CCU Service Tracking: Difference between revisions

* Received request from Julie/Laura to add ability to collect this to CCU laptop. Waiting for clarification because I thought all of CCU was cardiology, so there would be no need to collect this. Ttenbergen 18:50, 2016 March 25 (CDT)

**CICU was the request (not CCU). CICU is the Surgical ICU for Cardiac Surgery. Pt type usually in this unit is "surgery". We need the option of using CCU tracking in this unit because, at times, this is where they are put when MICU is full. CCU currently cannot take patients that have IABP's or are intubated so, when this happens, they have to be located in one of the ICU's at STB (either MICU or CICU). FYI: a new CCU is being built that will accommodate these types of patients. (The estimated time of this unit opening is June 2016).--[[User:LKolesar|LKolesar]] 09:23, 2016 March 29 (CDT)

*** Sorry, I meant CICU, not CCU. I thought all CICU patients are cardiology as far as sending service is concerned. Not so? See further up, "If a patient occupying a STB MICU bed remains under MICU coverage their entire stay, there is no need to make a tmp entry for CCU Service at all. " Or is that one ''actually'' talking CCU? Is that where I am getting confused, is that acronym used in multiple ways? - Ttenbergen 10:17, 2016 March 31 (CDT)
