I am asking this on behalf of our Lab Director:
How are other facilities responding to multiple Lab tests with multiple
critical values for the same patient?
Currently we have a LIS canned text attached to each procedure for
recognition/reporting of critical values...see below
@First Notification:Time:[f now] Date:[f today] By:[f usern]
@MD/RN Notified:[]
@Results read back by MD/RN notified: Yes[] No[]
@Comment:[]
@Second Notification: Time[] Date:[] By:[]
@MD/RN Notified:[]
@Results read back by MD/RN notified: Yes[] No[]
@Comment:[]
*****IF PHYSICIAN DID NOT RESPOND*****
IMPLEMENT MEDICAL STAFF CHAIN OF COMMAND
This method is causing multiple calls to be made to MD/RN and we are
looking for suggestions to handle multiple critical values
on the same patient...
Thanks in advance.
