Select the physiological values that reflect the '''worst''' deviation from normal in the '''first 24 hours''' while "in" the ICU. The clock starts at the '''[[Arrive DtTm ]]'''. If the length of stay in ICU is less than 24, use those values only. | Select the physiological values that reflect the '''worst''' deviation from normal in the '''first 24 hours''' while "in" the ICU.

We decided that a record starts at service acceptance, not unit arrival. This was partly to change the strange exception of [[EMIP]]s. So should this still be "in ICU" or should it now be "on ICU service"? These instructions largely also apply to Medicine, right? [[User:Ttenbergen|Ttenbergen]] 13:31, 2020 November 25 (CST) | |||

The ''Worst'' value could be '''high''' or '''low''', depending which gives the most [[APACHE Scoring table#Chemistry_values| points]]. | The ''Worst'' value could be '''high''' or '''low''', depending which gives the most [[APACHE Scoring table#Chemistry_values| points]]. | ||
