*The focus is to determine number of ~~days with each device but~~ if the device is present on ~~admission it is not necessary to try to find prior date and time for this.~~ If the device is removed or stopped for a few days and then a new device is used, ~~this~~ new ~~date and time needs~~ to ~~be documented, ensuring that~~ the ~~original date and time of removal or stop is indicated~~.

* For each of the following devices, enter an in and out record for each device present:

*~~A separate item is~~ unplanned ~~extubations. Even when~~ this ~~occurs, be sure~~ to ~~also indicate~~ ETT out ~~date and time even~~ if it is ~~the same as the unplanned. This is necessary because the pt may be~~ re-intubated ~~and~~ then the ETT out will not be completed at the same date and time because the ETT days will continue.

** on "in" record, tick off "present on admission" instead of entering a date if the device is present on admission

** on "out" record, tick off "present on discharge" instead of entering a date if the device is present on discharge

* If the device is '''removed or stopped for a few days''' and then a new device is used, a new set of entries is required to get an accurate duration for the device.

* If an '''unplanned extubation''' occurs enter a record for this in addition to documenting the ETT in and out records

Further instructions will follow as we start working with this tool. Anyone can start trialing this any time because Tina has put it on the laptops. This only applies to critical care collectors. Feedback is welcomed as you start collecting this information. The actual project will start Jan 1, 2011 but you are encouraged to work with it on a trial basis somewhat before that date so that you are familiar with it and all the glitches can be worked out.
