      Thank you for your inquiry regarding CMS832v2, Hospital Harm – Acute Kidney Injury. Specific to the 4 risk factor variables identified in your inquiry (FirstBodyTemperature; FirstHeartRate; FirstRespiratoryRate; FirstSystolicBloodPressure), in the current 2025 measure specification (CMS832v2) readings must be captured using decimals (numeric value) rather than quantities (numeric values with units). The measure developer will review improving the capturing of vital sign data in a future Annual Update.

    • CMS0832v2
    • EH/CAH eCQMs - Eligible Hospitals/Critical Access Hospitals

      This eCQM has 4 risk variables, results for which have to be returned as Decimals. Thi sis different from how these are being handled in Hybrid Measures where they are being returned as a physical quantity with specific units specified. 

      In the Cypress Test files for this CMS832 eCQM, I could find one example where Heart Rate (see attached xml file) QDM is provided as follows.  The value is provided as an INT without any units specified. 

      Is this the correct and expected format for inclusion of the value in for these 4 Risk Variables? or should the valid format be something like the following - 

      <value xsi:type="PQ" value="80" unit = "{Beats}/min"/>
