Question Setup

Questions in VetView are used for Requests and Request Catalogs to allow the recieving unit the opportunity to gather information about the patient alongside the request document.  Questions are intended to be filled out by the submitting unit. 

For example, a surgery team may want to verify that the patient has been fasting for a period of time prior to the surgery, so they will include this as a question on their Surgery Request Catalog.  It will automatically be appended to all Surgery Request Catalog items.

Questions can be re-used across Catalogs and Catalog Items, so only need to be set up once for all Catalogs in the hospital that will use the same question.  If identical questions are created during Catalog setup by accident, they can be merged later on to reduce duplicates.

Question Search

At the top of the Question Setup screen is the Question Search.  This feature allows you to search all the existing questions based on key words.  You can also search based on the Value List type intended for answers.  (See the Value List setup tab for setting up value list drop down menus.) 

Question Value List Types may also be dates, time stamps, numbers, or empty text fields.

Questions

A Question contains the name of the Question (exactly as it will appear on the Request item), the type of Value List for the answer, and the ID.

Using the example of confirming that a patient has fasted before surgery, the question may be a simple "Fast" and the answer a confirmation of "Done."

Different types may ask for different restrictions.  For example, selecting a type of Value List will ask you to chose that value list.  If the Number is selected, you can put in a minimum or maximum value restriction.

Sub Questions

Sub-questions can be associated with a parent question.  Each aprent question can have multiple sub questions, and each sub-question can have its own sub question.

If multiple sub-questions are added, they can also be sorted.

Questions on the Request Dialog Box on the Patient Record

Catalog Questions and Catalog Item questions will both appear on the second page of the Request Dialog Box.  This is done so that the initial draft of the Request, including specimens, can be saved in Draft Status, even if all the questions cannot be answered yet.

Questions may also be split in this dialog box, if different Unit Catalogs were selected during the request selection process.  Go to each tab to answer the questions for that request.

Questions (and answers) on the Request Screen

The Request Questions and the answers provided by the clinical team will appear on the first tab of the Request Screen.

These questions can be edited by anyone who has the appropriate role for the Request Catalog Items, if there is a missing answer or typos that need to be corrected.  This allows the Request unit to make the changes without having to reject the request for a small issue.

Questions (and answers) in VetView Labs

If VetView Hospital submits a Request to VetView Labs, the questions and answers will appear on the Request Details screen, and will also carry through to the Accession Screen.

On the VetView Portal, any questions related to a Lab Request will need to be added to the Lab Catalog Item Setup, not the Hospital Catalog Item setup.
