Dear Dr. Townsend, Do you mean excluded?
Thank you for all the work you have done. Sincerely, Emily C. McKinney (Swiss), BSN, RN Sepsis Coordinator Reichert Health Building Suite 6003 St. Joseph Mercy Health System 5333 McAuley Drive, Suite 6003 tel: 734-712-2319 | cell:734-395-2859 email: [email protected] www.stjoeshealth.org Facebook | Twitter -----Original Message----- From: Sepsisgroups [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Townsend, Sean, M.D. Sent: Friday, February 03, 2017 2:14 AM To: Jeanie Bollinger Cc: [email protected] Subject: [External] Re: [Sepsis Groups] [**External**] Core measure: VS in the OR I think vitals from the OR should be excepted. I'll work on that. On Feb 2, 2017, at 7:47 AM, Jeanie Bollinger <[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>> wrote: WARNING: This email originated outside of the Sutter Health email system! DO NOT CLICK links if the sender is unknown and never provide your User ID or Password. We have received some fall outs of the Sepsis Measure due to vital signs in the OR being used for time zero. I sent this to QNet and below is the response that I received: Unless there is physician documentation that the low BP or MAP is due to the medications or other condition within the OR, the BP's may be used to meet criteria. The anesthesiologist or CRNA does not document a narrative note as to “why” the BP dropped. Is this a reasonable expectation? The patient is in the OR for source control and is being monitored constantly. Is there consideration for excluding these patients from the measure or at least excluding vital signs recorded in the OR?
