New Functionality: -
Tracker 6829 &
6924 & 7832 - Attribute a Status to Patient Identifiers, Names, Telecoms
and Patient Test Reports in SCI Store With Full Auditing – To facilitate the implementation of this
functionality, the previous functionality which allowed users to mark patient
identifiers as deleted and the associated audit report screen has been removed.
Two new mechanisms have been added to Store to allow users to search for
patients and display and amend the status of their associated names,
identifiers, telecoms and Test Reports and to display the audit details of
status changes actioned against these items.
1. The ‘Maintenance > Patient
Information Status Update’ menu link loads the new ‘Patient
Information Status Update’ search screen. By selecting patients returned
from searches, the ‘Update Information Status’ screen is loaded.
This screen allows the user to view and update the current status of the items
which can be amended. Three status values are permitted –
‘Active’, ‘Retired’ and ‘Deleted’. Items
which are changed to a status of ‘Deleted’ will no longer be
visible via the Store front end.
If ‘Deleted’ data is utilised as part of the search criteria
on any of the user search screens, no data will be returned. Additionally,
demographic items which have been marked as ‘Deleted’ will not be
taken into account by the patient matching rules.
In the case of ‘Deleted’ test results, if an update is
processed which contains a result identifier which matches a deleted result,
the result will be matched, the new result will be given a status of
‘Active’ and the previous ‘deleted’ result will be
added to the historic results with a status of ‘Deleted’.
2. The ‘Reporting > Patient
Information Status Audit’ menu link loads the new Patient Information
Status Audit report screen. This allows users to search for and display the
audit details for status changes of all categories.
The names and descriptions of the module permissions associated with the
new functionality are as follows: -
·
The
Module permission previously named 'Patient Identifier Removal Audit Report' in
the ‘Reporting and Auditing’ category has been renamed to
‘Patient Information Status Audit Report'. Its associated description has
been changed to ‘Allow access to the Patient Information Status Audit
report page'.
·
The
Module permission previously named 'Patient Identifier Maintenance' in the
‘Store Maintenance’ category has been renamed to ‘Patient
Information Status Maintenance'. Its associated description has been changed to
‘Allows a user to search for a patient and update the status on patient
result reports and certain demographic items’.
Tracker 7251 -
Exceptions Management Manual Match - Criteria selection – The functionality of the Manual
Match exceptions screen for both Document Management and Non Document
Management interfaces has been enhanced. The screen now incorporates checkboxes
which enable the user to include/exclude the default criteria used to populate
patient searches. Where no matches are found and an insert is required, a new
‘Insert Patient from File’ icon has been added to the toolbar to
facilitate an ‘insert’ action.
Where checkboxes are enabled, this will incorporate the associated
search criteria field in the any subsequent search that is run. Where
checkboxes are disabled, the associated search criteria field will retain the
content, but the field will be disabled and excluded from any subsequent search
that is run.
When patients are returned from a search, if a match is desired the
patient row should be selected. This will load a summary ‘Patient
Details’ page where summary details of demographics, addresses and
ID’s for the selected patient are displayed. Match types other than an
‘insert’ can be selected and auctioned from this page.
Tracker 8521 - Allow
searching of CHI as well as local Store from Manual Match page – The functionality of the
Manual Match screen has been enhanced to allow users to manually match against
patients in the CHI database. The main changes are summarised below: -
·
An
‘Available Data Sources’ section has been added to the
‘Manual Match’ screen. If the logged in user account has been
granted permission to access the CHI search provider, CHI will be available for
selection as a data source which can be searched. The ‘Local’ and
‘CHI’ searches are mutually exclusive – both sources cannot
be searched simultaneously.
·
When
the CHI data source is selected, only the search criteria fields which relate
to a CHI specific search are enabled. Records which are returned from CHI can
subsequently be selected and matched with the input file – utilising the
appropriate matching rule selected by the user. The sequence of events when
manually matching against a CHI patient are: -
·
The
selected CHI patient is added to Store and the matching rule currently
configured against the ‘CHI Lookup’ interface applied to it. The
input file is then matched against the CHI record that was imported and the
matching rule manually selected by the user applied.
·
A
‘Test Match’ action is also available when viewing the CHI patient
record to provide visibility of what action will be taken if the CHI record is
imported.
Tracker 7891 –
Function to list UCPN’s associated with a patient - New functionality has been added to this
release of SCI Store to extend the range of functionality associated with
patient UCPN’s. The details are summarised below: -
·
A
new ‘Patient Pathway’ tab has been added to the access to the
'Patient Details' screen. Access to the new tab is controlled by the new module
permission 'View Patient Pathway' in the ‘Patient’ section of the
module permissions screen. This tab provides a tree view representation of all
UCPN numbers which have been allocated against a patient. All Test Results,
Documents and Treatment Log records associated with each UCPN can be viewed by
navigating the tree view.
·
The
‘Find Patient’ search screen has had the UCPN Search textbox moved
from the ‘Advanced Search Options’ search criteria to the standard
search criteria and a new ‘Must Have UCPN’ checkbox has been added
to the standard search criteria.
·
When
the ‘Must Have UCPN’ checkbox has been incorporated into a search,
only patients who have a UCPN associated with them will be returned by the
search. When patients returned by a search which has been restricted to only
return patients with a UCPN are selected, the user will be directly navigated
to the ‘Patient Pathway’ tab on the ‘Patient Details’
page. Where the search was not restricted by a ‘Must Have UCPN’
restriction, selecting a patient from the returned results will load the
default tab which the user account is configured for on the ‘Patient
Details’ page.
The
new ‘Patient Pathway’ tab and the ability to incorporate
UCPN’s in a ‘Find Patient’ search have not been implemented for remote data source patient viewing and
searching.
Tracker 9247 –
Changes to the CHI Number Validation Rules When Searching Against CHI Search
Provider
– The validation on the ‘Identifier’ field on the ‘Find
Patient’ search screen has been amended when users are invoking searches
against the CHI database via a Search Provider. Identifiers used in a CHI
search of this type must be exactly 10 numeric digits in length. Searches
invoked where this is not the case will not be permitted and the following error
message returned to the user: -
“Identifier (CHI Number) is not valid for a
CHI search - it must be a 10 digit numeric value”
Tracker 9283 - v8.1 Data
Partitioning: Add Filter to the Patient Document Displays – A new
‘Processed Range’ filter has been added to the
‘Documents’ tab on the ‘Patient Details’ page. The
default value for this filter will be globally defined by the new ‘Default DocumentDisplayRange’ system
setting. This filter allows the user to restrict the number of documents
displayed based on the date that they were added to SCI Store.
Users
can override the global default value by defining a personalised value via the
‘User Display Range Default’ option on the ‘My
Settings’ menu.
Note: This functionality has been implemented
for viewing ‘local’ Store patient documents only. When viewing
remote Store patients, the filter will be disabled on the ‘Documents tab.

Tracker 9133 - WS60 GetPatient
Response Returns An 'Object Reference Not Set...' Exception – This issue was reported by
NHS Greater Glasgow & Clyde and concerned a very particular set of
circumstances where the master patient record in a merge operation had been
allocated a UCPN as a result of a test result, treatment log or document being
associated with them. A subsequent Compas or Homer ADT file was then loaded for
the child patient in the merge. Following this the Webservice Version 6.0

retrieve the merged patient details. This issue has been resolved in this
release of SCI Store.

to resolve the issue.
Tracker 9207 - Saving a Change to a
Remote Data Source Profile When More Than 20 Data Sources Exist Generates an
Index Error –
This error - which was occurring due to the ‘paging’ which was
implemented on the screen - has now been resolved. It should be noted that
where multiple pages of data are available on this screen, changes made to any
page must be saved whilst still on the page where the change was made. The
‘Save’ icon only applies to the current page being amended.
Tracker 9276 - Documents Navigation
Issue - NHS Lothian
reported an issue when a mixture of document types were being viewed (e.g. XML
and PDF) by using the forward and back buttons in the toolbar navigation
control on the ‘View Document’s screen. This was sometimes
resulting in an exception screen being raised and an error being written to the
application event log. This seemed to predominantly occur when documents of
type .pdf were being viewed. This issue has been investigated and resolved in
this release of SCI Store
Tracker 9229 - CHI Broadcast -
Unmerge/Unlink Transaction Raises Exception In SCI Store – An issue was raised by NHS
Tayside where unmerge transactions received from the CHI Daily Broadcast were
