Hi Mohamed,

 

We enter diagnosis one of two ways on HTML forms.  

 

1.) We have some diagnosis that are coded with HAS assigned numeric
codes.  The provider writes the number on the paper and that number is
typed into the select box (dropdown) by the data entry clerk which has
the name of each item preceded by its number.  When you type the number
it goes to that point in the list.

 

2.) We use the autocomplete options for obs, and specify it should
search diagnosis.  Set style = "autocomplete" to display a autocomplete
widget.  You can see the syntax for that on this page...

https://wiki.openmrs.org/display/docs/HTML+Form+Entry+Module+HTML+Refere
nce

<obs conceptId="1296" answerClasses="Diagnosis" style="autocomplete"/>

 

ICD10 codes can be entered into a text observation (which is not
recommended), or they could be mapped to OpenMRS concepts, and then you
would choose those concepts (the preferred method).  When you create a
concept look at the concept mappings section.  Either way, there isn't a
hierarchical system in place that I am aware of.  Write back to the list
if you have additional questions about this and someone more qualified
will be able to explain things these better for you.

 

Thanks,

James

Subject: [OPENMRS-IMPLEMENTERS] Diagnoses with a HTML form using
dropdown

 

Dear All:

What is the best way to enter Diagnoses with a HTML form ? As there
are hundreds of potential diagnosis or clinical problems, using a
 dropdown is not effective.
Can one use a search box that searches for concepts ?
How are ICD-10 codes entered for example ? Is there a hierarchical
system in place, where you first chose the chapter and then the number
block ?

Thanks for your help

mohamed
