Everyone,

Hi there, I was hoping for some help. I was wondering if someone had any code to change a result based on values to a specific string rather then a numeric. So, when ther result comes in if it is < .09 the value should be Negative/ Non-Immune.

Example

Varicella (VZV)

< or = 0.90 Ouput to new OBS is: Negative/ Non-Immune

0.91 - 1.09 Ouput to new OBS is: Equivocal

> or = 1.10 Ouput to new OBS is: Positive/ Immune

Thanks!

Something like this should work if you are putting the numeric values manually into a obsterm and then are wanting to write the new obsterm with the specific string.

{if obsnow("obstermhere") <= "0.90" then obsnow("newobsterm","Negative/Non-Immune")

else if

(obsnow("obstermhere") >= "0.91" and obsnow("obstermhere") <= "1.09") then obsnow("newobsterm","Equivocal")

else if

obsnow("obstermhere") >= "1.10" then obsnown("obstermhere","Positive/Immune")
else "" endif endif endif}

If the values are coming back from a lab and will already be entered on the flow sheet, you would want to change it to obsprev or obsany:

{if obsany("obstermhere") <= "0.90" then obsnow("newobsterm","Negative/Non-Immune")

else if

(obsany("obstermhere") >= "0.91" and obsany("obstermhere") <= "1.09") then obsnow("newobsterm","Equivocal")

else if

obsany("obstermhere") >= "1.10" then obsnow("obstermhere","Positive/Immune")
else "" endif endif endif}
