Falls with Injury: Definition Clarification Clarification NDNQI Falls definition Injury Level When the initial fall report is written by the nursing staff, the extent of injury may not yet be known. Hospitals have 24 hours to determine the injury level, e.g., when you are awaiting diagnostic test results or consultation reports. This is a required data element and you should report Falls with Injury through NOVI monthly based on the following guidelines: • None—patient had no injuries (no signs or symptoms) resulting from the fall; if an x-ray, CT scan or other post fall evaluation results in a finding of no injury • Minor—resulted in application of a dressing, ice, cleaning of a wound, limb elevation, topical medication, pain, bruise or abrasion • Moderate—resulted in suturing, application of steri-strips/skin glue, splinting, or muscle/joint strain • Major—resulted in surgery, casting, traction, required consultation for neurological (basilar skull fracture, small subdural hematoma) or internal injury (rib fracture, small liver laceration) or patients with any type of fracture regardless of treatment or patients who have coagulopathy who receive blood products as a result of a fall • Death—the patient died as a result of injuries sustained from the fall (not from physiologic events causing the fall)
