I just returned from
a forms committee meeting seeking approval of our revised PICC insertion form
which has on it that we obtained verbal consent, used Xylocaine, and an
order for CXR, how to draw blood, (among other things) which we place
in the physician order section of the chart and a second form that describes the
procedure, where the PICC is inserted,confirmation of placement, and dsg. change
on it etc. This form is placed in the progress note section of the chart. The
Committee did not approve these forms and would like me to consolidate these 2
forms into one form, due to duplication of information . Before I tackle this
new project I thought I would ask what the rest of you are using. Perhaps one of
you would be willing to share your forms. They also want to have a written
consent form, which I have wondered about from the beginning. Appreciate
any help.
