9. Weak vs. strong documentation

Weak — does not survive

Why it fails

Strong — defensible

“IV antibiotic given. Site intact.”

No route/line detail, no blood return, no dressing/flush, no response — the covered procedure is under-documented.

The PICC model note in §3: the medication and central route, blood return, the site and dated dressing, the flush, and the reason licensed administration was required.

“JP drain to bulb suction.”

No output volume/character, no site, no trend.

“JP drain patent with serosanguineous output of decreasing volume (vs prior), site clean, bulb compressed to suction, secured.”

“IV site red.”

No action, no notification, no continuation plan.

The line-complication model note in §4: the site findings, the infusion held and the line discontinued, the site care, SBAR, and the new-access/culture orders.
