AP Sys BP Field: Difference between revisions

Revision as of 17:12, 2 February 2011

The AP Sys BP data input field records SYSTOLIC blood pressure value.

If a value for this is not available, follow the missing value rule.

Apache Systolic BP is used for the MOST score.

for MOST - Value selected is one that is "closest to the time" before the medicine service physician "accepts" the patient to the medicine service from the emergency department.

It is also one of the values used to calculate the Mean BP for APACHE II.
- for selecting BP values for APACHE II, please refer to: Mean BP

If on IABP, use peripheral arterial BP, NOT aortic pressure. We want the worst value in the 1st 24 hrs in ICU, so if possible it would be PRE IABP BP. If pt comes out of OR with IABP use peripheral arterial BP not aortic BP.--Dr. Allan Garland, Dr. Bojan Paunovic, --TOstryzniuk 16:28, 31 January 2011 (CST)

The AP Sys BP must be >=25 And <=360.

-*On September 29 at the staff meeting Trish mentioned the time was to be the closest time''' before''' acceptance to medicine.I wonder if this area of inconsistency as the above statement says the closest time(which could be before or after) What do other medicine collectors think? Are we all doing it the same?[[User:GHall|GHall]] 18:21, 30 September 2010 (CDT)
