Infections window – Infections tab

Path: Patient>Clinical>Adverse Events>Infections>Infections

Use the Infections tab to enter or modify information on system infections (occur within a particular body system, for example, respiratory infection, gastrointestinal infection, reproductive infection, skin infection) that a patient has or had before, and enter additional comments regarding these infections.

This tab opens with the Show History check box selected by default that allows viewing all system infections for the selected patient. Even if an infection system is inactive but was previously documented for the patient, it is displayed for that patient.

If you want to add a new infection, you can select only currently active infection systems.

The Infections grid contains the Type, Start Date, End Date, and Comments columns that reflect information entered in the properties section of the window (lower section).

• You can sort, group, or filter information in this grid to find the needed infection.
• To group data by any column, drag the needed header to the free space above the grid and the data will be grouped in the hierarchical order.
• Click the needed column header to sort by that column data.
• To filter by specific data, click  next to the needed column name, and select the filtering criteria.
• To filter patient's infections by multiple columns, use the Custom Filter dialog, where you can choose how to display data and set logical parameters. When data is filtered by any of the parameters, the down arrow is highlighted in blue.
• To clear all filters, click down arrow and select (All) from the drop-down list.
