Definition of a Critical Care Laptop Admission
The definition of an "ICU patient" for the Regional ICU Database is:
- admitted under Critical Care service attending physician, regardless of their physical location, even if it is a Boarding Loc such as PACU or ER. If patient doesn't meet this definition then we don't collect data and enter into the ICU database.
|
We need to ensure consistency with pages like Length of Stay (ICU Report) which rely on this definition. |
