Hi CariAnn, We include all patients hospital-wide, by patient, not by patient days; resuscitation status is not taken into account. Thank you for the inquiry; it will be interesting to review the responses.

I am curious if you count each patient chart or if you count by patient days? I currently only audit the critical care patients, however I am looking to expand to house wide. Any input would be appreciated- Thanks, CariAnn ------------------------------------------------------------------------ ------------------------------------------- CONFIDENTIAL & PRIVILEGED COMMUNICATION This email and any files transmitted with it are confidential, may contain privileged or copyright information, and are intended solely for the use of the intended recipient.
