Cardiac arrests may having the cooling protocol applied. See [[Cardiac Arrest Cooling Protocol]] for more information. If a patient is '''actively cooled for therapeutic reasons''', use the most recent temp just '''prior  to''' start of cooling.
* If no temp is available before cooling initiated, then use a temp at '''4 hours after''' cooling stopped.
=== Arrived from OR cold ===
If a patient is arriving from the OR cold, use the actual worst temperature since this low temp could also be a negative result of "having been open" for a long time.

Therapeutic Cooling

Cardiac arrests may having the cooling protocol applied. See Cardiac Arrest Cooling Protocol for more information. If a patient is actively cooled for therapeutic reasons, use the most recent temp just prior to start of cooling.

  • If no temp is available before cooling initiated, then use a temp at 4 hours after cooling stopped.

Arrived from OR cold

If a patient is arriving from the OR cold, use the actual worst temperature since this low temp could also be a negative result of "having been open" for a long time.

APACHE Score

This value is used to generate the APACHE Score.

Collecting Apache physiological variables

There are some specific rules to follow in choosing which one of several lab results to collect.

See APACHE physiological variable collection for details.

Cross Chcks

Rules described in APACHE_physiological_variable_collection#Exceptionally_high_or_low_values are implemented by Check APACHE physiological variable high low.
