Documentation Challenges in Critical Care / ICU

• Multi-organ system documentation with rapidly changing clinical status
• Tracking ventilator settings, drips, and sedation scales across shifts
• Documenting critical care time for billing compliance
• Coordinating family meetings and goals-of-care discussions
• Maintaining accurate problem-severity classifications as patients evolve

Note Types for Critical Care / ICU

• ICU Progress Notes

  Organ-system-based notes with problem-severity classification and daily data review

• ICU Admission Notes

  Detailed admission documentation with resuscitation events and initial stabilization

• Consultation Notes

  Critical care consultation responses with acuity assessment and recommendations

• Daily Intensivist Checklist

  Structured checklist covering DVT prophylaxis, lines, sedation holidays, and liberation readiness

Key Features for Critical Care / ICU

• Organ-System Organization

  Notes structured by organ system with severity classification for each problem

• Ventilator Documentation

  Captures vent mode, settings, ABG correlation, and weaning parameters

• Critical Care Time

  Automatically tracks and documents critical care time for billing

• Device & Line Tracking

  Documents central lines, drains, tubes with day counts and removal criteria

• Sedation & Analgesia

  RASS, CAM-ICU, and pain scale documentation integrated into workflow

Stats

• 3 hrs - Saved Per Shift
• 2 min - ICU Note Time
• 99% - Billing Compliance
• 40% - Less Charting Time

Testimonial

ICU notes are the most complex in medicine. Scribeable organizes everything by organ system with severity grading and pulls in vent settings and drip rates. My notes are more thorough and take half the time.
