Project ABO TEE

We are collecting blood type and cardiac function on 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)

Collection parameters

• Collected only at StB CICU
• Start Date: 2013-01-28
• End Date: planned as continuous collection without an end date
• data is sent upon final-check only
• data is saved in L_TmpV2 under Projects 'A_T blood type', 'A_T LV Fraction', and 'A_T Function' of Centralized_data.mdb

Data Use

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

• Dr. R. Manji

• Each of the three projects must have one entry on the ITEM.
• All the three projects must have not blanks on completion of record.
