Topic starter

I am trying to brainstorm some ideas on medication administration flowsheet. I have a physician that is requesting to have a flowsheet where she can monitor her med admin and % of improvement on the patient. I am using the below OBS to record but it is not what I am really looking for. Does anyone have suggestions? She would also prefer a running sentance instead of all the columns that the flowsheet has.

Any ideas greatly appreciated!!!

For recording, obs terms will be the easiest route. If you are wanting to avoid using a ton of obs terms or unsure of what obs terms are used there are a few solutions.

For unused obs terms list run this SQL script:

/** FINDS ALL UNUSED OBSTERMS, APPROX (20 SEC TO RUN)**/ SELECT t1.NAME, t1.DESCRIPTION, t1.HDID, t1.UNIT, t1.OBSTYPE FROM OBSHEAD t1 LEFT JOIN OBS t2 ON t2.HDID = t1.HDID WHERE t2.HDID IS NULL ORDER BY t1.NAME

For ways to avoid a ton of obs terms, is you could use an array of arrays.

Creation of the Array:
local example = array(array("Descrip","Result"),array("Descrip","Result"))

Getting Array:
local example = OBSANY("ARRAYOBS")

Pushing into the array: insert( Variable, Position, Value ) (Note: position starts at 1)
insert( example, 3, array("Descrip","Result") )

Parsing Array:
for i = 1, i <= size(example), i = i + 1 do
local description = example[i][1]
local value = example[i][2]
/* Do stuff with varibles */
endfor

Setting Array:
OBSNOW("ARRAYOBS", example)
