+The difference between the End Date/Time in a physical location and Start Date/Time of stay in a physical location under the same service. Patients are sometimes physically occupying bed in different locations during the whole stay under the same service for various reasons.

+Indicator:   LOS Per Location
+Created/Raw:   Created
+Program:   Critical Care and Medicine
+Start Date:
+End Date:
+Reports:  No reports on this wiki list this as an indicator.
+==Start Dates of collection==
+Critical Care: July 19, 2018 - started in project  [[Borrow Arrive]] and continued to project [[Boarding Loc]]
+Medicine: Sept 20, 2019 [[Boarding Loc]]
+==Data Sources==
+* the physical location(s) and start dttm (arrival date and time) on each location are taken from  Project  [[Boarding Loc]]
+* [[Admit DtTm]] and [[Dispo DtTm]]
+==Sampling Plan / Procedure==
+===Inclusion Criteria===
+*All ICU admissions  - see  [[Definition of a Critical Care Laptop Admission]]  and
+*All Medicine admissions  - see  [[Definition of a Medicine Laptop Admission]]
+===Exclusion Criteria===
+None
+===Frequency===
+* Reported when patient had been discharged out of ICU/Medicine.
+* Monthly, quarterly, year based on discharged date
+==Definition and Derivation==
+*LOS per location is simply calculated as the difference between the End Date/Time and Start Date/Time of stay in that location
+* First location:  Start date/time= first location = ICU discharge date/time – ICU admit date/time (expressed in days) where ICU discharge date/time = [[Dispo_DtTm]] and ICU admit date/time = [[Admit DtTm]]
+* Average ICU LOS (in days to 1 decimal place)
+* Median ICU LOS (in days to 1 decimal place)
+* Total ICU LOS (in days to 1 decimal place)
+===Numerator===
+For Average ICU LOS,  the numerator is Sum of Length of ICU stay of all discharges
+===Denominator===
+For Average ICU LOS, the denominator is Number of discharges
+==Data Sources==
+* [[Admit DtTm]] and [[Dispo DtTm]]
+* Can also be taken from the [[Created_Variables_CC table]] of [[CFE]]
+==SAS Program==
+The SAS program to get the LOS is X:\Julie\SAS_CFE\CFE_macros\logphi.sas and datetimes.sas
+==Report Users==
+* Critical Care Directors, Critical Care Unit Managers and WRHA Outcome Improvement Team Committee
+* Shared Health Decision Support Officer for Critical Care Dashboard (HSC only)
+This is what we usually mean when we say Length of Stay; see LOS for other uses.
+referred to as the Length of Stay (LOS) per record Before Oct 1, 2020 - a record is defined as an admission in specific Internal Medicine ward or Critical Care Unit as shown in Site_and_Location_table
+Starting Oct 1, 2020 - a record for Critical Care, see Definition of a Critical Care Laptop Admission and a record for Internal Medicine, see Definition of a Medicine Laptop Admission.
+LOS is simply calculated as the difference between the End Date/Time (i.e. Dispo DtTm) and Start Date/Time (i.e. first Service tmp entry) of stay. Start Date and time is defined by either of these fields: Accept DtTm
+Arrive DtTm
+first Service Start DtTm, see Service_tmp_entry and is the same as the Accept DtTm
+End Date and time is defined by the Dispo DtTm
+For example:
+Start Date/Time: 20 May 2008 11:30
+End Date/Time: 21 May 2008 17:45
+LOS_Record = 1.260 days
 What is actually being reported is the mean and median of this value.
