| **example 1 patient arrests in ER, goes to OR and is admitted to ICU from the OR. Diagnosis, cardiac arrest (6-10 min downtime) abdominal compartment syndrome/obstruction/perforation/, acute liver failure from shock liver, shock, NOS | | * It was decided at TASK on May 22, 2024, that this diagnosis no longer has to be the [[Primary Admit Diagnosis]], it can be but may not always be the [[Primary Admit Diagnosis]] |
| *when to carry it forward as an admit for subsequent profiles in the same episode of care?

| **example 2 April 6, PEA arrest secondary to anaphylactic shock, April 19 melena, scope suspicious for ischemic gut, goes to the OR April 20 confirms gangrenous bowel/perforation, abscesses, to SICU post op (clinically in SS but doesn't have lactate high enough for our criteria) do we still include the cardiac arrest code?
