PFT Data Entry
Covered by this topic
Manual Entry
Add From Chart Tab
Navigating to the Medical Record/PFT chart tab. The chart tab will display an entry screen to key in a new PFT test, but will also show a List View of all of the archived/closed (i.e., stored documents) PFT tests at the bottom of the page.
To add new PFT data from the Medical Record/PFT chart tab:
- Click the New Manual Test to enter the PFT data.
- If performing a New Manual Test, begin filling in the fields with the appropriate data.
- In the PFT manual-entry screen, there is the ability to enter an interpretation and mark a maneuver as the best maneuver. In the list of all maneuvers, views of the interpretation of a maneuver will show the first 25 characters, with the rest visible while hovering.
When completed, click the Save button. The Save button will only appear if the New Manual Test button has been clicked.
The data will be stored in the system in the PFT chart tab.
Add from Encounter Section
The PFT may be added to an encounter in multiple ways. One method is by selecting the PFT order on the Due List, found in the Tests & Procedures section of the encounter, then using the Perform button to allow for manual entry or device import.
If the PFT is not found on the Due List, it can be autocompleted in the Tests & Procedures section and added to the encounter.
Alternatively, the PFT may be selected using the Picklist icon by selecting the order from the list and adding it to the encounter.
Import PFT Data From Device
Users on RC202503 will no longer have the option to Load from Device. As of RC202503, users must update import controls to use the MIE Device App. Users will save PFT results to the MIE Device App and the device app will automatically import results to the patient chart and insert results as a separate document. The PFT procedure encounter section is still available for users to manually enter PFT results.
For databases on RC202409 and older, users will still have the ability to enter data manually, or upload results from a device using the Load From Device controls provided a PFT interface has been established. To utilize uploading results from a device, see other help documentation named Device Interface – PFT System, for more information.
Reporting
These types of report links are generally found in the Reports sidemenu, under the Visits grouping of reports. These reports enable a client to review the various data captured during a visit or encounter. The PFT Summary Report is available here, for example.
