- For Critical Care, see Definition of an ICU_admission
- The following situations ARE included for the Regional Medicine Database:
- Admitted under a Medicine service attending physician anywhere in the hospital (including, for example, if they are remaining in ED because there is no medicine ward bed yet).
- Admitted to a Medicine ward location but rather than being cared for by the regular ward team, the primary care service is Nephrology
- Once such a person is transferred out of the Medicine ward location, we no longer follow the patient.
- Admitted to a Medicine ward location but rather than being cared for by the regular ward team, he primary care service is Neurology.
- This includes "HSC Internal Med / Neurology" patients admitted to HSC HOBS -- once they are discharged/transferred out of HOBS, we no longer follow the patient. (per Dan Roberts, see also HSC Medicine Collection Guide)
- More generally, once such a person is transferred out of the Medicine ward location, we no longer follow the patient.
- Admitted to a Medicine ward location but rather than being cared for by the regular ward team, the primary care service is Oncology -- EXCEPT if admitted ONLY for chemotherapy
- A subtlety here is that if such a patient develop complications and is then transferred to Internal medicine service for the duration of hospital stay, we do collect them in the Medicine database beginning when that transfer occurs.
- Once such a person is transferred out of the Medicine ward location, we no longer follow the patient.
- As always, collection for internal medicine patients starts at Accept DtTm ie possibly while in ER, regardless of where they are, including if they are still in the ER (i.e. EMIP).
Seeking clarification regarding inclusion patients ie. a patient under internal med /nephrology admitted to mixed "off ward"/mixed displaced units or mixed covid suspect/mixed covid units either from ER or as a direct admission? When ie. med/neph patients are transferred from "regular" internal medicine units to mixed displaced/mixed off ward/mixed covid suspect/mixed covid units are collectors to continue to follow patients under these circumstances? Thank you, Pamela Piche 10:21, 2020 December 3 (CST) |

- The following situations ARE NOT included for the Regional Medicine Database:
- Oncology patients admitted only for chemotherapy. These are short stay patients with only nursing IPN entries.
- Nephrology, Oncology or Neurology patients whose primary care service is (respectively) nephrology, oncology or neurology -- who are NOT on a Medicine ward location.
- Patients admitted to HSC_H6 under "HSC Internal Med / Respiratory" or "HSC Internal Med / Neurology" -- actually this fits into the above rules, as HSC_H6 is not a Medicine ward location.
- Interventional radiology service patients admitted for an overnight procedure -- clue that it's not an internal medicine is the attending physician. The attending physician will be an interventional radiologist, not an internal medicine doc. DPageNewton 08:11, 2020 November 19 (CST)
