Encounter in erroneously numerator : no hospital harm
For future consideration of exclusions. Our hospital will sometimes place sickle cell patients on low dose narcan drips (planned) to mitigate severe pruritis and nausea while on narcotics for vaso-occlusive crisis. This is not an adverse event or hospital harm event as it is a planned therapy for the patient but it is showing in the numerator for this measure Perhaps there would be a way to exclude this scenario in the future.
