Questions prior to implementing
excluding community hospitals
Apparently neither HD nor PD is done at community hospitals.
- Dialysis Task must never be marked for
- GRA N3/N5/W3
- VIC N5/S3/S4/S5
- Since we only check patients with LOS>3, do we need to consider this? If a pt with CRF/ARF is in hospital longer than 3 days would dialysis not need to be accommodated? IE, would the patient then not need to be sent to a different hospital that can dialyze? Ttenbergen 21:02, 2014 April 30 (CDT)
palliation?
Do we need to exclude palliative pts in this check? If so, based on what? Ttenbergen 21:02, 2014 April 30 (CDT) Template:Discussion
