Hello,

I have created our own CPOE form that allows the clinician to assess 6 problems per page. I have a pop up showing when the clinician has chosen the same problem more than once ("* You have selected a problem more than once for evaluation."+hret+hret+"* Remove the duplicate problem before addressing the next diagnosis!")

I would like to remove the problem from the drop down so the clinician does not have the opportunity to pick the same problem 2 times. Following is the code I am using for the drop down. Does anyone have any ideas?

Thanks in advance,

Carolyn

{
!fn fnProbDropdown(strList)
{
local strProblemList
local strNewProblemlist
local nStart
local strBuf
local strFormattedList = ""

strProblemList = getfield(strList, "|", "")

for i = 1, i <= size(strProblemList), i = i + 1 do
strProblemList[i] = getfield(strProblemList[i], "^", "")
strFormattedList = strFormattedList + fnConvertProblemTypeToString(strProblemList[i][1], FALSE)
strBuf = strProblemList[i][2]
strBuf = ReplaceStr(strBuf, ",", "\,")+" "+"("+strProblemList[i][3]+")"+" " +"("+strProblemList[i][8]+")"
strFormattedList = strFormattedList + strBuf + ","
endfor

if (i > 1) then
strFormattedList = remove(strFormattedList, size(strFormattedList))
endif

return strFormattedList
}
}

Try this (untested, but should work):

Define and create a global variable to hold the already selected problems.

{!

//Replace the DOCUMENT.XXX with the actual variable names of the problem drop down fields.

gSelectedProblems = str(DOCUMENT.PROB1,DOCUMENT.PROB2,...)

}

{! gSelectedProblems}

Update your function calls to:

fnProbDropdown(PROB_AFTER("delimited"),gSelectedProblems)

Change the function definition to:

{! fn fnProbDropdown(strList,strUsedProbs)

{

local strProblemList
local strNewProblemlist
local nStart
local strBuf
local strFormattedList = “”

strProblemList = getfield(strList, “|”, “”)

for i = 1, i <= size(strProblemList), i = i + 1 do
strProblemList[i] = getfield(strProblemList[i], “^”, “”)
strFormattedList = strFormattedList + fnConvertProblemTypeToString(strProblemList[i][1], FALSE)
strBuf = strProblemList[i][2]
strBuf = ReplaceStr(strBuf, “,”, “\,”)+” “+”(“+strProblemList[i][3]+”)”+” ” +”(“+strProblemList[i][8]+”)”

if match(strUsedProbs,strBuf) > 0 then

continue
else ""
endif

strFormattedList = strFormattedList + strBuf + “,”
endfor

if (i > 1) then
strFormattedList = remove(strFormattedList, size(strFormattedList))
endif

return strFormattedList

}
}

That worked Lee. Thank you!

I needed to edit this because it works after the visit is put on hold and when it is taken off of hold, the assessed problem is not in the list.
