There is some confusion right now which definition of influenza we will follow. However we are in the middle of flu season and people are off for holidays so we can't make final decisions. So we will (for now)start a second project to use the Influenza in ICD10 definition.

Data Collection Instructions

For any patient who either

  • receives a full course of tamiflu/oseltamivir or any other anti-influenza agent
  • starts a course of tamiflu but is discharged or dies before the course is finished

Enter the following in tmp:

  • Project: Influenza treated
  • Item: Influenza treated
  • Date: date of treatment start
    • if started before admission and the data is not known, use admission date
  • Time, checkbox and comment fields are not used
  • do not contact anyone as in Influenza tracking based on these criteria

Don't use TMP as notes

Please do not enter this TMP until you have actually influenza treated. Use the Notes field on you laptop as a reminder if needed.

Definition is known to be different from ICD10/WHO/CDC etc

The definition of collection for this tmp study is known to be different from definitions used elsewhere. Please use this definition for this tmp study. If the definition is not clear, as usual please ask for confirmation.

This tmp study is unrelated to whether pt was tested

We collect separately (Influenza tracking) whether the patient was tested and what the result was. This tmp is only intended to track that they were treated.

Template:Discussion

  • If they don't have a full course of antivirals maybe we should be counting the days in our pharm_flow so that we don't use the influenza treated code in the temp studies for those that don't get a full treatment?The way it is set up now you can't tell if they got a full course of antivirals or not.

  • End Date: when we figure out how we want to track this, hopefully sometime in January 2018
