MRSA Guidelines

MRSA reporting is part of Critical Care Vital Signs Monitoring.

Colonization

Combined code the following as a Comorbid Diagnosis (not as an Admit Diagnosis.

	Some days it feels like half of our admissions have MRSA. Since this is so frequently used, is there any way that we could simplify coding this? Currently, we have to enter three separate comorbid codes, and type recognition isn't very useful, as other codes come up first when you start typing in the first letters.

Infection

Combined code the following

the appropriate code from one of the following

Infection requiring pathogen codes:

Colonized vs local infection

If MRSA drawn from an abscess or deep in wound and you think it is causing the "local" infection, else code colonization.

Data Use

Julie reported in 2013 that in the past 2 years there were 2 requests for data related to these variables. It was decided that Allan with contact Dr. Embil and see if we can obtain this data from Infection Control. If so, we could import it into the database, and have our data collectors cease obtaining it.
