Proportion of ischemic stroke patients age 18 years or older for whom an initial NIHSS score is performed prior to any acute recanalization therapy (i.e., intra-venous (IV) thrombolytic (t-PA) therapy, or intra-arterial (IA) thrombolytic (t-PA) therapy, or mechanical endovascular reperfusion (MER) therapy) in patients undergoing recanalization therapy and documented in the medical record, or documented within 12 hours of arrival at the hospital emergency department in patients who do not undergo recanalization therapy.
Proportion of SAH and ICH stroke patients age 18 years or older for whom a severity measurement (i.e., Hunt and Hess Scale for SAH patients or ICH Score for ICH patients) is performed prior to surgical intervention (e.g., clipping, coiling, or any surgical intervention) in patients undergoing surgical intervention and documented in the medical record; OR, documented within 6 hours of arrival at the hospital emergency department in patients who do not undergo surgical intervention.

This is the sixth measure in a set of measures developed for Joint Commission Comprehensive Stroke Certification. Although it is not required that these measures are reported in conjunction with each other, The Joint Commission develops measures in sets in order to provide as comprehensive a view of quality for a particular clinical topic as possible.
Percentage of all patient months for adult patients (> = 18years old) whose delivered dose of hemodialysis (calculated from the last measurement of the month using the UKM or Daugirdas II formula) was spKt/V >= 1.2.
Percentage of all patient months for adult patients (>= 18 years old) whose delivered peritoneal dialysis dose was a weekly Kt/Vurea >= 1.7 (dialytic + residual).
The percentage of patients 18-75 years of age with a serious mental illness and diabetes (type 1 and type 2) whose most recent blood pressure (BP) reading during the measurement year is <140/90 mm Hg.
Note: This measure is adapted from an existing health plan measure used in a variety of reporting programs for the general population (NQF #0061: Comprehensive Diabetes Care: Blood Pressure Control <140/90 mm Hg) which is endorsed by NQF and is stewarded by NCQA.
The percentage of patients 18-75 years of age with a serious mental illness and diabetes (type 1 and type 2) who had an eye exam during the measurement year.
Note: This measure is adapted from an existing health plan measure used in a variety of reporting programs for the general population (NQF #0055: Comprehensive Diabetes Care: Eye Exam). This measure is endorsed by NQF and is stewarded by NCQA.
The percentage of patients 18-75 years of age with a serious mental and diabetes (type 1 and type 2) whose most recent HbA1c level during the measurement year is <8.0%.
Note: This measure is adapted from an existing health plan measure used in a variety of reporting programs for the general population (NQF #0575: Comprehensive Diabetes Care: Hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) Control <8.0). This measure is endorsed by NQF and is currently stewarded by NCQA.
