Hi....(GRACE ICU here)

* I have a couple of things that I would like to get clarified.  
* I have a couple of things that I would like to get clarified.  
1. '''Imipenem''' is listed on the pharmacy list of drugs. I have not seen this used in a long time but they are using [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Meropenem meropenem]. I gather that I should be capturing '''meropenem''', ''is this correct''?

*At St. Boniface we count the number of bags/bottles used and not the amount in the bag used, as was previously pointed out by others, the unused portion is thrown away, and the cost is what is being calculated.  That's how we do it here.[[User:DFriesen|DFriesen]] 15:57, 15 July 2008 (CDT) & Kym Wiebe

Hi Trish - I have access to it and have read the issue about syringe use  - I'm in Mary-Lou's camp - counting mg's  then converting into a syringe count of how much the patient actually received - I've been doing that for years. Christine Scoville - GRA ICU casual.
