Allergen Search
The "Add Allergen" search bar allows a user to find an allergen to add to the selected patient's chart. When a user begins typing in the search box, a list of results is displayed. Any allergens listed with a black "?" are non-codified and will be excluded from interaction checks.
Favorites List Search
If a user selects the drop-down to the right of the search box, a list of allergens will be displayed. The system generates this list based on allergens that are used most frequently.
Allergen List Summary
The Allergen List Summary displays the patient's active list of allergens, along with the symptoms, alerts, and verification status. Each allergen is selectable in case any updates are needed.
Allergen Symptoms Window
The Allergen Symptoms window is available when adding a new allergen or when an existing allergen is selected from the Allergen Summary. This window allows the user to access and update all symptoms and/or severity for each allergen. Removing an allergen is also in this window.
The symptoms window will display the following elements:
- Symptom: #1-5
- Comment: Free Text field
- Severity: Mild, Moderate Severe
- Verify: Unconfirmed, Confirmed, Refuted, Entered-in-error
- Remove Allergen: Checkbox
- Always display window on a new allergen: Checkbox
Allergen List History
Nearly all the features and functionality that apply to the 'Allergy List Summary' window also apply to the history. The major difference is that the history will display all allergies, including those that have been removed.
