* | *Start Date for collecting OVER patients : May 9, 2007 | ||
* | *Change in the Process starting Jan 1, 2013. | ||
*Serial Sequence | |||
**OVER patients will follow serial sequence with digits ending in zeroes starting serial = 6000 and will be added equally to the N5 and S5 or S3 wards. | |||
***The SERIAL numbers from May 2007 to Dec 2012 ( until SERIAL=599) will be replaced by serial = 6000 to 7850. This is done to avoid any duplication in serial number for patients in the same ward. | |||
***starting Jan 1, 2013, the SERIAL number will start at 8000. | |||
**Wards N5, S5 and S3 are using the same serial sequence for the VMU patients. Starting from serial = 5571, only ending digits 1 to 9 will be used for VMU patients. The serial number ending with zero (0) digit will be reserved for OVER patient. | |||
**Ward S4 has also its own serial number sequence. Starting with serial number = 7975, only ending digits 1 to 9 will be used for CTU patients. The serial number ending with zero (0) digit will be reserved for OVER patient. | |||
**Since the OVER patients are allocated under the VMU wards, the way to identify them in the database is by tagging VAR5 field with value 'OVZ'. 'OVZ' is the short acronymn which means an overflow patient (OV) under Medicine service who stayed in an off-service ward and went home (Z). | |||
*Process | |||
**The data collector will determine the OVER patients, will equally allocate the OVER patients between the VMU wards, enter 'N5' or 'S5' instead of 'OVER' as the Location, use a serial number ending in zero and enter 'OVZ' in VAR5. | |||
