Sunrise EMR and PAS Flashcards
If a patient is due for a patch (for example fentanyl), when will it show up on Sunrise EMR and PAS?
Not until the day before it is due.
How are prescription orders for discharge on Sunrise indicated?
They are represented by a thumbs up.
Where can seizure activity during the current admission be found?
Under Flow Charts.
Why is the option of “anti-Xa level” not available on Sunrise?
The calibrators, controls and test program on the analyser used are, however, different depending on which anticoagulant is being tested. The result for an “anti-Xa level” would therefore be inaccurate if the wrong calibrator was used. The lab cannot proceed with anti-Xa testing without knowing which anticoagulant it was meant for to avoid producing an erroneous result,
If a paper pathology request form for an “anti-Xa level” was sent to a pathology lab without specifying the anticoagulant, what would occur?
The laboratory would not proceed with testing until they have clarified it with the requesting clinician.
