Infections window – Infectious Diseases tab

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

Use the Infectious Diseases tab to enter or modify information on infectious diseases a patient has or had previously, and enter additional comments regarding the disease.

This tab opens with the Show History check box selected by default which allows viewing all infectious diseases of the patient. Even if an infectious disease is currently inactive in the system but was previously documented for the patient, it is displayed for that patient.

If you want to add a new disease, you can select only currently active infectious diseases.

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

• You can sort, group, or filter information in this grid to easily find the needed infection.
• To group data by any column, drag the needed column 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 the down arrow next to the needed column name and select the criteria you want to filter by.
• You may filter patient's infections by multiple columns at once using the Custom Filter dialog where you can choose how to display data and setting needed logical parameters.
• When data are filtered by any of the parameters, the down arrow becomes highlighted in blue.
• To clear all filters, click down arrow and select (All) from the drop-down list.
