{{Discussion}}
=== Definition is known to be different from ICD10/WHO/CDC etc ===
{{Discuss@task | Different definitions from [[Influenza in ICD10]]. 1. Which definition is the one we will use?}}
The definition of collection for this tmp study is known to be different from definitions used elsewhere. Please use this definition for this tmp study. If the definition is '''not clear''', as usual please ask for confirmation.  
*[[p:Dr. Allan Garland]] copied the following segment from [[Influenza in ICD10]], It gives a different definition of Suspected Influenza: 
**Suspected influenza -- here the clinical team wrote believed that it was influenza and gave a “full course” of anti-influenza drug PLUS either:
***(a) no lab test was sent at all, or
***(b) the final Cadham test result was negative.
*For influenza that this not severe, the usual course of oseltamivir (Tamiflu) is 5 days. But WHO and CDC recommend that in severe cases the drug should be continued until the infection is resolved or there is satisfactory clinical improvement.


=== Purpose and reporting ===
== Purpose and reporting ==
The Infection Prevention & Control releases summary report of influenza statistics every Influenza season and the Critical Care Directors would like to make sure that the reported statistics at ICU are consistent with the Critical Care & Medicine Database. The two programs agreed to collaborate by communicating the incidence of influenza as it occurs.
