VTE-1 and VTE-2, and any other measures that utilize the Comfort Care/Measure value set
In reviewing the orders placed on the day of and day after admission/ICU admission, I noticed that the Inpatient Comfort Care End of Life Order Set was used. If an order is placed for something on this order set (such as pain medication), which is linked to the IP Comfort Care/End of Life Order Set (because the pain med order was selected from the order set), would this suffice to conclude this case as "Comfort Care Intervention" to exclude the case if we were to map the order set code to an appropriate SNOMED Code? Or does there need to be a specific order placed that the patient is admitted for comfort care/end of life care?
