Retrieving Existing Patient Data
Use the ID List function to transfer existing patient information from a
destination drive, such as the MO drive, to the New Patient Data form.
Note:
The ID List function is available for data on the MO drive only.
You can search patient information by categories to locate a specific patient
name, patient ID, exam type, physician name, or storage date. For OB
patients, you can locate information based on the EDC (estimated date
of confinement).
With DIMAQ-IP, you can also retrieve existing patient information from the
hard disk or inserted CD.
Note: If you selected ID Store during a previous patient registration using the Patient
Data form, then the system saved (to MO disk) all information entered into the Patient
Data form for future retrieval.
To retrieve existing patient information for the patient data form:
1. Press the F1 function key located on the keyboard to access the patient
data form.
2. Roll the trackball to the ID LIST button located at the bottom of the form
and then press the SET key.
Note: The ID List function is available for data on the MO drive only.
The system displays the ID LIST screen with a listing of patient
information stored on the selected drive. Each row contains a specific
patient's information; the information is categorically arranged by
column headings.
The ID DATA field provides the total number of patient listings.
3. If you cannot locate a patient listing on the screen, then use the
following search method.
Note: The Reset button restores the original display of patient information.
a. Enter patient-related information in the Search Key field that
corresponds to the leftmost column heading in the patient list. To
change the heading category for a search, roll the trackball to the
corresponding column heading and then press the SET key.
b. Select the Search button to conduct the search.
c. Expand your search by entering a portion of the data information in
the Search Key field, for example, "Jo", for "Johnson" for the Name
column heading and then select the Contain checkbox and then
conduct the search.
