We have multiple MISC tests in OE, each with the message query to only enter 1 test per order. They are something like MISC, MISC2 MISC3, MISC4. They enter the test name as a query and we pull the query into the spec comments on the specimen header. That keeps each misc test separate. It's not fool proof, but it's better then 1 test with multiple comments.Barbara Howard Wuesthoff Health Systems 6800 Spyglass Court Melbourne,Fl 32940 321-255-8068 [EMAIL PROTECTED] -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, September 29, 2006 9:33 AM To: [email protected] Subject: [MEDITECH-L] Lab miscellaneous test All messages should be posted in plain text. HTML will be converted to attachments. The meditech-l web site is MTUsers.com ====================================== Hi, I was wondering how other hospital's handle miscellaneous test's for Lab ordered through OE. When the nursing staff orders the miscellaneous test they enter the comments as far as what test and what specimen Then lab orders the test through ARUP and when the results come back they enter those in the paragraph section in Lab. At that point nursing sees the test and results. The problem some patients may have multiple miscellaneous tests. The nursing staff does not know what test was actually ordered because all they see is miscellaneous test from the time it is ordered until the result is entered. How is nursing notified as to what test was ordered and that is was ordered based on the miscellaneous order? Is it possible to get the queries entered by nursing on the specimen reports so they will know what was ordered. .
