{{Discussion}} The directions state that we only need a date, if you want a time we could put the time of the sent culture if this is needed.--[[User:LKolesar|LKolesar]] 07:33, 2018 November 21 (CST)

** I have always entered the time in addition to the date, so that if Basil or whomever needed to review, they would know exactly which culture to look at in EPR. For both CLI and VAP [[User:Lkaita|Lisa Kaita]] 12:20, 2018 November 21 (CST)

{{Discussion}} Since a positive culture is no longer required, if, meeting all other clinical criteria, the xray then confirms a vap, would the xray date be a reasonable date to add in the tmp file? --[[User:Llovell|Llovell]] 12:30, 2018 November 21 (CST)

{{Discussion}} Is this something we should discuss in task? Using the culture date may be easier for consistency, but I also agree with Lori that CXR's are our confirmation of a VAP, using the new criteria. --[[User:Jvelasco|Jvelasco]] 12:47, 2018 November 21 (CST)
