ICU Var 4 is used tag patients who are parked in the ER for a period of time while being transferred between two ICUs in the city.
- there are some profiles with unexplained gaps in time when a patient is moved from one ICU to another in the city. For some unforeseen reason, the accepting ICU did not have a bed ready. With the Statistician now linking continuous hospital admissions in the city, we needed a tag for the few cases that were held up for this reason so that these transfers would not be continually questioned when data reviewed.

Data Structure
See Category:Variable_codes_1_to_6 for details
Legacy Data
Braden Score
- Was the Braden score supposed to be tracked in here? Or was it tracked and discontinued, i.e. making it a legacy use? --Ttenbergen
- It was proposed for Medicine but never done. The Braden assessment was suppose to be a Regional initiative on all Medicine wards in the city. We have been standing by, ready and waiting with a slot to record.....TOstryzniuk 17:59, 22 July 2008 (CDT)
