This project will track when and where the patient first borrows a bed.
Data Collection Instructions
Under which circumstances to enter this
- For medicine: put a tmp entry for the first time a patient enters a borrowed location within your centre during their stay at your Service/Location; this may be at the beginning of their stay
- For critical care: put a tmp entry for every move/borrow within your centre a patient makes during their stay at your Service/Location; including moves from borrowed location to your actual unit.
How to enter this
- Use tmp fields:
- Project: Borrow arrive
- Item: no borrow (default) or the ward/unit where the bed was borrowed
- If a ward/unit borrowed from is not available in the dropdown, email Tina and Trish to have them added.
 
- start_dt: arrival date at borrowed bed
- start_tm: arrival time at borrowed bed
- checkbox: to be checked only in case of "no borrow"
 
- Dispo Tab
- Service/Location field enter: home ward/unit
 
Special Case - admission is already to off-ward location
If pt is admitted to your service but even the original location is off-ward, code borrow arrive with borrow data and time = Arrive DtTm
Special Case - PACU
If a bed is borrowed in PACU / post-anesthesia care / recovery unit, code this as a borrow. (i.e. <hosp> - recovery, e.g. "HSC - recovery").
Special Case - From ER
WE don't want to include in this project the original time spent/waiting in ER since we already code this as arrive vs accept times. This means we also don't change how EMIP/ECIP are treated.
One could consider an EMIP a special case of this, but we will not code them in this project and instead follow the usual EMIP instructions.
Special Case - Parked
For patients who are Parked in ER, that project still needs to be endtered since it encodes where the patient was from, rather than where their bed was borrowed. A tmp entry for borrow arrive still needs to be entered for these patients.
Start/End Dates
- Start: not yet determined
- End: there is no planned end date
Data / Implementation comments
- for Critical Care units we will use the "location_name" column content from the s_dispo table
- for Medicine wards we will start out with the same options that used to be allowed for the moves project; collectors will be instructed to request additional locations to be added as they come up.
Template:CCMDB Data Integrity Checks
(start_dt, start_tm) outside of admission time
If
- (start_dt, start_tm) < Arrive_DtTm
or
- Dispo_DtTm <= (start_dt, start_tm)
then give a hard error. This can't be.
Implemented as query ___not___yet___implemented___.
can't have two entries that are the same
Can't have two identical entries.
Implemented as query ___not___yet___implemented___.
can't borrow on own unit
This is allowed because this is how we would code a patient moving back to home unit. No check! Just leaving it here in case.
Data Use
Critical care program wants to know this to better understand patient flow and bed utilization.
SAS Program
The SAS program calculates the time spent in a borrowed bed at each ICU stay and summarize the total bed-days in a given interval that are taken up by boarders from elsewhere and how much a certain unit is boarding elsewhere.
- Time spent in borrowed bed = Next Arrival Date_time - First Arrival Date_time
- where Next Arrival Date_time = Dispo Date_time if there is no more next arrival date_time.
 
 
- Time spent in borrowed bed = Next Arrival Date_time - First Arrival Date_time
The SAS program is saved in X:\Julie\SAS_CFE\CFE_macros\Bed_Borrow.sas
Background
Will replace Off ward field to provide more meaningful data.
We used to collect Moves for Medicine but this was too much work because there are too many adminstrative moves. Also, the data wasn't being used. Now critical care has asked for this data. To keep collection instructions as consistent as possible between CC and Med, we decided to use the same structure for both, but only track the first instance for medicine, but all instances for CC.
