Nikolai Vitsyn is adding a surgeries section to the problem list.
Any objections?

Surgeries are supposed to be listed in the Patient Had section of the summary section (or is it history section). Anyway, I’m going to change this to be labeled Surgeries instead of “Patient Had”

Well, actually, the surgeries section in history.php is grossly inadequate.
How many patients have only one knee surgery or one hip surgery? A simple date without the operating surgeon, special factors surrounding the surgery, and the hospital where the surgery was performed are all important historical features.
Most physicians will consider the surgeries part of "the problem list". A problem list should include chronic problems, medications, allergies, surgeries and immunizations. This should all be on the summary page.
The history.php section that states "the patient had:" is an excellent place for the last date of routine screening procedures such as physicals, pap smears, mamograms, diabetic eye exams, hemoccult exams, colonoscopies.
The current "patient had:" section is a poorly thought combination of surgical procedures that need a lot more detail and a chronic screening list that needs more items included.
If we move Surgeries into the lists table and include this on the summary page we get much richer detail and true full problem list.
The existing surgeries under "Patient had:" could then be renamed to include more important screening procedures.
The default inclusion of blank date (0000-00-00) causes a lot of trouble and should be removed.

Having solid organization of information is a big bonus when it comes to actually using the product. In my opinion, this will increase the professionalism of the project and “cleans up some clutter.” The lists on the patient’s “front page” also serve as a good, quick reference point.

So, what is the concluding concensus? I added the problem list at the request of my wife because there was no such animal at the time. The "Patient Had" definitely needs to be renamed. Suggestions… ??? Also, if a new Surgeries List is implemented, which is fairly simple, then it would work as the other "lists" do, namely a date and comment. We should also include a script or instructions to move existing data from the "Patient Had" section to this new Surgeries List.

That’s a good point, tekknogenius. I agree. I asked Nikolai to write that script as well.

The surgeries are added to the existing "lists" table and works exactly the same as problems, medications, allergies, and imunizations. It is a very minimal code change.

Hi,
Yesterday I added two new files (medical_problem.php and surgeries.php) and updated three files (patient_summary.php, starts.php and start_full.php) to our repository. Now you will be see two simple screenshots, updating patient page.
**********************************************************
Patient’s Name
Demographics(More)
Name:
Number:
Address
Medical Problems() Medications() Allergies() Surgeries() Immunization() Prescription()
| Patients Notes()
**********************************************************
Other patient’s page will be look like this:
***********************************************************
Patient Name(Age ID)
Medical Problems(Back) Medications(More) Allergies(Back) Surgeries(Back)
Immunization(Back)
-----------------------------
-----------------------------
-------------------------------------------------
**********************************************************
Any suggestions is greatly appreciated.
Nikolai

Question, since I haven’t looked at the new code. Are the Surgeries sections the same? Meaning, which ever one I go into (either from summary page or patient history page) will they show the same thing? The old surgeries section (was orginally labeled ‘Patient Had’) is that still there? If so, is there a script to move data from that format to the new format?
This would be helpful to those that have data there already.

Your updates are broken. Your comments at the begining of the page break it. Also, the page shows horizontally instead of vertically like it used to. I mean the different lists show 80% instead of 20%.
tekknogenius wrote on Tuesday, April 12, 2005:
Was this even tested before put in CVS? Every file touched by this update is messed up.
1) The comment on the first line blows the whole thing up.
2) You removed the resizing ability of the frames
3) The stats.php now is the 80% and shows horizontally, the problems summary shows 20%
4) The stats_full.php has multiple "change activity" button links and the last list is cutoff, and since there is no resizing of the frame, its rather hard to see all of the bottom list without scrolling, but there is plenty of room for it to fit.
Please, test before you put in CVS. Perhaps your screen resolution is more than 1024x768 (which is what I’m assuming is the standard).

It seems clear that these changes as submitted are not acceptable. I have reverted patient_summary.php, stats.php and stats_full.php to their states as of revisions 1.1, 1.2 and 1.2, respectively.
Please do not commit untested changes.

Could you also reverse the medical_problems.php? That was also changed (although only a comment was added to the top line, thereby breaking the script).
Thanx
tekknogenius wrote on Tuesday, April 12, 2005:
Never mind. I see what happened. Instead of changing problems.php it was just copied into a new file called medical_problems.php and edited there. So, when the surgery changes are fixed, problems.php should be deleted.
