I'm having a problem with the data symbol GET_FLOWSHEET_VALUES for which GE doesn't seem to have a solution or an idea of what's going on. I have three custom flowsheet views, one each for Pneumovax, TD, and Flu vaccines, that include all of the various obsterms that have been used at our site for each of these vaccinations. However, when I use (in forms and handouts) the GET_FLOWSHEET_VALUES to pull in the values, I am getting the value for the Albumin lab result. The ALBUMIN obsterm does NOT exist in any of these three flowsheet views. I've checked several times. And this is happening for all patients with an albumin result. I have run a debug on the form in which I'm using this data symbol, and the debug file shows the GET_FLOWSHEET_VALUES pulling in the albumin result.
It's a really weird problem, and I suspect that there must be something weird going on with the obsterm tables. But I can't figure out the problem, and neither can GE.
Has anyone else had this problem?
Thanks for any help you can offer.

What version are you on and what version of the form are you using I know the immunization form is going to be changing soon not sure if it has already?
This client is on 9.5, but they need something in the mean time until they can upgrade to 9.8. I've just hardcoded to skip the albumin result. It's the only lab value that's causing a problem. GE still hasn't been able to answer. And it would be nice to know what's going on, since this function is used for other things besides immunizations.
Thank you.

This is a longshot but have you done a sql query to see if the HDID for the albumin is unique in your obshead table? Maybe something got messed up and the HDID is a duplicate of another obs term? HDID in my database is 2.
select * from ml.obshead where obsname = 'ALBUMIN'
select * from ml.obshead where hdid = whatever the first query returned for HDID
Also, have you exported the clinical kits for the flowsheets and made sure something wasn't screwy in there and the HDID of albumin is really in there?
Good luck,
Thanks for the suggestion. I have not tried that, but will. I'll try the export first.
