BIPAP/CPAP Task
The BIPAP/CPAP task encodes whether or not a medicine patient was newly started on your ward. It is stored in the Diagnosis tab in ccmdb.mdb because that is the only way we could store it when we started to collect it.
Only mark if this was a new start on your ward. If a task was done prior to patient coming to your ward or after patient is transferred to another ward, it should be marked as none during the stay on your ward.
- These items are included in: S_AllDiagnoses table which is in CCMDB.mdb.
Possible entries for BiPAP/CPAP:
Patient managed?
If a patient managing their own BiPAP then this should not be marked. However, if it was newly started during this admission, mark it.
Optiflow
Optiflow is not CPAP or BIPAP so don't mark this task for patients with Optiflow.
Data Structure
the list of options is in S_AllDiagnoses and the actual data is stored in L_Dxs.
