The rate of hypoglycemic events following the administration of an anti-diabetic agent
The measure estimates a hospital-level 30-day risk-standardized mortality rate (RSMR), defined as death from any cause within 30 days after the index admission date, for patients discharged from the hospital with either a principal discharge diagnosis of COPD or a principal discharge diagnosis of respiratory failure with a secondary discharge diagnosis of acute exacerbation of COPD.
The measure estimates a hospital-level 30-day risk-standardized mortality rate (RSMR). Mortality is defined as death for any cause within 30 days after the date of admission for the index admission, discharged from the hospital with a principal discharge diagnosis of pneumonia, including aspiration pneumonia or a principal discharge diagnosis of sepsis (not severe sepsis) with a secondary diagnosis of pneumonia (including aspiration pneumonia) coded as present on admission (POA).
This measure assesses the proportion of inpatient hospital encounters where patients ages 18 years of age or older have been administered an opioid medication, subsequently suffer the harm of an opioid-related adverse event, and are administered an opioid antagonist (naloxone) within 12 hours. This measure excludes opioid antagonist (naloxone) administration occurring in the operating room setting.
The measure estimates a hospital-level 30-day risk-standardized mortality rate (RSMR), defined as death from any cause within 30 days after the index admission date for patients who are between the ages of 50 and 94.
Iatrogenic pneumothorax cases (secondary diagnosis) per 1,000 surgical or medical discharges for patients ages 17 years and younger. Excludes normal newborns; neonates with a birth weight less than 500 grams; cases with chest trauma, pleural effusion, thoracic surgery, lung or pleural biopsy, diaphragmatic surgery repair or cardiac surgery; cases with a principal diagnosis of iatrogenic pneumothorax; cases with a secondary diagnosis of iatrogenic pneumothorax present on admission; and obstetric cases.
Iatrogenic pneumothorax cases (secondary diagnosis) per 1,000 surgical and medical discharges for patients ages 18 years and older. Excludes cases with chest trauma, pleural effusion, thoracic surgery, lung or pleural biopsy, diaphragmatic repair, or cardiac procedures; cases with a principal diagnosis of iatrogenic pneumothorax; cases with a secondary diagnosis of iatrogenic pneumothorax present on admission; and obstetric cases.
The inappropriate diagnosis of CAP in hospitalized medical patients (or “Inappropriate Diagnosis of CAP”) measure is a process measure that evaluates the annual proportion of hospitalized adult medical patients treated for CAP who do not meet diagnostic criteria for pneumonia (thus are inappropriately diagnosed and treated).
The inappropriate diagnosis of UTI in hospitalized medical patients (or “Inappropriate Diagnosis of UTI”) measure is a process measure that evaluates the annual proportion of hospitalized adult medical patients treated for UTI who do not meet diagnostic criteria for UTI (thus are inappropriately diagnosed and overtreated).
Percentage of episodes with an International Normalized Ratio (INR) test performed three to seven days after a newly started interacting anti-infective medication for individuals receiving warfarin
