labs Flowsheet tab in the Patient Viewer in CCMDB.mdb.
See Labs collected list for a list of links to articles for each of the labs collected, with additional info.
If a patient has no entries by the end of their stay, enter a date and leave zeros under all the labs.
Labs done on route
Labs (eg CTs) done on the way to the Unit e.g. from the ER, are not counted since they occur before admission to the Unit.
