| Notes for Abstraction: |
- Select the Preoperative Anemia Screening Date associated with the elective surgical procedure selected for abstraction.Preoperative Transfusion Testing.
- Enter UTD if unable to determine when Preoperative Anemia Screening was done.
- The medical record must be abstracted as documented (taken at “face value”). When the date documented is obviously in error (not a valid date/format) and no other documentation is found that provides this information, the abstractor should select “UTD.”
- Example: Documentation indicates the Preoperative Anemia Screening Date was 03-42-2008. No other documentation in the medical record provides a valid date. Since the Preoperative Anemia Screening Date is outside of the range listed in the Allowable Values for “Day,” it is not a valid date and the abstractor should select “UTD.”
