Collection start:
Collection end:

We are collecting blood type and cardiac function on STB CICU patients for analysis of outcomes, research, quality assurance.

Collection Instructions

• Project A_T blood type
• Blood type would be collected for all patients in CICU (no matter what type of procedure they had) .... if there is a blood type in chart (which there would be), need to collect it.
  • A
  • B
  • AB
  • O
  • z not available (starts with z to sort to end)

• Project A_T LV fraction (LV ejection fraction from intra-op TEE (Transesophageal echocardiogram), before Cardiopulmonary bypass):
  • <20%
  • 20-29%
  • 30-49%
  • 50% or greater
  • z not available (starts with z to sort to end)

• Project A_T function (Right ventricular function from intra-op TEE before cardiopulmonary bypass:)
  • If the documentation says mild-moderate or moderate to severe, then coding would be towards the worse value-eg. Mild-moderate would be recorded as moderate and moderate-severe would be recorded as severe.
  • Values are:
    • Normal
    • Mildy depressed
    • Moderately depressed
    • Severely depressed
    • z not available (starts with z to sort to end)

Source used to obtain ventricular function

• In this file I enter blood type and pre-CBP (pre coronary bypass) RV and LV function. You will find the TEE report in the operation section of the patient chart, usually at the back.
• Collector now has access to TEE reports from Xcelera

Location of computer

• side desk at STB in CICU.

Instructions to access the Xcelera computer.

• password can be found in the front of STB_CICU data collection binder or ask the other collectors in the office.
• locate small black box on desk on right side of computer at STB in CICU.
• 2 settings:
  • one for Xcelera
  • one for the xrays.
• Make sure the light by the Xcelera mode is on.
  • This can be changed by pushing the button on the right side of the box.
• Log on to the computer and click on the Xcelera icon.
  • The Tee reports will come up.
• Scroll to the one you want and click twice to bring it up.

• • Question: if there is no TEE done pre-CPB (cardiopulmonary bypass), then can you use a pre-op standard Echo-cardiogram for this?--LKolesar 13:19, 2015 September 16 (CDT)

Collection parameters

• Collected only at STB CICU
• Start Date: 2013-01-28
• End Date: planned as continuous collection without an end date

Data Use

Information will be provided by our statistician to physicians for further analysis.

• Dr. R. Manji
• Dr. A. Menkis

Template:CCMDB Data Integrity Checks

• Each of the three projects must have one entry on the ITEM for patients with RecordStatus complete.
  • Implemented as query s_tmp_ABO_TEE_checks

• All the three projects must not have blanks on completion of record.
  • automatic functionality, all tmp entries must have matching project/item entries

SAS Program

The SAS program to read the data can be found in X:\Julie\SAS_CFE\CFE_macros\CFE_ATBloodType.sas
