  • 4 scenarios:
  1. Entire stay is in RR under SICU attending care.
  2. Before being transferred to SICU from RR a minimun time under SICU attending care in RR must be 2 hrs. or more to qualify as an overflow.
  3. Patient is transferred out of SICU into RR & is still under SICU care in RR before being transferred to the ward.
