* On Medicine wards we get many patients in rapid atrial fibrillation that require bolus treatments. By the code book definition they do not qualify for coding as atrial fibrillation because they are not getting continuous infusions. I think this definition is outdated. Are other data collectors coding unstable atrial fibrillation on Medical wards?[[User:GHall|GHall]] 15:55, 16 April 2009 (CDT)
