Notes:

Collectors, when a patient is admitted to your ICU with the primary reason being "cardioversion" for atrial fib do you include them as an ICU admission? These are short stay patients 1-2 hrs that come from ER, home, ward to ICU for cardioversion and get sent back to ER, home or ward. Not admitted under ICU attending?TOstryzniuk 17:31, 20 August 2009 (CDT)

we are still finding a number of overlapping admissions. An overlap is a patient who is occupying 2 beds, one in medicine and one in ICU during the same time period.TOstryzniuk 17:31, 20 August 2009 (CDT)
