ICU Var 2 currently the following options:

  • BRR - tag used for Cardiac Arrest Cooling Protocol. Click HERE for more information.
    • Started June 2004. Consistent application of code didn't start at all sites until about Aug 2004?
  • XBR

Can the MAP be eliminated

Template:Discussion

  • Another thing that I believe could be eliminated is acute care map in variable 2. Betty Lou had mentioned in a meeting a few years ago that this was no longer necessary. All patient who have acute MI are on the care map. This is just an unnecessary piece of data to add. --LKolesar 14:52, 27 October 2010 (CDT)--

Legacy Data

OBS

OBS tag for CON patient in ER telemetry used to be stored here. The 4 patients that have been tagged in Variable slot 2 with OBS have had this code moved to ICU var 1 in master database.

MAP

  • "MAP" would have been entered into Var 2 for those ICU patients with an myocardial infarction (MI) who have been put on the MI Care Map
    • started November 2004
    • ended 2010-Oct-29
  • when this was used if both BRR and MAP were used coding BRR took precedence over MAP.

Lead-up to this becoming legacy

  • CCU MAP in this variable is likely unnecessary as all patient who have an acute MI are automatically put on the acute MI care map.--LKolesar 11:34, 18 June 2008 (CDT)
    • in 2004/05 when MI care MAP was first introduced, Betty Lou Rock wanted to track if it was being applied at all sites consistently. It has been discussed that at some sites, the MI care map is not applied consistently. Need to follow this up with the Database Steering Committee and see if they would like us to stop tagging MAP and relegate the code to the legacy category.
