Percent of adult patients aged 18 years and older with an Internal Jugular central venous catheter placed in the emergency department (ED) under ultrasound guidance.
The number per 1,000 livebirths of <1500g infants delivered at hospitals not appropriate for that size infant.
This is a hospital level performance score reported as the percent of infants with Unexpected Newborn Complications among full term newborns with no preexisting conditions, typically calculated per year.
Accidental punctures or lacerations (secondary diagnosis) per 1,000 discharges for patients ages 18 years and older who have undergone an abdominopelvic procedure; in which a second abdominopelvic procedure follows one or more days after an index abdominopelvic procedure. Excludes cases with accidental puncture or laceration as a principal diagnosis, cases with accidental puncture or laceration as a secondary diagnosis that is present on admission, and obstetric cases.
Percentage of Surgical patients greater than 18 years of age with urinary catheter removed on Postoperative Day 1 or Postoperative Day 2 with day of surgery being day zero.
This is a clinical performance measure which assesses whether women age 65+ were provided appropriate treatment for urinary incontinence (UI). This measure has three rates:
(A) Assessment for UI: Percentage of female patients aged 65 years and older who were assessed for the presence or absence of urinary incontinence within 12 months.
(B) Characterization of UI: Percentage of female patients aged 65 years and older with a diagnosis of urinary incontinence whose urinary incontinence was characterized at least once within 12 months
Percentage of female patients aged 65 years and older with a diagnosis of urinary incontinence whose urinary incontinence was characterized at least once within 12 months
Percentage of female patients aged 65 years and older with a diagnosis of urinary incontinence with a documented plan of care for urinary incontinence at least once within 12 months
Admissions with a principal diagnosis of urinary tract infection per 100,000 population, ages 18 years and older. Excludes kidney or urinary tract disorder admissions, other indications of immunocompromised state admissions, obstetric admissions, and transfers from other institutions.
[NOTE: The software provides the rate per population. However, common practice reports the measure as per 100,000 population. The user must multiply the rate obtained from the software by 100,000 to report admissions per 100,000 population.]
