On viewing the lab orders results from the patient encounter, the "Unit ID" is displayed instead of the actual unit names

Hi,

On placing lab order for a patient with OpenEMR version 4.2.1 and on viewing the results for the processed lab orders from the patients encounter, the units for the lab results are dispayed with the “Unit ID” and the unit names are not dispalyed in the results.

This is observed for all the processed lab results.!

Is this a bug in OpenEMR or anything that I need to ensure at my end regarding the lab configurations.

Thanks in advance for assistance.

Thanks,

Hi,

To confirm, are you are seeing the option_id rather than the title from the units list. If that is what is happening, then that is a bug and agree should be displaying the title.

Hi Visolve,

Yep, that is a bug that can be quickly fixed with use of the getListItemTitle() function: openemr/options.inc.php at master · openemr/openemr · GitHub

By the way, for electronic results the units field is currently displayed as provided by the lab. This may or may not match something in the Procedure Units list. If it doesn’t then the fix will display the value as-is.

I expect the lab intends their provided value to be human-readable, so it probably doesn’t matter much either way.
