SAS application for Missing Transfer Ready Time

Before CCMDB.mdb_Change_Log_2011#ver_2011-05-04 collectors were able to send a blank transfer ready time with a transfer ready date. For those cases, the Statistician used a proxy time (possibly only for patients who required a transfer ready date in the first place). Transfer ready times can no longer have blank times as of that update, so this is no longer done.

SAS proxy transfer time assigned ICU

If no transfer time is available then analysis assumes

• 10:00 if discharge time is AFTER 10:00 am
• 0:01 if BEFORE 10:00 am
  • follows the CCVSM/Critical Care Vital Sign Monitor criteria

SAS proxy transfer time assigned MEDICINE

If no transfer time is available then analysis assumes

• 12:00 if discharge time is AFTER 12:00 noon
• 00:01 if BEFORE 12:00 noon.

It would be best if this was confirmed by the statistician - I tried to clarify it, but...Ttenbergen 14:41, 2014 March 2 (CST)
