When your physicians place central lines in the groin, do you use them to trend CVP readings. We currently start monitoring the CVP while in the groin under the assumption that some data is better than none, with the idea in mind that it may be lower than what would be read if the CVC was placed in the chest of neck

CAMC currently reports mortality 2 ways, a raw rate and a scrubbed rate. The rates are gathered from ICD-9 codes for severe sepsis and septic shock. The raw rate includes all patients seen with these 2 ICD-9 codes at CAMC. The scrubbed rate excludes all transfers from outlying facilities, and patients with palliative/comfort care orders within 24 hours of admission.

I have not been able to obtain a list of nationally accepted exclusions for mortality from sepsis.
Can anyone provide information if there is a nationally accepted list of exclusion criteria for sepsis mortality (e.g. Palliative care within 6 hours of admission, Burn patients, etc)?
Thank you,
