- COVID-19 Quick Filter in Chart Review Labs
This is a good place to check for current, recent or past COVID-19 test results. A "Quick Filter" is easily created so that a single click instantly displays COVID-19 test results any time a chart is opened to the labs review.
- Click on the "Filters" button within Chart Review >> Labs.
- Select the "Order" filter type if not selected by default.
- Enter "COVID-19" in the "Order contains..." search box. It is important to match the spelling and capitalization as it would appear in a results list. All COVID-19 test results should appear in the results list area.
- Look to the bottom of the Filter column and select "Save as New Filter" to see a pop-up offering to create a new filter that will pull test results that have "COVID-19" in the test name.
- Give the new custom filter a name like "COVID-19 Tests".
- A checkbox will appear in the Filters row just above listed lab results. Selecting this will filter out just the COVID-19 results. This can be used for any patient to quickly review present and past testing.
- If a Quick Filter is active, you can use the above steps to change its parameters (e.g., add in other lab tests that are helpful assessing the severity of COVID-19 illness to produce a filter that focuses attention on what is most relevant to COVID-19 prognostication).
- An existing Quick Filter can be removed by selecting the personalization icon (wrench) at the top-right of the Chart Review activity, then the "Manage Quick Filters" command.
