[pert] Update on PERT status

[Christopher T. Tanski]

Hello-

Several months ago, I circulated the draft policy and procedure and asked for any last inputs. We made some minor changes and then, once we had agreement amongst ourselves, began the process of getting input from stakeholder groups. I went through and presented the policy and procedure to six different committees: medicine shared governance, surgery SG, resuscitation, procedural SG, critical care shared governance, and ICU governance. All reviewed and approved it.

Earlier this month, we had some discussion about activating the PERT only for intermediate and high risk patients. This requires changes to both the policy and procedure, which I wish we could have figured out before I sent it out. Unfortunately, at this point, the policy and procedure need to be resent to all six committees for discussion and approval, again, since they have changed. Given meeting times and summer vacations and so forth, I don't see this process being finished before the end of the summer. I will work to get you the updated policy and procedure for review and then get it to the six different committees to restart the process.

Thanks.

Chris
