Confusion Assessment Method: Difference between revisions

Line 1:

The '''Confusion Assessment Method''' is "an instrument for use in the intensive care unit to accurately diagnose delirium in critically ill patients who are often nonverbal because of mechanical ventilation."[http://journals.lww.com/ccmjournal/Abstract/2001/07000/Evaluation_of_delirium_in_critically_ill_patients_.12.aspx]

~~'''~~We are ~~not currently colllecting~~ CAM ~~scores but are discussing collecting them~~ as ~~part of the new~~ TISS.~~'''~~

We are collecting CAM as [[TISS 28 item 9]].

== Data problems ==

Problems were flagged in:

* [[TISS28 collection Survey January 7, 2013]]

* [[TISS28 collection & scanning Survey April 16, 2013]]

Did these ever get better? Ttenbergen 12:44, 2017 May 11 (CDT)

== Reporting ==

The information was requested by Dr Arora.

Is it part of a regular report? Do we have documentation similar to [[Critical Care Inter-facility Transfer Report]] Ttenbergen 12:44, 2017 May 11 (CDT)
