Green sheet

The Green Sheet is a form used by physicians to put down patient data to help our data collection.

Data on Greensheet

1. primary admitting diagnosis
2. complications (problems, procedures and surgery) that occur after unit admission (also referred to as "acquired diagnosis").
3. Comorbid conditions
4. Admit, Transfer and Discharge date and time
5. Discontinuation of Treatment

Data Collector Responsibility RE: Green sheets

• ICU & CCU Collection only
• remind site attending physicians to complete these form.
• record Serial number on each form
• ensure addressograph info on each form

• collect and submit paper form to main database processing office for each patient that is discharge from unit
  • before submitting to office organize forms from lowest to highest serial number order
  • clip together and attach a TAG with the following information:

Site, Location, Program, batch sent number, initials: (Example: HSC D4 MED Batch 10 BB)

Legacy data

There used to be tallying by our collectors to keep track of physician compliance. This is no longer done as of August 20.09.

As of December 7, 2009, after email directions from Dr. Roberts, greensheets are no longer facilitated or processed on medicine units by the critical care and medicine database.

Template:Discussion If I understand correctly we are still collecting these sheets in critical care. Is this correct? If so, what are these sheets used for now? Should we continue to collect and send them in? If collectors are finding them useful, then could we continue to use them but confidential-waste them when patients are sent?
