Chest X-rays
PA view of the chest

Chest X-rays
The loss of the left
hemidiaphragm
("silhouette sign") and
preservation of the left
heart border, indicates
involvement of the left
lower lobe and
sparing of the lingula
of the left upper lobe.

PSI Inquiries
SAGE determines PSI
Given
new observations,
SAGE then
determines
PSI score.
Class: IV
Score: 98
Mortality: 9.5%

Choice is made to treat as
Non-ICU inpatient.

Logic
Now two actions
to be taken:
1) JCAHO
measures,
2) Admission
orders.
CMS & JCAHO Specific Measures
Clinicians are asked these questions since data not
available from EMR:
Pneumococcal vaccination up to date?
Influenza vaccination up to date?
At risk for pseudomonas?
Transferred from outside?
Previous antibiotics for CAP prior to arrival?
Blood cultures obtained prior to arrival?
Comfort measures only?
