Questions

Lists all pages in. For those that were added with Template:Discuss it also lists the question. The old ones added with Template:Discussion only list the page.

There are currently 350 questions on this wiki.

	Summary
"almost same patient" check	If we need this page at all it needs to be integrated better.
24 Hour Intensivist Presence: A Pilot Study of Effects on ICU Patients, Families, Doctors and Nurses	how did the database program support this publication?
72hr Readmission Rate to ICU	Not those that were discharged home or elsewhere? Is this the same as Re-admission? Ttenbergen 12:03, 2017 July 5 (CDT) similar but specific with ICU. I will do a separate one for Med and delete the Re-admission after.
ADL General Collection Information	What else in addition to ALERT Scale Calculation uses this?
ALERT Scale	need tie-it-together page.
APACHE Acute Diagnoses	need here some general info what these are, links to wiki articles they are actually related to under old coding scheme, etc. I need help with this because I don't know if any of this is on the wiki, or else what it is about. Ttenbergen 17:20, 2018 February 23 (CST)
APACHE Comorbid Diagnoses	Dx grouping either need details or need to revise this when we re-group dxs; meeting booked with Julie and Allan 2019-01-20 Ttenbergen 15:42, 2019 January 3 (CST)
APACHE Comorbidities in ICD10 codes	Dx grouping Need to update from Allan's email 2018-11-26, but he said he would need to review this in light of the changes that had been made to ICD10 and CCI since he and Julie discussed. Ttenbergen 00:36, 2018 November 27 (CST)
AaDO2	I wonder if "null" is actually intended here, or if it was supposed to be 0. Ttenbergen 14:44, 2017 January 8 (CST) AaDO2 is null if there is no data for FIO2, PaO2 and PaCO2. However, no data was set to zero value instead of null. In addition, AaDO2 and the corresponding score are required only when FIO2 >= 50%, otherwise should be treated as null. (Similarly with PO2 score, it is required when FIO2 < 50% and otherwise should be treated as null. When FIO2 =0, both AaDO2 and its score and PO2 score should be null.) Are we setting null to zero to facilitate the programming calculation? Is it possible to differentiate null from valid zero in both L_LOG and created_variables_CC - will the work be big? In L_LOG, these are the FIO2, CO2, PO2 and SerCO2. 14:49, 2017 March 16 (CDT)
Acute Kidney Injury in Critically Ill Patients Infected With 2009 Pandemic Influenza A (H1N1): Report From a Canadian Province	how did we support this publication?
Acute kidney injury in septic shock: clinical outcomes and impact of duration of hypotension prior to initiation of antimicrobial therapy	how did we support this publication?
Adding a CCI or ICD10 entry in CFE	we need a better solution, I need to make that ID field populate automatically.
Admit Diagnosis	Como Admit Acquired Primary Limits - this is part of that discussion - if we limit which admits will count as comos we need to review
An institutional review of fulminant hepatic failure in an urban Canadian centre	how did we support this publication?
Angiogram, coronary (diagnostic cardiac catheterization)	I recall discussing this in TASK a while ago and I remember that we were talking about now coding both the diagnostic Angiogram, coronary (diagnostic cardiac catheterization) and therapeutic Angioplasty, coronary (with stenting) if both were done. I just want to make sure that we have the correct instructions here. --Jvelasco 12:24, 2019 April 17 (CDT) that meeting's minutes are at Task_Team_Meeting_-_Rolling_Agenda_and_Minutes_2018#ICU Database Task Group Meeting – December 7, 2018 - item 7. Could you confirm that the instructions are as discussed then?
Antibiotic Resistant Organism	It is awkward to work with/find readily available specific information as to the antibiotics included in the general antibiotic resistant articles. Some articles include links to sites that may/may not be that helpful in determination of inclusion antibiotics. Would it be possible to include a listing of common antibiotics in the general antibiotic resistant articles? It would be helpful for collectors to have an inclusion list in those articles to use as a quick and easy reference. p:Pam Piche Pam Piche: Question from Allan: I'm not quite sure what you're asking here. Is it which antimicrobials are for which type of bug (bacteria, fungal, etc), or something else?? Please expand on your question. I was thinking along the lines of a listing of inclusion antibiotics such as is available in ICU Pharm flow tab (when hovering over category). I was wondering if such a listing would be helpful in quick determination of inclusion antibiotics?
ApLab Complete	Legacy field cleanup.
Artificial openings NOS care	_q2 Very possibly we should eliminate this code as CCI code is better ?!?!?
Atrial fibrillation and/or atrial flutter
Automatic updating of MS Access Databases using scheduled tasks	I think PHI copy automation uses this. It might accomplish this in a different way...
Awaiting/delayed transfer to other care facility NOS	We probably don't need this code from a data use perspective (as confirmed by AG 2018-11-30) but we might need it for cross checks like Query check ICD10 needs awaiting if TR Dt and Dispo Dt on diff days or similar; will keep this code until we have worked out if those checks will be possible.
Bacteremia	This lists in Apache Neuro because it is in the following range: Nonop - Large categories - Neuro NOS - A17. - A69.22 When we touche on this at an Allan's list meeting you agreed that probably wasn't right.
Base Population for Research	This page is linked from the front page, so we should either make it good or get rid of that. Is there anything on Publications that would be a good example for how our DB was used for this?
Battery disposal	collectors, please document what your process is at your office location.Trish Ostryzniuk 17:38, 2019 March 5 (CST)
Bed Census Data Processing Instructions	is this the current process, or is Bed_census.mdb? I think the process is better off here than in the .mdb article. probably incomplete... Ttenbergen 18:17, 2016 April 14 (CDT) emailed Trish/PAgasa Ttenbergen 16:46, 2018 October 30 (CDT)
Bed borrow	we want to unify this concept; started discussion today pre-admission bed borrow vs post-admission bed borrow (vs current Off ward field) check box also consider ECIP Ttenbergen 14:33, 2019 April 9 (CDT) also related is our old concept Moves for Medicine we want to unify this concept; started discussion today Ttenbergen 14:33, 2019 April 9 (CDT) we are seeing at Grace, a number of patients that are admitted from a GRA ward into the GRA ER under ICU care until bed is available in Grace ICU. Unlike CON or OAKs, that if patient needs ICU, and no bed, they go to ER, under ER service care until ICU bed available. At Grace, this is a bed borrow by ICU service in ER dept, but our TMP project does not have to ITEM for GRA ER for this purpose. As discussed in Task, we will likely be seeing more of this and we need to find out if ICU would like to know how much time patients spends in ER like this. We need to decide how we are going to capture this. GRA_MICU-10422 GRA_MICU-10458 UPDATE: on May 2.19 we added GRA ER as item in TMP for Project Borrow arrive. At a later time we also added GRA_MICU UPDATE: June 12.19 - planned changes - not yet active - Off ward loc
Bed holds	Julie seems to set the limit at 1 day - emailed Julie Ttenbergen 10:07, 2016 November 10 (CST) duplication on wiki needs to be cleaned up once we are on same page Laura and Tina discussed this and there clearly are different understandings about this. Need to review. LKolesar 14:43, 2017 March 1 (CST)
Bed occupancy	Is this about Bed census.mdb or a different thing? with TMSX not having been around for a while, is this still relevant? Do you provide this data otherwise? Do we need to implement this?
Bentall Procedure	Are these right? Or only the stenosis or insufficiency?
Bi-monthly report	What is the Bi-monthly report?
Bladder, disorder NOS	A bladder disorder does not necessarily mean that an infection is present. The check for pathogen should be removed.--CMarks 14:18, 2019 February 13 (CST) The dx has been removed from the infection requiring pathogen category. Please try entering this again. If still a problem, post here, else pls remove the question. Ttenbergen 16:43, 2019 February 14 (CST)
Blood Product Data	I have made this page to document progress toward this import.
CAM positive (TISS Item)	Did these ever get better? Ttenbergen 12:44, 2017 May 11 (CDT) Does anything need to be done about this? Ttenbergen 20:15, 2018 November 27 (CST)
CFE Data Integrity Checks	information that still needs to be integrated Pre-linking checks Quality Assurance queries in CFE
CTE	CTU vs NTU We are not adding this after the outcome of Eliminating distinction between different ward types, but I still need to clean all that up. Ttenbergen 20:13, 2019 May 9 (CDT)
Can't check ICD10 ARF vs APACHE ARF	definition is changing so it might become possible soon to cross-check this.
Cardiac/cardiovascular drug NOS, adverse effect	Is this the code we use for Amiodarone lung? --LKolesar 14:15, 2019 January 23 (CST) nope, as listed on old dx Amiodarone Lung and in Interstitial lung disease, drug-induced (acute or chronic), use Interstitial lung disease, drug-induced (acute or chronic). Please delete the comment once you have reviewed it.Ttenbergen 09:38, 2019 January 24 (CST)
Central Line Associated Blood-Stream Infection (CLA-BSI) rate	What are the details?
Centralized data front end.accdb	Still has old name, need to update. Also, isn't really documented here yet
Centralized data front end.accdb Change Request	Postal Code vs Pre-acute Linked pairs, better storage 2019 March 01 - move priority number column for ICD10 to be after the primary type column. This would make it the same as CCMDB. add TDI column to query L_CCI_Combined fix dc treatment box that isn't showing up in form Ttenbergen 15:52, 2018 April 11 (CDT) fix table reconnector to not look for L_Labs_DSM any longer, since it's now elsewhere. Ttenbergen 15:52, 2018 April 11 (CDT) CCI and ICD10 make button for Pagasa clean up the form (whatever that meant) add button for link suspect queries to patient list update Correcting suspect links
Change Priorities	is this Check Renal Tasks? If so, there are questions there. Ttenbergen 14:09, 2014 May 14 (CDT)
Changing D IDs	Which program do you do this in? This may actually need to be different instructions for different scenarios. what queries would get you to change a D_ID? We would want to cross-link them so they point to these instructions, and so these instructions can list them as cause. what queries would get you to change a D_ID for medicine? We would want to cross-link them so they point to these instructions, and so these instructions can list them as cause. How about L TISS Form table, L TISS Item table and L Labs DSM table? Are there others I am not thinking about ? Ttenbergen 22:20, 2019 February 6 (CST)
Characteristics Of ICU Patients Who Died Or Were Readmitted Within Seven Days Of Transfer	how did we support this publication?
Charlson Comorbid Score query	the query needs to be cleared out of CFE once we are done. Possibly sooner, I sort of doubt it is used.
Chart Review Lists	This is linked from the front page and intended to give an idea of how one could use our data. Is there anything on Publications that would be a good example for how our DB was used for this? If not, should we take it out? With nothing here it doesn't look very good coming from front page.
Check CCI CXR vs LOS	would we not use Accept DtTm here? Because we could have CXRs on days before arrival... started implementation but had question for Julie, added below
Check CRF vs ARF across multiple encounters	I think this section is largely old rules that no longer apply with how we define Comorbid Diagnosis now, ie if something was clearly present before admission we can now code it, even if it had not been diagnosed. Are any of these still required, with that in mind? Ttenbergen 21:17, 2018 October 26 (CDT) Using the ICD10 renal codes, we still need to know when the transition from acute to chronic occurs - so we can decide whether the multiple encounters consistency checking is still relevant. --JMojica 11:51, 2018 November 14 (CST) is the transition on the next hospital stay? Example in this hospital stay, patient is diagnosed with ARF and stayed continuously in both ICU and ward in same or different hospital. On the next hospital stay, he is now chronic renal patient. Or the transition is on the next ICU or ward stay? Ex. the first stay is ICU and diagnosed with ARF. then patient was transferred in a ward of same or diff hospital - is he now a chronic renal patient? The data collection instructions are in the related pages, and additional info is in Renal Coding Considerations for ICD10, but they are a beast of a network of concepts. Those might tell you how we currently propose to collect the renal codes, but not necessarily what you or the users of the data would want. Usually these cross checks would be driven by what you need for data requests, so do our proposed instructions line up with how you want to use this? Or is this maybe too case-by-case of a concept to even make a cross check? Ttenbergen 18:59, 2019 January 6 (CST)
Check ICD10 some cant be primary	Como Admit Acquired Primary Limits - Category:Mechanism would need to be excluded as well, and so would past history, and quickly the list gets so large again that we are back at discussing Controlling Dx Type for ICD10 codes where we should simply include "Primary"-ability. AG OBSERVATION --- we will just take care of this when we take care of Admit/Comorbid/Acquired
Check Inf Potential Infection must have pathogen or alt combined code	This would cause extra collection work, since there are quite a few potential infections (most of the NOS codes are potential infections), and a lot of them would not usually be infections. Do we really want to do this or can we decline it?
Check TISS Intubation consistent	this cross check would not know the difference between (on one day, intubated, extubated, and reintubated) vs (intubated and then extubated); while this hopefully not too common of a thing, would it cause false positives for Pagasa to run after? Ttenbergen 11:33, 2018 October 29 (CDT) yes that is correct because both have a difference of zero. Using the cut off GTE Abs(2) will get true negatives and not false positives. This query considers only the counts and not the dates which will have numerous scenarios and too complicated to define. For those having a difference of -1,0,1 , there are also the possibility for incorrect sequence of dates of intubation or extubation - this is not captured in the query. If you have other suggestions, let us know.--JMojica 12:19, 2018 October 29 (CDT) What I was trying to say is that I am worried this would be a false positive, which will then create work load for Pagasa and/or Collectors to confirm. Do we really want cross checks that bring up potential errors? We have talked about this before, but never really come up with a general answer. Should we take it to task meeting? Ttenbergen 23:45, 2018 October 29 (CDT) Are you saying I should use "difference between A and B can be -2, -1, 0, 1, 2. Other values will be questionable? The basic scenarios are 1. no new insert and no extubation (0-0=0) , 2. no new insert and then extubated - this assumes currently with tube and then extubated (0-1=-1), 3. insert new tube and no extubation(1-0=1), 4) insert new tube and then extubated (1-1=0). When there are 2 insertions, the valid number of extubations =1,2,3 even if occurring at same or different days as insertion day, the difference will either be -1,0,1. Same holds true with 3 insertions or 4 insertions. there will be definite errors if the difference is >= 2 or <= -2. Having 1 insertion and 3 extubations or 3 insertions and 1 extubation are not possible and are errors. Scenario: Pt arrives intubated. On day 1, they are extubated. On day 2 they are intubated, extubated and then intubated again on the same day, which will look on TISS as one insertion on that day and one removal. If you then had a removal the next day you will have an error because you have a count of 3 extubations with only 1 intubation. yes, this scenario if indeed correct has to be checked with the dates and also not that frequent. I found a case of 3 days extubations and 1 day insertion which is questionable because the 2nd day extubation (4/18/2018) is not the same day as the insertion day (4/16/2018) and the 3rd extubation day is 4/23/2018 - is there a missing insertion before 4/23 or an extra extubation 4/18 or 4/23? Actually, the most common cases are either extubations >= 2 and zero intubations or zero extubation and intubations >= 2 which we assume as missed bubble that is why -2 and 2 are not included in the acceptable values. When I discussed with Trish the scenario you have cited, she said we still need an audit so we are aware and clear about the cases of two insertions done in a day.--JMojica 10:19, 2018 November 21 (CST) I will have to sit down with this and work through it.
Check VAP acquired only first encounter	We decided that VAP can actually happen in medicine if pt admitted from ICU. How would we deal with that for this check?
Check drugs vs TISS	Have all info now, Allan confirmed drug list. Once implemented let Julie know so she can not do this in SAS any longer
Check organ donors must be dead	Might not be able to check this for organ donors, but Sudden cardiac death (and died) should always have a Dispo=dead... do we want or need a check for that? Are there other things like it? pls refer to comment on Check dx implying death across encounters. If we would like to check organ donors in admit diagnosis to have disposition=died, then the admit diagnosis must also have any of the Brain death,Sudden cardiac death (and died) and Medical Assistance In Dying codes. In this way the live organ donor will be excluded in the rule. --JMojica 16:32, 2018 November 15 (CST) I don't understand what you are saying there. This check is for CCMDB.mdb, ie not across encounters. With that in mind, do you agree that the check is not possible to do in CCMDB, ie the check on this page is not feasible. The other checks Check dx implying death across encounters and Check dx implying death must be dispo deceased can still be done. Ttenbergen 00:37, 2018 November 19 (CST)
Check pre acute consistent	what exactly do we want to check for? Please also have a look at the stuff below that doesn't specifically have your name. This requested check ties into a bunch of things and if we want the check we need to be sure that instructions stay consistent and lose ends are tied up. There was a previous attempt to address some of this in Care levels in the community; this page and it need to be consistent, and consistently linked from the relevant field definitions. If we can get it short enough we might make a template to apply the instructions to each of the field pages. How does Chronic Health Facility fit into this? There was talk about comparing Postal Codes to known PCH Postal Codes. Since these might Include other buildings at the same site that are not PCHs, this check can at best be a soft check. Please add the list of these postal codes here. from a data perspective, what do you mean by "admitted directly"? If I were to build a check, where would I find that? OR maybe I don't need to know, but then I need to have a definition of what combination of data would be an error. Integrity check if Previous Location field ='Home' then Pre acute living situation field is either Apartment, Assisted Living,Supportive Housing,Prison / Jail / Correctional Institution or House; otherwise Error. if Previous Location field = 'Deer Lodge' or 'Riverview' or 'St Amant' then Pre acute living situation field = Chronic Health Facility; otherwise Error. if Previous Location field = 'any PCH location' then Pre acute living situation field = Personal Care Home; otherwise Error. ... unless they are discharged somewhere else entirely, like another ward. So what do we really mean with this? That they can't come from one PCH and go to another or maybe "home" after all? I realize this maybe hard to do. what I mean here is that if one is already a PCH resident, when leaving the hospital, the dispo location must be a PCH location too. or is a patient is already in CHF, the destination when leaving the hospital must either be a CHF or another PCH. Need to look at the PCH Postal code data. It may be relevant to this check that we have ICD10 Imprisonment/incarceration and other info in Prison / Jail / Correctional Institution.
Chest Physio (TISS Item)	sounds to me like this is still done differently by different people. Ttenbergen 12:58, 2017 July 27 (CDT)
Chronic Health APACHE	Dx grouping AG REPLY -- Tina I don't know what the question is here. just flagging it to sort with the others so we can deal with it when we address them.
Chronic kidney disease (chronic renal insufficiency, uremia) Stage 1
Chronic kidney disease (end-stage kidney disease, ESRD), Stage 5
Chronic kidney disease, NOS (stage unspecified)
Cleaning up a failed send	How do you figure out why it happened? What are likely scenarios here? Is this related to Procedure when there are differences between L Log and L PHI or Orphans in Centralized data.mdb?
Clinically significant gastrointestinal bleeding in critically ill patients in an era of stress prophylaxis	how did we support this publication?
Collection Location Service Type	What is CTE? I am adding it for now because not having it is breaking SMW, but we really should not have it here if it isn't defined.
Colonized with organism (not infected)	make sure this is consistent with Lab and culture reports Are all of these actually things that can colonize without infection? We should only list those here that can. I started adding in links but then decided to hold off in case a lot of them drop off this list. Ttenbergen 15:34, 2018 November 28 (CST) The above list is those organisms that require isolation. You may want to move this list to the Isolation, infectious section.--LKolesar 07:06, 2018 December 24 (CST)
Comfort Care	There had been a reference that this could stop when ICD10 comes. Why was that? Is it because we will start collecting Palliative care? Because that is not really the same definition... We will need to update a the reference to this in Palliative_care#This_code_vs_Comfort_Care once decided.
Community Nursing Home Location Helper
Community-acquired pneumonia (CAP) in ICD10	What does that even mean, since we don't have a code for CAP?
Comorbid Diagnosis	Como Admit Acquired Primary Limits - this is part of that discussion - if we limit which admits will count as comos we need to review
Comparison of ICU Antibiotic Use and Costs in Pnuemonia Admission in Two Urban Centers	how did we support this publication?
Comparison of ICU Investigation Patterns & Costs in Two Urban Centers	how did we support this publication?
Completeness of TISS records	we will track the TISS outstanding status in the L_PHI.notes field that field will be made available in CFE underneath notes field email button will be changed to store in L_PHI.notes Pagasa will clear notes field when done update definition for "vetted" to reflect it does not include TISS move all TISS queries into CFE
Confidential waste disposal
Constructing episodes of inpatient care: data infrastructure for population-based research	how did we support this publication?
Contingency locations
Continuous Stay	need to integrate Julie's definition pasted here into this page
Controlling Dx Type for ICD10 codes	not needed at go-live; Need to export the list and plan process that includes the extra items below. To export, see S_ICD10_table#Query_to_populate_s_ICD10_table_from_wiki. Como Admit Acquired Primary Limits / Dx grouping - this is part of both of those discussion I have emailed Allan the table with all Dxs to set them as Como_allowed, Admit_allowed, Acquired_allowed. Will set up infrastructure to contain this once I have data. Ttenbergen 12:31, 2019 February 13 (CST) Ignore until at least April.
Conversion from our old diagnosis schema to ICD10/CCI	transition plan to CCI/ICD10 details... need to confirm this is documented, as in tied together and interlinked from relevant places
Correcting suspect links	update when the button has been added: When done, click the ... button to confirm all link_suspects queries are clean.
Crash TISS MDB	TISS28 Form Scanning doesn't have a step for run reports... is this still a thing?
Critical Care Vital Signs Monitoring	It says that CCVSM is in Quarterly report. If CCVSM is no longer, is it still in quarterly?
Critical Care and Medicine Database Core Curriculum	How does Critical Care and Medicine Database Core Curriculum co-exist with Data Collector Portal? The audience is different, one is for newbies and one as day-to-day reference, but how does that change what needs to be told, without just duplicating all? Ttenbergen 21:08, 2019 January 3 (CST)
DSM Lab Extract
Data Collector Portal	How does Critical Care and Medicine Database Core Curriculum co-exist with Data Collector Portal? The audience is different, one is for newbies and one as day-to-day reference, but how does that change what needs to be told, without just duplicating all? Ttenbergen 21:08, 2019 January 3 (CST)
Data Processor	leave these for now, Tina will go over these and take those that are not really data processing out of the category before we try to address the rest.
Data collector's binder	Is there other stuff in there? This page is likely only worth keeping if it is linked from Critical Care and Medicine Database Core Curriculum, and before that it should get good content. Should we make it good or get rid of it?
Data dictionary	something went wrong with this query and it has no data Attempt at a easier to follow data dictionary. Is this what you had in mind? Yes, this is what I have in mind. Thanks. Some suggestions: I just notice some start dates are not the actual start dates - It is important for the users to know how far back the data are available so they can decide the covered period of their study. is it possible to change the date to actual earliest collection start date (not 1 Jan 1900). --JMojica 10:05, 2019 January 3 (CST) The start and end dates are stored on the individual pages. If the list shows 1900 then they were not filled in. If you know what they are and fill them in then this page will list them. I can also change the default if-not-filled value in templates to something other than 1900-01-01. I just needed a value for ranges and filters to work. Ttenbergen 14:49, 2019 January 3 (CST) add a column for program (Critical care only or Medicine only or both). I can do that, but the table is already getting quite wide for a web page. Can we lose any of the columns we currently have? The info you mean is always visible in the pages themselves as well, in case that's sufficient. But, yes, we can tweak what the tables should show. It is done in Template:DataDictionaryQuery (details visible once you edit it...) and removing fields would be easy enough. I can show you how to add fields. Or I can add them once we confirm what we want. Tina has changed the ICD10 and CCI templates to use a startdate of 2019-01-01 and will change other default dates as I receive dates Julie wants me to use.
Deceased patients
Definition of an ICU admission	The following was written here, is it true? : For ICU patients collection starts at unit Arrive DtTm.
Delirium days	What are the details?
Differences Between Intensive Care Unit Admissions Located In Rural And Urban Hospitals In A Canadian Population	how did we support this publication?
Direct Data Access for RIS/PACS	Z) Should we pursue this now? Where would it be on our priorities? It might be related to CCI coding.
Discharge Register	The following needs clarification, I don't have a report in front of me, how would a new collector read which of these are EMIPs and which not? Emailed Laura Ttenbergen 16:53, 2019 January 3 (CST) is this just available for STB or is this how GRACE and HSC can find in EPR?Trish Ostryzniuk 18:01, 2019 January 3 (CST) I would think that all the hospitals have this because it is just a demographic issue and I believe that everyone has access to this, just get them to test it in other centers to make sure.--LKolesar 07:56, 2019 January 4 (CST)
DiscussSteering
Distinct Determinants of Short-term and Long-term Mortality After Critical Illness	how did we support this publication?
Drug or biological substance/agent NOS, adverse effect	Had code T88.7 when we first started but was later changed to this code. I have deleted the original code from the tables, but it might still linger in other references. Once you are sure you don't need this info, please delete the comment. Since this would only exist in test data we don't need to keep it long-term.
EMIP
EPR	we need to update this...
EPR Reports	Is it only your sites, or all sites in Regional. Do you use them to obtain transfers admits and discharges?
Early Administration of Crystalloid Fluids Reduces Mortality in Septic Shock	how did we support this publication?
Early combination antibiotic therapy yields improved survival compared with monotherapy in septic shock: a propensity-matched analysis	how did we support this publication?
Early intravenous unfractionated heparin and mortality in septic shock	how did we support this publication?
Effects of a Resource Mangement System on ICU Laboratory Utilization	how did we support this publication?
Effects on patients, physicians and families of 24 hour, on-site intensivist coverage in academic and community ICU care	how did we support this publication?
Eliminating a diagnosis from collection
Eliminating distinction between different ward types	any of Julie's Reporting that use this concept? CTU vs NTU - we decided at task that we wanted to eliminate the distinction. A lot of things are part of their network of information, so we will need to work out the details above before we can move ahead. I believe it was only related to transfer ready DtTm between CTU and NTU not eliminate the concept. Medicine program would have to weigh in. Trish Ostryzniuk 16:11, 2018 July 30 (CDT) I seem to remember the reason to stop doing this also involved that we have more and more locations that don't fall into a clean place. For now we pretend we can give medicine this data, but is it true and meaningful? Ttenbergen 15:51, 2018 July 31 (CDT) Allan will contact the medicine stakeholders about eliminating this distinction. Will email Mary-Ann Lynch, VanAmeyde, Griffin. Ttenbergen 12:18, 2019 January 24 (CST) pinged again for Allan to Follow-up. Ttenbergen 13:44, 2019 February 25 (CST) AG REPLY: DONE. NOBODY is using or seeking this info. So let's stop collecting it.
Employee Assistance Program
Encounter processing	says inactive, but do you actually do this? Is there anything else to it? Do we have, and do you run any multi-encounter checks yet? I guess a lot of the PLs kind of are those...
Ethical and practical considerations of withdrawal of treatment in the Intensive Care Unit	how did we support this publication?
External Files
Facilitated Management of Serial numbers

Guideline for coding organ donation after death	which of the many LOS? Will the same apply to the other Diagnosis implying death? People have expressed concern about the that there might be significant interventions listed on TISS in the time between Brain death and pt leaving the unit; will we continue to do TISS for this, and how will TISS scores for this time affect any reporting? If we exclude the time from LOS it will mess with the N for this. once decided we may need to adjust cross checks, namely Query TISS Errors NrTISSDays NE LOS; Query TISS Errors missing days; Query TISS Errors TISS date out of admission The following in Correcting suspect links will need to be updated for this: Link suspect dead then alive query would it be right to say that these are allowed so long as the Admit Diagnosis is Brain death? How about other? Link suspect mismatch to ours incomplete query would it be right to say that these are allowed so long as any diagnosis is Brain death? (not just acquired, since mayyyyybe the pt came from a third site and it's the admit...) What are the instructions for this? Would they go through the exercise of declaring such a patient's Brain death or would we capture them as Acquired Diagnosis MAID and Dispo "Death - to OR" or more problematically "Death - to other ICU" ? Inter-facility transfers Critical Care Inter-facility Transfer Report if this looks at Dispo it will be affected, if it looks at Previous Location it would be fine; Julie, does this need to be reconsidered? Re-admission - based on how just plain transfers are exempted from this, it might be affected. Please see and fix page for more. As per Allan, "It’s necessary to avoid double counting the death for patients who transfer after brain death". Mortality and readmission report - that page has very limited information. Is this report still done? If so, can we update that and make sure this change won't mess with it? Are there other reports that count death rates or mortality? If so we should make a page for it and add it to Category:End-of-life related data and make sure it records how we will address this scenario. Ttenbergen 16:04, 2019 May 21 (CDT) transfer delays (Transfer Delay - currently says it's only for survivors. Is that still true? If so it will need to be adjusted. Is that actually right, to exclude deceased pt? They were still delayed while alive. Excluding them may be inconsistent with our definition of Transfer Ready as the first time they are ready. Julie, which reports and what linking will be affected by this, so we can update the related wiki pages? Firstly, Medicine is the only one which report linked admissions during a hospitalization. If a medicine patient happens to go to an ICU, died, an organ donor and move to another ICU , this rule is saying do not consider the second ICU. what will be the LOS of that hospitalization - I presume this rule will exclude the second ICU stay, is that correct? I had one patient where they withdrew care in the unit then went directly to the OR to harvest the organs. What do we do in this case?--LKolesar 08:03, 2019 June 5 (CDT)

HD (Hemodialysis)	I need clarification on this one-if a patient is either dialysed in Emerg, or on a different ward, (ie. anytime during the current hospitalization prior to coming to your area), are we to enter this only as an admit CCI?Mlagadi 10:26, 2019 February 11 (CST) Please have a look at Admit Procedure, it should explain whether to code a procedure or not. There is no explicit exception for Dialysis. If the info there does not give you the answer you need, please elaborate. If the info is there, then, would you have looked there? How can we make clearer to look there? Ttenbergen 11:53, 2019 February 13 (CST) We used to have a special procedure for indicating if a renal transplant patient received dialysis post transplant under the tasks. If we are now only coding HD once, it will often be missed if the patient required HD post renal transplant. Do we care about collecting this information? There is the post procedural renal failure code that will be coded in the acquireds, but this does not automatically mean that they received dialysis. AG REPLY -- I don't see any special reason to need this info. Unless Julie tells us it's being requested, I think we can do without it. Julie, what are your thoughts on this? Ttenbergen 11:53, 2019 February 13 (CST)

High dose chemotherapy as primary admit	This page is listed as an exception in Definition of a Medicine Service admission so I wanted to make sure we include that instruction with the new codes. However, what _is_ the new code for this? Found nothing suitable in CCI Picklist, CCI component 2 codes - what was done, and ICD10 Diagnosis List only has Antineoplastic/chemotherapy or immunosuppressive drugs, adverse effect which doesn't seem a real match either. In general we would only code the cancer now, right, but this is a bit of a special case, so do we want to treat it separately? AG REPLY -- we don't need this at all and there's no way to code it specifically in ICD10 -- except that such an admission would have the Dx code of the cancer being treated, and the CCI code for the chemotherapy emailed Julie and Trish to make sure they are comfortable with this. Trish, if you are fine with how this is or isn't addressed in ICD10 going fwd, pls remove the tag

Hypertension, malignant	_q2 I would like to submit the following definition for peer review and discussion for Malignant Hypertension. Malignant Hypertension is extremely high blood pressure that develops rapidly and causes some type of organ damage. "Normal" blood pressure is <140/90. A person with Malignant Hypertension has a BP typically >180/120 --mvpenner 11:02, 2015 April 15 had a brief look at https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hypertensive_emergency and it looks like additional things need to be present to define as hypertension. would you be OK if we just linked to there as we do fro many articles? Ttenbergen 15:27, 2015 April 15 Thank you!--mvpenner 06:04, 2015 April 16 Does that mean you agree that adding a link would be a solution/improvement? Ttenbergen 17:39, 2015 April 16 Thank Tina. I agree with posting the link, but also see benifit in having a brief summary in the definitions.--mvpenner 07:56, 2015 April 20 (CDT) Sure, but it needs to include all the relevant parts. From reading the wikipedia entry I didn't think the one you proposed would. Could someone more medical weigh in? I am just looking at it from a consistency angle... Ttenbergen 13:55, 2015 April 20 I think the abbreviated definition is clear and helpful. More info would probably make it less readableMlagadi 15:13, 2019 May 14 (CDT) I absolutely agree that any additional text makes is extra text to read ;-) but I want to make sure we don't leave out something vital. I'll leave this on Allan's list for now, hopefully we can get an answer at our next meeting.

Ttenbergen 10:57, 2018 August 2 (CDT) This is an older discussion and I think the form has changed since. Do we still have sorting issues in the ICD10 form?

ICUotherService	When a CICU pt is in MICU under MICU service we do not have an option in the drop down for this (this occasionally happens when they have no beds). We also do not have an option for an MICU pt in CICU under CICU service (although I do not know if this ever happens but I suppose it could happen).--LKolesar 14:02, 2019 May 3 (CDT)
ID cards	This is info we might best keep in collaboration with the Internal Medicine folks, as it should be the same and we could learn from each other / prevent duplication. would it be OK to move this to https://wiki.umintmed.ca/index.php?title=Arrange_for_ID_Badge_%26_Access with a link from here? Trish, you and I at least would still have rights to edit it there, if other CCMDB people need an account we can get it for them. Emailed Trish Ttenbergen 11:28, 2018 March 20 (CDT) Tina, I prefer not to move there as I don't need to be log into another Wiki. Trish Ostryzniuk 17:50, 2019 April 3 (CDT) You would only need to log in if you need to edit, and that would only be once in a blue moon. There would be several advantages: more people to keep it up to date, and maybe putting ourselves on the map a bit more as part of the department.

Isolation, infectious	For patients who are admitted and have pre existing MRSA to code infectious isolation as an acquired CCI code is counterintuitive if it is present and treated with isolation on admission. Pre existing colonization would be included as an ADMIT DX if treated with isolation, and the isolation would be included as an admit CCI procedure. I agree, it does feel counterintuitive, but if we are following the WIKI guidelines, it seems like this is how we are supposed to code it. I think their is currently a lot of discrepancy in how this is being coded. there seems to be confusion all around when to code something as an admit vs acquired vs comorbid. One example we have seen, someone comes in to ICU with stab would injury to heart, has had cardiac arrests, and is in shock. We see the trauma injury to heart coded as comordid. Need to discuss collection instruction tweek that would help Allan recently updated Admit Procedure with info that is relevant to this. I wonder if the instructions on this page are just a remnant from an earlier iteration of the Admit instructions. As I read the current ones, you would not code this. But yes, good we are taking it to Task...
Kidney, acute tubular necrosis (ATN)	If a patient has ATN on admission and later requires CRRT for kidney failure, do we need to put an acquired code of Kidney, acute renal failure NOS or not? The crrt goes into the CCI codes. --LKolesar 12:11, 2018 December 5 (CST) What is special about this dx that would have you not code it? Is it that you are wondering whether coding a CCI means you don't have to code a dx? They are different things, you would still need to code the dx. Am I misunderstanding the question? Ttenbergen 07:09, 2018 December 14 (CST) ATN does not necessarily imply the need for dialysis but if this distinction is no longer necessary, then I won't worry about it.--LKolesar 07:41, 2018 December 31 (CST) Laura, are you concerned about this in terms of whether a cross check would find a dx that explains the CRRT, or where are you coming from with this question? Ttenbergen 20:03, 2018 December 31 (CST)
Kidney, renal failure/insufficiency/uremia, unspecified as acute or chronic	_q2 This specific kidney code states it is "unspecified as acute or chronic". I tried to use this code to hook up to make a uremic pericardial effusion/ pericarditis but I get the error message because this is a Stage 5 CRF patient. Because this code is unspecified I think it should be allowed to use it in this case unless there is a better option for chronic uremia causing pericarditis and effusion. Need advice on this. --LKolesar 11:52, 2019 May 6 (CDT) Another option could be to link pericarditis with Abnormal blood chemistry NOS. This wouldn't be as specific though...Mlagadi 12:00, 2019 May 6 (CDT)

L ICD10 APACHE Dx query	You and Allan discussed what should be on the list. At some point we will need to integrate the result into this query. Did you end up including Acquireds? Since the first 24hrs might include them, but they might happen later, and the difference is not clear from Dx_Date? Ttenbergen 20:20, 2018 November 24 (CST)
L ICD10 subform	I changed this around a bit so there is a background that ties the types together on the left, and the priorities on the right. Also changed it so that the priorities use different colours than the types. It doesn't look particularly nice, but the point was to group things better. So, does it do that? If not, do you have a suggestion what would (ideally without taking up much more space). Also, yuck, even if it does the trick, how would we make it look a bit less awful? Please comment below.

LOS Medicine per hospital admission	this still talks about TMSX... what is the new status of this field? I think you made several of these at some point. Did we do anything even categorize them? If we annotate them right we can include them in the Data dictionary ...
LOS Medicine per ward stay	Hi Dr. Garland,A thought came up after the last Task meeting related to the discussion on using Service LOS vs. Physical bed LOS (location). We also have A/D/H service patients go to the ward D5. This ward is typically less acute and patients will transfer to D5 from all of the medicine wards (A4/H4/D4/B3/H7). The patients retain their service (A/D/H) while they are on D5, some patients will switch attending (to the D5 Attending), others will stay with the same Attending they had prior to arrival on D5, but the service will remain the same. The Attendings on D5 do not have a specific service and, there is no rule as to which patients switch to the D5 attending. Some patients will be discharged from D5 still under the same Attending that cared for them prior to arrival on D5. When patients leave A4/D4/H4/B3/H7 their profiles are completed (discharged) by the designated ward collector and a new profile is created by the D5 collector.Thanks, Val Penner, May 16.19 ward LOS vs Service LOS - Val Penner - HSC-D5 follow up from May 7 task meeting- May 16.19

List of Factor affecting data quality	These points about improving APACHE were made a long time ago. Since then we added a listing for default values and ranges, and the BP Helper button, and the reference values and ranges on the Patient viewer tab APACHE. Would you say that these issues are addressed or is this still a problem? These comments were made a long time ago, before we used EPR, and before we split the admit time into Accept DtTm and Arrive DtTm. Are any of these still relevant? If not I would like to clean them out. We certainly have more guidelines now than we did in 2011... is this still a concern?

Medical Assistance In Dying	When we started out this dx used code U23, but then as of 2018-07-17 ICD10 actually added a code for this so we changed ours to that code.

Night Time Discharges	Why only to wards? How about to home?
Non-standard ICD10 Diagnoses	Dx grouping With our addition of codes, collectors may use one of our codes rather than the closest standard ICD10 code. In that case, the dx would not show up in the range. How should we address this? The most likely candidates above seem Bronchiolitis obliterans organizing pneumonia (BOOP, cryptogenic organizing pneumonia (COP)) and SARS (severe acute respiratory syndrome) AG REPLY -- for this nonstd BOOP code, there are no existing issues regarding any of the comorbid groups (e.g. Charlson) Allan, could you confirm that that this is what we found when we looked into BOOP. AG REPLY --- so far Tina the only 2 U-codes that would ever be a primary dx are U04 and U14.68 -- which belong respectively to ICD10 chapters J and E. But whenever we add a new U-code we need to remember to decide which chapter (if any) it needs to be included under. Tina to add to template.
Notes field	Do you use diagnosis information before patients are complete, e.g. Primary Admit Diagnosis? Yes, I use the primary diagnosis for the reason of readmission even if the record status is incomplete. --JMojica 09:07, 2018 December 6 (CST)

Object with variable error
Off ward field	Current way of checking through transfer list from ER will miss off ward patients who arrived at off-ward locations from elsewhere than emerg. Laura and Tina discussed, did not find solution yet, should be rare, though. 13:41, 2017 March 1 (CST) We collect data on some patients who never arrive on one of our units, e.g. EMIPs any other scenarios? There was a page for the HSC off warders I think...)
Organ donor (organ/tissue donation by the donor)	Why would it not be an Acquired Diagnosis? They may have been admitted for Preparatory care (incl preop optimization), no? Or would they then not be on a ward where we collect because we are not surgical? If I understand Guideline for coding organ donation after death right we will not actually be coding Organ donor (organ/tissue donation by the donor) for deceased patients , since that will always happen elsewhere, and pt won't come back to us after, so not our dx. If I understand that right we should probably put a one-liner here to make that clear since it's a bit counter-intuitive. And likely at that page as well. What date in the Acquired Diagnosis do you put for this code? Do you use the date that they decide the pt will be an organ donor? Or would you prefer the date the patient goes to the OR (which would be the same as the discharge date? These patients go to a different ward after transplant, right? So we would likely not currently track the CCI for this. Maybe transplants are something we should track if they are at the end of stay. I'll flag this for Allan. I am referring to an organ donor (not a transplant recipient). Most donors go to the morgue after donating their organs in the OR. I am not asking about CCI, just the date for the acquire ICD10 code. I am not sure who wrote the above comment.

It is showing up in STB_CICU as one of the most common acquire codes? Is this not part of standard orders for care for post surgical pts? Some are applying this code when physio comes to see pts, others are would use this code if it is a significant reason impacting LOS. We are not consistent to be looking in charts if physio came and did the work or not. --Julie and Trish. * I agree, most surgical patients get physio consults. Is it important to track who gets physio consults or is this also for nurses who provide physical rehab care or is this for occupational therapy?? We have chest physio on the tiss. To me this is not a diagnosis and am wondering why it is even in the ICD 10 codes.--LKolesar 07:44, 2019 May 7 (CDT)
Pneumonia, ventilator-associated (VAP)	where is that list of sources, did it get lost in an edit? Is the following only for the immunocompromised patients, or for all? As you are likely aware, it is important to establish a specific incident date for a VAP. When a VAP swoop is done, the chart is audited for VAP bundle compliance during the previous 72 hours of patient care. Before this new criteria was implemented, we used the date the culture from the ETT was sent and was positive for a pathogen. I think we need to have clear guidelines as to which date to choose now with the new criteria. The options are: 1.Date when all criteria are met. 2.When all criteria are met except the CXR if the CXR was done later. 3.At first evidence that a potential VAP is brewing. (eventually does meet all the criteria). We would appreciate your expertise in determining what is best. I will forward your recommendations to the VAP committee here and we should have it written into our wiki criteria as well. Thanks so much! Laura, as per email to Allan- May 16.19
Postoperative laboratory and imaging investigations in intensive care units following coronary artery bypass grafting: A comparison of two Canadian hospitals	how did we support this publication?
Potential Change
Pre op Admit-Cardiovasc Patient	This is not coded under ICD10 or CCI. Do we report this, and therefore need to accommodate otherwise, or how will we treat this? We have Preparatory care (incl preop optimization) but that doesn't capture the full concept. Ttenbergen 22:45, 2018 November 27 (CST)
Pre-2017-07-30 Overstay Predictor Project Collection Instructions
Pre-OP Admit - Research Patient - Cardiovascular	This is not coded under ICD10 or CCI. Do we report this, and therefore need to accommodate otherwise, or how will we treat this? We have Preparatory care (incl preop optimization) but that doesn't capture the full concept. Ttenbergen 22:45, 2018 November 27 (CST)
Pre-linking checks	not working right now due to PL_SamePHIN_Site_Diff_chart size limit This automatic list includes an PL missing L Tables content - where does it fit in into the order in which you run these above? It is likely a very first thing, right?
Preparatory care (incl preop optimization)	needs to go elsewhere
Previous Location field	In the instructions above it says to select "other - known but not listed" this is not in the dropdown as an option. Turns out location missing/unknown wasn't implemented either. Is there any concern if we implement this now?
Previous Service field	The Registry Patient Type field was replaced by the Previous Service field, how will the patient types be derived from the previous service field? the s_previous_service table must have a column defining the patient type. Patient Type is Surgical if previous service is Cardiac Surgery, General surgery ,etc., Patient type is Cardiac if previous service is Cardiology, what about Patient type Medical? if Ob/Gyne or Emergency Medicine, is it Medical type? how about critical care? It was also mentioned earlier to use the diagnosis instead, can we begin working on this? --JMojica 15:48, 2019 May 21 (CDT) If I remember right it the Registry Patient Type data was supposed to be inferred from several fields, not just Previous Service field, but I can't remember the details either. We can absolutely add a column for this to s_previous_service table once we know what we need. Ttenbergen 12:49, 2019 June 4 (CDT)
Primary Admit Diagnosis	They are used in the periodic quarter and fiscal year reports of both the Critical Care and Medicine Programs. (Julie) are the two I linked to above those reports? Ttenbergen 14:03, 2015 April 20 (CDT) How will the primary admit dx involving ICD10 be handled - another query? or be combined to Primary_admit of old dx? --JMojica 09:17, 2019 January 31 (CST) I have built query Query L_ICD10_primary and documented it. Julie, once you have found this and read it, please delete. The query Primary_admit of CFE contains multi records per D_ID. These are the records with admit dates before or on Dec 31, 2018 and are still in the unit by Jan 1, 2019. The L_Dxs of these cases have all the same priority number. I updated Query L_Dxs_w_primary and query Primary_Admit to exclude all records of patients with Dispo DtTm > 2019-01-01
Printer
Procedure when there are differences between L Log and L PHI	Why, what does that tell you? The only way I can imagine this would happen is if the record was deleted in centralized L_Log. In that case, if you are lucky and there is still a ccmdb_data with the completed/sent record, you can follow the Re-sending data process. If not, find it in a previous version of Centralized data.mdb, print or write down all data for the record, and manually re-enter it in a CCMDB.mdb and follow the Re-sending data process. Or what do you do? Ttenbergen 21:38, 2019 February 6 (CST)
Processing errors in patient data	It is not really clear what the steps are for Link suspect negative transit time query in regards to checking and correcting between EPR and Centralized Data. --Srusnak 17:32, 2017 January 5 (CST) Automate the populating of notes so button just does it. raise an input box for a summary, if gets content put data and content into Notes, else put nothing.
Project ABO TEE	If there is no TEE done pre-CPB (cardiopulmonary bypass), then can you use a pre-op standard Echo-cardiogram for this?--LKolesar 13:19, 2015 September 16 (CDT) Could you ask the cardiologists who wanted this data this question? Ttenbergen 22:28, 2019 March 9 (CST)
Project Borrow arrive	did they ever get back to us? no response from HSC SICU --JMojica 10:14, 2019 May 6 (CDT)
Proposed Notes field default
QA Infection VAP	will we still need to collect this in ICD10, since I think all the data now lives in the dx codes as well. I am holding off on implementing Query s tmp QAInf tmp no dx until resolved. same reply as in QA CLI. --JMojica 12:04, 2018 December 27 (CST)
QA Septic Shock	Is "Every entry for project QA Septic must have either a date or a time." a request for a cross check? or does that check exist already?
Quarterly report	What is the Quarterly report report?
Query Import request matcher	This part of the cross-check is now well understood and ready to program. This one is fairly easy, Pagasa will try to make it.
Query NDC CLI AcqDX but NoCLI DateinTMPV2	ICD/CCI remove once old pt gone
Query NDC CLI No AcqDX but CLI DateinTMPV2	ICD/CCI remove once old pt gone
Query NDC CLI unacceptable date	ICD/CCI remove once old pt gone
Query NDC CLI vs DX but no TISS17 CentralLine	ICD/CCI remove once old pt gone
Query NDC VAP AcqDX but NoVAP DateinTMPV2	ICD/CCI remove once old pt gone
Query NDC VAP No AcqDX but VAP DateinTMPV2	ICD/CCI remove once old pt gone
Query NDC VAP no TISS	FYI Maybe Pneumonia,_ventilator-associated_(VAP)#VAPs_on_medicine_wards mentions to use the same rules as for other Acquired Diagnoses, ie the dx is acquired where it first manifests, so this check or rule no longer makes sense. If you are OK with this, please take this note out, else pls comment here.
Query NDC VAP unacceptable date	ICD/CCI remove once old pt gone
Query TISS Errors ETT consistent	A patient might arrive intubated, so there would be no intubation. Does this check really make sense? Ttenbergen 23:23, 2019 March 25 (CDT)
Query TISS Errors NrTISSDays NE LOS	Tina to break out this standard check information to a different page to link to... and clean up duplication
Query TISS Errors missing days	which report/s are these actually included in?
Query check CCI must have entry	Patients without CCI entries are slipping through and found by PL missing L Tables content , must fix PTorres 09:42, 2019 February 7 (CST)
Query check ICD10 ESRD vs AP ARF	some of these give false positives for transplants, review what's up. I have heard nothing else about these false positives I think - are they still an issue? Ttenbergen 15:19, 2019 June 18 (CDT)
Query check ICD10 ESRD vs ARF	some of these give false positives for transplants, review what's up. I have heard nothing else about these false positives I think - are they still an issue? Ttenbergen 15:19, 2019 June 18 (CDT)
Query check ICD10 duplicates	the count is wrong, there wasn't a quick fix, so disabling the query for now. Ttenbergen 15:56, 2019 March 27 (CDT)
Query check ICD10 mechanism vs trauma	see DA above if this has not been addressed before Task. The outcome of this might cause a change to Template:ICD10 Guideline Iatrogenic and/or Template:ICD10 Guideline Trauma w mechanism Now that this query is actually running (as of May 9) we are getting false positives where the following medical or iatrogenic things are asking for a mechanism: Respiratory tract, foreign body in Rib, fracture, injury/trauma (eg. in context of CPR) Iatrogenic, mechanical complication/dysfunction, dialysis catheter Laura suggested using Mechanism of injury: other NOS, but do we want something more specific? See Category:Iatrogenic mechanism for another curve ball... some of those may need to be allowed (but not required) as mechanisms - or do they? Another possibility would be to introduce the concept of "potential trauma" and change the cross check similar to potential infection. We would need to identify all dxs on the wiki that are potential traumas and might need to be coded with mechanisms. Or, we could decide to do away with this cross check because it's too much trouble? Ttenbergen 20:28, 2019 May 27 (CDT)
Query check ICD10 needs awaiting if TR Dt and Dispo Dt on diff days	There are transfer ready reasons that would not result in an awaiting code. These resulted in false positives. If we want to check for date diff but no awaiting code we will need to enumerate these reasons, and all need to be present in data. I will put aside this half of the query until we address that. Details in wiki page.
Query check ICD10 only 1 stage of renal failure
Query check long transfer delay	This would need to be considered as part of Eliminating distinction between different ward types. Requiring notes to have content is really a very soft error check... do we need to consider something better?
Query s ICD10 Chapter block dxs	any other plans for these?
Questioning data back to collectors	z Possible future scenario: The data processor puts the concern into the Notes field and sets the RecordStatus field to "questioned". Next time the collector sends, the record is returned to the laptop by a series of queries. The collector updates the record, sets it to "complete" and sends it in with the next round of sends, at which time it will be processed like any other record. This process is more automated and would need to be validated before we could implement. It would be the least work for all involved, though, I think. We keep discussing this, talked about it again today. Ttenbergen 17:44, 2016 December 1 (CST)
Questions
R Filter Field	move into dx and eliminate this field ICD/CCI remove once old pt gone
Re-admission	There must be some clause to exempt someone who just comes from a previous internal unit, right? How is that defined? Wondering whether it will be affected by Guideline for coding organ donation after death.
Reassessing Disparities in Access to Intensive Care Using a New Methodology	how did we support this publication?
Reconnect CFE and initial error checks	re-name these so not PL any more Fix why it gives this error as part of fixing DSM process. Tina will fix Query check CCI must have entry so those are caught going forward.
Recurrent seizures following cardiac surgery - risk factors and outcomes	how did we support this publication?
Regional EPR Access	I emailed Joy Lyn Roxas to find out if regular accounts team and Acute care actually share these instructions; if not this might be our problem. Ttenbergen 16:52, 2019 April 17 (CDT)
Removal of Foreign Body	Does this include removal of medical devices (ie. ureteric stent/prosthetic devices...)?Mlagadi 11:36, 2019 May 16 (CDT) As per Implantation_of_Internal_Device#Removals_are_not_coded they are not coded. I wonder what you would code then if that't the main reason someone is admitted. Does that happen? Ttenbergen 15:55, 2019 May 17 (CDT)
Repeat clicks being needed when entering CCI PX Type	investigate and fix
Reporting from ICD10/CCI	Different procedures would be listed with the same CCI code; will Julie easily interpret and utilize CCI codes for reporting? Do we care that we will not be able to differentiate between a Blakemore tube from an Upper GI scope with banding or hemostasis, when in CCI they both look the same: (T) Stomach, pylorus... and Control of Bleeding. --LKolesar 14:11, 2018 May 1 (CDT) discussed at task 14:08, 2018 June 20 (CDT), Julie to review what she needs and we will discuss again Ttenbergen 14:08, 2018 June 20 (CDT)
Requested CCMDB changes for the next version
Requested TISS changes for the next version	What is the intended use of these reports?
Resistance to antimicrobials, methicillin (anti-staph penicillins)	Julie, the above question specifically affects some projects you work with as well - do you think unifying this rule will be a problem for any of them? What is the attribution rule for our program on MRSA colonization? For example if a patient comes from SOGH ICU to the Concordia and tests positive for MRSA in less than 24 hours I would attribute this colonization to the SOGH not the Concordia. Is that correct? If we will have such a rule at all, could it be one that applies to infections in general and would therefore live in Template: ICD10 Guideline Infection. Also, we would want to make sure that "attribution" as a concept doesn't get muddled - if we search for that there are several hits, and we use other terms like "gets credit" elsewhere I believe. And in Lab and culture reports... Allan confirmed that all the attributions should be the same and can be moved into that infection template. Ttenbergen 14:09, 2018 October 29 (CDT) This will mean that I pull the 48hr rule out of the following and instead put it into Template:ICD10 Guideline Infection that is applied to all infections, and/or Infections in ICD10 which is referenced by the template: Iatrogenic, infection, central venous catheter-related bloodstream infection (CVC-BSI, CLI) Pneumonia, ventilator-associated (VAP) CAP-Community Acquired Pneumonia HAP-Hospital Acquired Pneumonia Iatrogenic, infection, urinary catheter there may be others dx right now that my search for 48 did not find because maybe they use a 12 hr or 17 hour... rule. Collectors, can you think of any? Ttenbergen 23:10, 2018 October 30 (CDT) Also affected are : QA Infection CLI Does anyone think making this one rule for all will be a problem?

S ICD10 Chapter block pattern table	Just storing this here for now, it should really be integrated into the SMW like the Charlson and Apache ones. Generated by query CCMDB.mdb.s_ICD10_Chapter_block_pattern_wikimaker.
S ICD10 Charlson Como patterns table	Como Admit Acquired Primary Limits - this is part of that discussion - if we want to limit some of these to not being allowed as admits, it will likely have to be done here. AG REPLY --- yes we can and should go through ALL ICD10 codes and indicate which of the 3 Dx Types they're allowed in (ie deal with Controlling Dx Type for ICD10 codes). AG needs to be reminded to deal with this around June 2019

S dispo chooser	is pre-populating the hospital filter with "local" helpful or not? I can take that out. Ttenbergen 21:50, 2016 March 24 (CDT)
S dispo.loc type	This value is not yet encoded on the wiki as Property:Collection Location Location Type for locations that have their own article, but maybe it should be. Should it be? Ttenbergen 09:46, 2017 November 9 (CST) Indeed, what is the description? Especially in contrast to S dispo.service type; when you give the answer, please put it behind "element_description" above and delete this question.

STB CICU Collection Guide	This detail should not be on the public wiki, so I moved Info to the CICU collector profile page for now as that is not public. Need to think more about were else this would better live in Private Wiki. Thanks for posting this info. Trish Ostryzniuk 11:19, 2019 February 27 (CST) While the password protected wiki is relatively secure, I would prefer if this info did not live on a web based platform. Could we put a file on the regional server? Ttenbergen 19:16, 2019 March 9 (CST)
STB Cardiac Care patients	Can you confirm new facts now that we are eliminating Registry Patient Type. (obviously this is a pretty old question...)
STB E5	Is that exception about radiology still true? Ttenbergen 21:03, 2018 November 24 (CST)

STB MICU Collection Guide	With the new instructions for Contacting Quality Officer and Manager for VAPs and CLIs, can we discontinue that sheet? We should not be retaining patient info once we are done dealing with it. Ttenbergen 10:26, 2017 September 18 (CDT) Basil Evan , QI officer, is asking that perhaps a worksheet be submitted to him regarding which criteria were met for either VAP for CLI when collector make determination from chart. Perhaps we could make a checklist in TMP instead in regards to which criteria are met for these two special projects instead of paper worksheets that are different at each collection site? Suggestions? --Trish Ostryzniuk 17:14, 2018 November 19 (CST) added to tmp was abandoned. Trish Ostryzniuk 18:46, 2019 February 4 (CST) Emailed Trish "What do you mean by was abandoned, the question or the project or the paperwork?" Ttenbergen 22:29, 2019 February 5 (CST)

Severe Sepsis	I don't think this was ever implemented, can't find any evidence of it. Do we need it? Ttenbergen 11:04, 2018 September 25 (CDT)
Severe sepsis	_q What is the definition of "organ failure" as it pertains to severe sepsis? For example, is an acute rise in Cr (AKI) enough to meet the definition or does the patient have to be on dialysis? Could we have some criteria for the failure of different organs? --Jvelasco 15:32, 2019 May 21 (CDT) The answer to this should probably go into Template:ICD10 Guideline Sepsis, not into this page. Ttenbergen 12:51, 2019 June 4 (CDT)
Severity of illness	What are the details? Is this average as in description or mean as in definition?
Sex field	If EPR stores current, and a lot of our data comes only from EPR or chart, then for any patients where we don't have a previous, recognizable encounter, we may not be storing their sex assigned at birth even now. Is this true? If so, do we want to change how we treat this field as a result?

TISS Form (TISS28)
TISS at 2300 Hours
TISS28 Form Scanning	Put the queries in a drop down list or accessible through a button in TISS.mdb, similar to way queries are set up in CFE. Trish Ostryzniuk 11:21, 2019 February 7 (CST) If a frozen version is kept available during TISS scanning anyways then there is no reason to not do these checks in CFE, is there? Or rather, collectors sending would not be the reason. Pagasa, let's talk about this. Maybe we can make this more convenient for you. Or write down the actual reason why it can't be done. Ttenbergen 00:34, 2017 November 12 (CST) Discussed this with Pagasa. It would mean doing scanning during send time, and likely doing all fixes during pull time, so all checks could actually be done form CFE. Discussed also w Pagasaa that we would delete the error checks from TISS so there is no duplicates getting out of sync

Temporary page to list dxs documented as requiring treatment to be coded	Tina -- to deal with these, let's make a template and put it in all the ICD10 pages that link to the list right below here. That template to say: This is an entity which you SHOULD code even if it is not being treated. I have made Template:ICD10 Guideline code even if not treated; should it be applied to the new codes or only those old pages? We need to decide were to put that info; adding it to old pages is probably not the right place. ICD10 collection might be it - will people look there? Emailed Trish about this.

Ttenbergen 17:06, 2016 May 25 (CDT) deferring the question to after when Julie has done the new multiple encounter linking with Dispo. Ttenbergen 15:58, 2016 June 27 (CDT) with transfer tracker gone, what will be the official instructions for this? Ttenbergen 16:36, 2017 June 21 (CDT)
Transfer-for Organ Transplantation	Do we use this in a specific report?

Julie, do you use this? Do we need to do anything about this DX? A counterpart does not exist in ICD10. Ttenbergen 19:49, 2018 November 27 (CST)
Transition to Database Server	Julie, can you confirm that SAS would be able to connect to an MS SQL Server via ODBC? Ttenbergen 22:02, 2018 March 14 (CDT) You were going to follow up with the new CHI person to make sure they are aware.
Transitional Care	Is this part of any reports? Ttenbergen 10:03, 2017 November 9 (CST) I recently had a patient discharged to Misericordia Transitional Care Unit. Should we be adding this as an option to our dispo field? The only other options were Winnipeg PCH or Institution NOS.Mlagadi 10:41, 2019 May 2 (CDT) Flagging for Julie, since what we should collect should really be driven by what people want ask. Julie, if you prefer pls flag for the task meeting by replacing the first line of the discussion with DiscussTask. I had a discharge to Misercordia Hospital yesterday, and the notes indicated that it was a “transitional care unit”. My only options from the Dispo drop down would be “Institution, NOS”, or “Winnipeg PCH”. I usually put PCH for all of my transfers to Misericordia, but I’m not sure this is the most accurate in this situation. The patient did not have a paneling code, nor was paneling ever mentioned. --Michelle - May 2.19

Validation against Patient Registry Data	This page was started long ago to keep track of our attempt to get access to the registry. I think it would be good to re-convene on it so we have a central point where past efforts and current efforts can be tracked. That would also make it easier to take it to task or steering and have consistent info. Do you have a log of this somewhere? We can rename it if you want.

Ward admission log forms	I think you really mean the EPR in general. We should probably review that page and the local ones since we use it rather more specifically now than when we first started. Actually, what we probably want is a page for EMR Web Reports. Or do we need specific pages for specific reports that we use, so we can link to them? Ttenbergen 16:11, 2019 May 17 (CDT)
