Result filters can be configured to determine whether a result is critical or not. To determine which critical filter to activate for each critical result, the system selects the filter that matches with the ordered location of the test and the test code.
We determine this information from the HL7 results message : Ordered location of test : ORC - 13 field
Navigate to 'Clinical' and click on 'Result Filters' from the dropdown
Click on '+ Create New Filter.'
There should be a pop-up that will appear. Fill up the fields as per your requirements.
Lab type : You can select from Biochemistry, ECG, Haematology, Microbiology or Radiology.
Test name (Test code) : You can select the relevant test name here. If your test code is not available in the dropdown, refer here instructions on how to add a new test code.
Locations: This is the result's ordered location. If your location codeset is not available in the dropdown, refer here instructions on how to add a new codeset.
SMS template: This section allows you to configure the SMS message sent to end users (e.g., physicians). Copy and paste the valid variables you want to include in the message.
Below you can see a template of the SMS sent to physicians which is configured by the SMS template field.
