| In
the Lab specific intro level we continue on with what you've learned
in the standard course by focusing on the data structures. Lab
specific data structures that is. We go over in detail how the
data is stored, where it's stored and most importantly...how to
get it out. |
1. Module
Overview |
We cover the Lab
application in general and how it's four component modules (Standard
Lab, Blood Bank, Microbiology and Pathology) share four common data
components. |
2.
Lab Common Components |
The
four common components (Patients, Requisitions, Sites and Reports)
and their data structures are looked at in considerable detail. |
3.
Lab Specimen Data Structures |
An
in-depth look at the standard Lab specimen data structures.
We look at which fields and indexes are important to you as
a report writer. Also looked at is how Lab stores dates/times
and how to work with them. |
4. Standard Lab Example |
We
combine a closer look at the specimen data structures with an
example to show you how to get the results on a report. We also
add a few "real-world" specification changes to keep
things interesting and help prepare you for when it really happens. |
5. Specific Patient Reports |
Identifying
and selecting particular patients for display on Lab reports
requires a little explanation and a look at the underlying data
structures. We create a single patient select report as well
as a specific patient list report. |
| In
the Lab optional intro level we continue on with what you've learned
in the standard Lab course by focusing on the data structures
that are specific to Blood Bank (BB), Microbiology (MIC) and Pathology
(PTH). |
1. Blood
Bank Data Structures |
An
in-depth look at the Blood Bank specimen and unit data structures.
We look at which fields and indexes are important. |
2.
Blood Bank Example |
We
do a department workload report to reinforce the totaling and
summary functions of the Report Writer. |
3.
Microbiology Data Structures |
An
in-depth look at the Microbiology specimen data structures.
We look at which fields and indexes are important. |
4.
Microbiology Example |
We do a procedure and results report that references child data
segments. Also added are graphical attributes to enhance the
look of the report. |
5.
Pathology Data Structures |
An
in-depth look at the Pathology specimen data structures. We
look at which fields and indexes are important. |
6. Pathology
Example |
We do a results report that
is restricted to specific user defined sections. |
