My patient was discharged after emergency surgery, then came back with a suspected complication and had an emergency scan – is this eligible?
Answer Yes – with two prerequisites.
When does the deterioration end?
For a NEWS score of 7 or more
Answer When the NEWS score drops to 5 or less AFTER some form of treatment has been initiated.
If the patient gets an emergency scan after a score of 7 was triggered, does this start a second deterioration event?
For a NEWS score of 7 or more
Answer No. If the NEWS score has not fallen to 5 or less yet, the emergency scan is part of the same event.
CCOT gave an opinion on a patient which said current management was sufficient and should be continued. Is this still a deterioration episode?
For ITU/CCOT
Answer Yes. It starts from whatever action prompts involving the CCOT, and ends at the time of the CCOT member’s note.
If a patient’s emergency scan shows that the queried complication is not found, what is the end time of the deterioration event?
For an unplanned scan
Answer The episode ends at the time that the verified scan report is published.
How do I enter a second deterioration event for the same patient in the spreadsheet?
Answer Just the same way as you would enter it for a new patient.
What is the difference between the full-time and part-time courses?
Answer The courses share learning outcome and curriculum, but the delivery is different in terms of mode and pace. The full-time course is completed in one year (October to September), whereas the part time takes place over two years (October Year 1 to September Year 2). The course materials also present the course content differently, as online learners receive pre-recorded lectures, interactive online activities and a desk-based research project, whereas full-time students receive only face-to-face teaching and usually experience a lab-based project.
