This guide is for users who view test results on the Patient’s Record in Sunrise for Pathology

 


Step

Tips/notes

1

With the relevant patient selected and displayed in the Patient Banner, click on the ‘Results’ tab

 

2

The ‘Options Panel’ on the left hand-side of the screen allows the results to be filtered

 

3

‘This Chart’ will show just results for the current attendance.

‘All Available Charts’ will display all results for all attendances.

 

Note - GP ordered test results from ICE will be available under ‘All Available Charts’

 

4

The results can be viewed in four different ways.

You can either click the ‘Display View’ icon from the Results tab toolbar and select your preferred view

 

Or click straight onto your preferred view at the bottom of the ‘Options Panel’ to change the results view (each view will be demonstrated in this guide).

 

5

‘Summary’ view is the default view – displays the results in a grid-like view and shows an overview for the selected patient

 

Flags appear in the grid cells to indicate whether results exist for a date.  If a cell contains no flag, no results exist for that date.

If you double click on a ‘flag’, the ‘Report by Order’ view screen will appear, for you to view more information on the test.

 

6

  Yellow Flag – indicates that a textual result exists

    Red Flag – indicates that one or more abnormal numeric results exist

    Green Flag – indicates that numeric results are within the normal range

 

If you right click on a ‘flag’, you can select a different view

 

7

‘Report by Order’ view – displays results in a detailed list view.  Abnormal results are noted by a red arrow up (high) or down (low)

 

The sort order can be changed in the options panel

 

8

If a comment has been inserted on a result, a ‘+’ icon will display on the comment line for the test.  This indicates that there is further information to read.

 


 

 

9

To view the full comment, click on the ‘+’ icon to open

 

Once reviewed, click on the ‘Close’ button at the bottom of the window

 

10

‘Textual Results’ for Pathology tests, will display a ‘+’ icon on the result line for the test.

 

11

To expand the textual result report, click the on the ‘+’ icon to read the text result data

 

Once reviewed, click on the ‘Close’ button at the bottom of the window

 

12

If any of the results have been updated (re-resulted), a ‘H’ icon will display against the test result line.  This indicates that there has been a change in the result and will need to be reviewed.

 

13

To view any tests that may have been updated (re-resulted), click on the ‘H’ (History) icon and the ‘Updated Results by Received Date’ window will display

 

Once you have reviewed the updates, click on the ‘Close’ button at the bottom of the window

 

14

‘Trend’ view – displays the numeric values across a period.     Abnormal results are displayed in red.     Arrows indicate whether the result is above or below the normal range.

 

15

‘Trend & Graph’ – in the trend view section at the top, click on a test row title to display the data in a graph view in the bottom section

Right click on the graph for more options, including adding data labels (similar to Excel)

 

16

Note - Results of tests with no collected time will show 00:00 as the time and 'no collection time'. They will not appear on the graph view, instead they will be displayed across the bottom of the graph view. This can be turned off in the right click menu.

 

17

Note – From any of the Result views, if you have a single test selected and wish to return to view all the results, click on the ‘Reset’ icon from the tab toolbar, to deselect the single test

Anomaly for Pathology Results - 

  • For Pathology, Telepath sends two messages to Sunrise for each result.
  • Steps 17 – 20 indicate what happens if the update message is received before the initial message due to an issue with the interface between Telepath and Sunrise

19

If the update message is received into Sunrise first:

  • The order is duplicated in the Orders tab

 

Orders Tab

 

  • The result shows once in both the Report by Order View & Trend View. This is an ‘unsolicited’ result (meaning not linked to an order or visit), visible by selecting ‘All Available Charts’ in the Options Panel on the Results tab

 

Results Tab – Report by Order View

 

Results Tab – Trend View

 

20

The initial message is then received later:

  • The original order status is updated

 

Orders Tab

 

  • The result shows twice in both the Report by Order View & Trend View. The date and time are the same for both. In the Trend View, the user can sort by date so the most recent results are displayed in the column closest to the result name

 

Results Tab – Report by Order View

 

Results Tab – Trend View

 

21

If a Result is then subsequently Amended:

  • The original order status is updated

 

Orders Tab

 

  • Only the previous initial result is updated, generating the H icon. As the unsolicited update result is not associated with the Order, it does not receive the updates. Again, in the Trend View, the user can sort by date so the most recent results are displayed in the column closest to the result name

 

Results Tab – Report by Order View

 

Results Tab – Trend View

 

22

The messages show different indicators for abnormal results:

 

  • The initial message shows       

  • The update message shows    

 

  • A mixed economy will be displayed in the Result Views

 

 

23

Note - Telepath will still be available to access as normal via your desktop.
