501 Quiz Flashcards
Do reports generally contain multiple styles?
Reports are made out of print groups generally print groups will be one style within one reports
What are the different styles of reports?
Plaintext, Rich text, and Native HTML
Do reports appear in hyperspace only?
No reports can appear in hyperspace but some reports are sent directly to a printer typically because of some action taken in epic i.e., when a doctor signs in order for a class III visit prescription the report will typically print out this is an example of server-side printing
What kind of reports can be used with server-side printing?
Only only rich text and plaintext reports can be used with server side printing
What is print group style determine?
Print group style determines whether the print group is plain text rich text or native HTML. Depending on which print group type i.e. flowsheet results result reports that you specify the style might be defaulted.
Print group type: what does this determined?
Determines what kind of data your print group will access for example flowsheets results, notes, lab result reports might read lab results but also reports.
What happens if you press shift plus F7 in your print group record before you specify the code to execute?
A different code to execute would have appeared by default, and it would not have allowed the print group to appear in hyperspace
What does the code to execute do? d lab^CVSUMRPT (“”, “”,”CVlipid.ico”,2,””)
The Code to Execute field uses a Cache code. The “d” at the beginning means “do”.
The “lab” is the subroutine, while the portion that reads CVSUMRPT is the name of a Cache routine that retrieves and displays patient data.
The parentheses contain parameters that allow you to customize the display without changing the code.
Print Group Type
This field determines what data your print group will access. Common options include: Flowsheet (to display values filed to review flowsheets), Results (to display results from labs), Notes (to display notes written on the patient), and Lab Result Report (to display not only results of labs, but also reports).
Style
This field determines whether the print group is plain text, Rich Text, or Native HTML. Depending upon which print group type you specify, the style might default in.
Code to Execute
Generally, you can find relevant code to execute by looking at similar print groups.
In the Data Handbook, you can search for print groups that contain particular pieces of code. For example, you can search for CVSUMRPT.
Parameters are:
These are options you can tweak without writing new code.
The ‘TITLE” field in a PG is CASE SENSITIVE (T/F)
True
Date/Time Width - PG
Specify what percentage of the entire screen you would like the Date/Time column to occupy. The actual width of this column will fluctuate based upon how wide your screen in Hyperspace is set. Epic recommends 15 percent.
What does Component Based? mean in a PG configuration ?
If you enter Yes in this field, you will be unable to access the Show narrative, Show impression, Maximum Lines, Group Procedures, Foreground Color if Empty, Background Color if Empty, and Procedure Group fields.
The components are entered in the Filter Settings section (next screen).
If you enter No, you will be unable to access the Collapsed Component View, Component Common Name, and Component Column Header fields.
What does Allow Links? mean in PG Configuration? what is the Default setting?
If you enter Yes, users can access detailed order or result reports via hyperlinks in the print group. The default setting is No.
Hide Print Group if Empty?
What does “Hide Print Group if Empty?” do?
Enter Yes if this print group should not appear in Hyperspace if there are no relevant results. Enter No if this print group should appear in Hyperspace even if there are no relevant results.
Filter Settings screen _ what does it do? Give an example
On this screen you can determine:
- from how far back in a patient’s record the print group looks for data,
- specify at which stage of resulting the data will populate the print group,
- and list the components your clinicians would like to see in this print group
The physicians have told you they’d like to be able to see results from the last 5 years (1825 days or 43,800 hours). They would, of course, like to see the final results, but also preliminary and edited results.
Finally, they would like to see results for a TSH.
They would like abbreviations so as not to clutter up their report.
See pg 2-22 n the companion.
What is the difference between a SMARTLINK & a SMARTPHRASE?
both are invoked with a period and a phrase name. However, they are stored in two different masterfiles and each has special nuances to their configuration.
SMARTLINKS: display information in a note or a letter (most commonly patient data but they can also display user or even department data)
What are some ways end users can use SmartLinks in SmartTool enabled boxes?
Automatically when a SmartLink is a component of a SmartText or SmartPhrase
• By typing a period and then the name of the SmartLink (for example: .name and .sex)
• By searching in the SmartLink/Phrase Butler
To open the SmartLink/Phrase Butler, either type “.?” or
What is a secret way to open the smartphrase butler?
type “.?”
What are the 3 categories of SMartLinks
- SmartLinks that have no parameters
- NAME, .AGE, .TODAYSDATE (cannot be changed)
- SmartLinks that have user level parameters
SmartLink[parameter1,parameter2, etc. Many result based SmartLinks have user level parameters. User parameters reduce the number of SmartLinks that you need to maintain. For example, the “brieflab” SmartLink can be used to pull in any result component (like glucose) or combination of components (like WBC, RBC, and platelets). - SmartLinks that have system parameters:
system parameters are set by the project team in the actual SmartLink record. They establish how individual SmartLinks function in Hyperspace
How can you find out a BASE Name for a results component?
check the ORD in Record Viewer, go to to the test result you are looking for, i.e., hemocrit, then click that hyperlink to take you to the record
Item 45 will give you the base name for that component.
User Level Parameters - LabsWhat is the difference btwn GETLABS and Lastlabs
GETLABS will give you all lab results for visit on the day of the current visit and previous visits. it will accept 2 parameters, separtated byt commas = the lookback time and the format of the output
so, it would look like .getlabs[6m,1 – 1 would = the abbreviated display, etc.
User Level Parameters - What are REVFS?
Review Flowsheet Smartlinks
Userweb smartlink resources: Where can you view a list of all Epic SmartLinks? Is there any additional documentation on what options you have to modify the display?
This information is available on the UserWeb in the Epic Standard SmartLinks file. Go to UserWeb > Galaxy and search for SmartLink. The latest version of the file (it’s an Excel spreadsheet) will appear as a Recommended Link. If you would like the spreadsheet from an earlier version, change the version in the drop-down list to the left of the Search box at the top of the screen.
Smart Phrases: How do users summon them?
Phrase: Type a dot and then completion match on phrase name OR use Butler
TEXT: use the Insert Smart Text field on the toolbar
Often DEFAULTED: SMART TEXT can be part of a smartSET OR a SText can be defaulted into a disharge summary note type.
Smart TEXT are built by:
Builders (system phrases)
SMART Phrases are built by:
Endusers (user phrases)
Who maintains SmartTEXT?
SmartText are usually maintained by an appointed group of administrators and reviewers responsible for the content.
User SmartPhrases are not formally reviewed, whereas system phrases might be reviewed.
Naming conventions for SmartPhrases?
Develop and consistently use a naming convention. For example:
• Prefix for “what is it” (instructions, note, etc.)
• Descriptor for the issue (DM, arthritis, etc.)
• End modifier as needed (initial visit, follow-up, male, female, etc.)
Does editing a smartlink from a copied system phrase in a smartphrase affect it in the rest of the system?
Note that you can make changes to this template which will only be
reflected in the SmartPhrase you’re working in. For example, if you wanted
to change the BRIEFLAB SmartLink to display the last 2 Hemoglobin A1C
results, you could do so without affecting the underlying SmartText you
used as a guide for this Phrase.
What does the color yellow background mean in a smartlist?
What does a dark blue highlighted choice mean?
yellow background = Refreshable
drk blue = default choice
What is mutually exclusive mean?
Set up so users can only make a logical choice. Make sure you use the group key to select your groups.
Where would you go to find out how to name your smartlists?
Consult the Style guide and naming and number convention suggestions on User weB
What does the Used by tab tell yo in the the smartlist editor?
what other smart tools will use that smartlist
