| The CCU patient chart has a flow sheet for the nurses to fill out their vital signs and patient assessments. If the patient has had an acute MI, a care map type of flow sheet is used. This has four steps as the patient progresses in their recovery. A second option for nurses’ charting is a CCU flow sheet for all other types of patients other than acute MI. (examples: arrythmias, pre op optimizations, cardiomyopathy, chest pain NYD, etc. ). Occasionally a COR sheet (like those used on the wards) can be continued in CCU and even the Y2 procedure note page has been continued on a rare occasion for a patient who needs some CCU management post angio. | | The ACCU patient chart now only uses the ICU flow sheet. |
| | |
| == Post-Angio patients exclusion ==
| |
| Patients that arrive in CCU for post procedure care post angio only because the pre and post angio area is closed, are not included in our database.
| |
| | |
| == STEMI code for From/To slots ==
| |
| Some heart attack patients are admitted straight to the heart cath lab without being admitted to the. See [[Admit_From_%26_Discharged_To#STEMI_from_home_.28zz.29_to_St_Boniface | STEMI]] for how to admit such patients.
| |
| | |
| == Diagnostic Coding vs Admit-From==
| |
| Primary angiograms are those that go first to the angio room and then to CCU afterwards. In this case the first admit diagnosis should be angiogram, then angioplasty, then stent, then the MI with location subcode and then other items like CHF or TNK if applicable.
| |
| The exception to this rule is when the patient has a cardiac arrest before arriving in CCU or has cardiogenic shock. These will then be coded first and then the primary angio sequence. If you are past the quota for number of admit diagnosis codes, you can use only angioplasty if necessary (take out angiogram and stent if needed).
| |
| | |
| If the patient comes from an ICU (different hospital) do not use the MI as the first diagnosis. Other options could be post infarct angina, unstable angina, chf, cardiogenic shock, etc. The second diagnosis could be the MI.
| |
| | |
| | |
| | |
| ==Pharmacy==
| |
| Nitropatch amount is always one, only the number of days is counted. Observe all infusions in CCU and try to keep track of how many doses and days the patient is on the infusions. The rest of the pharmacy is easy to track on the EPR. Infusion drugs can be neglected to be signed for in the electronic MAR. Infusions commonly used in CCU are all antiarrythmics, all inotropes, some vasopressors and some antihypertensives.

| * Again, is this truly special to the CCU? This should probably be in one of [[:Category:Pharmacy]] instead. Those are a bit of a mess, though, and may not be worth upgrading for now if we are going to change how they are collected soon. [[User:Ttenbergen|Ttenbergen]] 16:36, 1 October 2009 (CDT)

| ==[[TISS]]==
| |
| If the patient is a primary angio, item #91 (what's 91) {{discussion}} should not be marked. However if the patient had a plasty, #96 operative procedure can (can or must?) {{discussion}} be marked. If the angio happens as a complication (after arriving in CCU), then #91 can be marked.
| |
| | |
| If the patient has a temporary pacemaker, make sure one of the Tiss items #15 or 16 is marked for each day the patient has the pacemaker. If the patient goes for a permanent pacemaker, the OR #96 must be marked and then the next day the #15 or 16 should not be marked.
| |
| If the permanent pacemaker is done and then the patient goes to the cardiology ward afterwards and does not return to CCU, #96 is not marked and the code permanent pacemaker is not entered as a complication. The patient is instead transferred to the OR and the profile is completed.

This article contains collection information specific to the Acute Cardiac Care Unit at St Boniface, STB_ACCU.
See also ACCU borrow, STB Cardiac Care patients.
Please make sure you document information at the most general level that is applicable, i.e. don't code something that affects all collection at StB in the program or unit level articles.
See the following for more general information:
Unit admission log book

Collector "base"
Admissions, Discharges and Transfers can be found the EPR.
Location of patient chart components
Most information is on EPR. There still are heart cath reports stored on paper but usually heart caths also are reported on EPR. Echo reports on paper chart.
