[MEDITECH-L] Report Assistance Needed (again)

[Maria P. McPherson]

I am with a Meditech Magic 5.62 facility with a report written in
ABS.PAT to pull all inpatients (year to date) older than 69 yrs of age
with a financial class of Medicare. My problem is that I need to be able
to pull if the patient had an advance directive on admission which is
captured in the NUR module. I attempted to write a report in
NUR.PC.WORK but it returns no records found. I was wondering if there
is a way to pull information, i.e query responses, from NUR to ABS.PAT?

Any assistance is greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Maria

If the query is flagged as demo recall, you could use a fragment in MRI.DRC to check the ccdqr.response in demo recall. Otherwise, if the data has not purged from NUR, you could use a fragment in NUR.PC.WORK to pull the @td.response

You pass the @adm.urn from ABS and select in NUR against @patient
You would code for the intevention number(s) used for the assessment/interventions used to collect the query and also select for the query

Create the NUR fragment with NO detail section. Say "N" on page 1 to Detail. Otherwise you'll print a blank line from the fragment every time you call it x the number of times the intervention you select was documented and/or edited.

>From ABS:

LC=@adm.urn^/R.FRAG.ARG1,
LC=%Z.rw.fragment("NUR.PC.WORK.zcus.is.your.report.here.R","NUR.XYZ"),1 <== replace with your NUR database mnemonic

NUR fragment (detail segment nur.documented.results / (a/k/a td.results)
Do not use an index. Since you are passing in the @patient field and selecting @int.base EQ, an index would not make the report any faster.

patient EQ
/R.FRAG.ARG1
int.base EQ <== substitute your int # here
"102341"
td.query EQ <== substitute your query mnemonic here
"NUR.ADVDIR"
xx.ck.undo EQ
1

This computed field gets the report to skip undone interventions.

xx.ck.undo
DAT=INT
LEN=1
VAL=IF{@activity[,,,,,td.act.ctr#"0."_".99"] "";1}

Footnote

By storing the responses and processing the documentation in td.act.date/td.act.time/td.act.ctr order and skipping undos, /R.FRAG.VAL will have the latest and greatest (but not undone) response to the advanced directive query.

AL D @td.value^/R.FRAG.VAL
