Legacy Data

• When the Database Program started in mid June 1988 we had two different codes for cardiac arrest. Code 100 (with subcodes 0-3) was to used only in the admit diagnosis slots and code 150 (with subcodes 0-3) was to be use only in acquired/complication code slots. The initial DOS database had many limitation we had to work around.
• In 2005/06 all acquired/complication codes of 150 were mapped to the correct 100 code by Trish and a utility program was written by our database programmer TMS LTD to automate the conversion. process..TOstryzniuk 18:39, 25 June 2008 (CDT)
