The Laboratory Tab is primarily used by laboratory staff to manage the progress and results of patient analyses. Laboratory Workers have the ability to update the readiness status of analyses and enter conclusions. Other users, such as doctors, can only view the result in the Patient tab and cannot modify the analysis progress.
Laboratory Tab Structure:
Upon accessing the Laboratory tab, you will see a list of all ongoing patient analyses. Each row in the table represents a different analysis and includes columns for:
# (ID Number): Unique identifier for the analysis.
Type: Type of analysis conducted (e.g., blood RH, etc.).
Patient: Name of the patient.
Prescribed by: Doctor who ordered the analysis.
Status: The current status of the analysis (e.g., To Do, In Progress, Done, Failed, Waiting for Results).
Changing the Status of an Analysis:
Only laboratory workers can change the status of an analysis. To update the status:
Select the analysis from the list by clicking the edit icon next to the status.
You will be taken to the detailed view of the analysis.
Use the Status dropdown to select one of the following statuses:
To Do
In Progress
Waiting for Results
Done
Failed
Once the status is updated, click Save to apply the changes.
Entering Analysis Results:
After conducting the analysis, the results must be documented. Here's how to add them:
Select the analysis you want to update.
Scroll down to the Results section.
Enter your findings or conclusions regarding the analysis.
Click Save once the information is entered.
Viewing Analysis History:
All users with appropriate permissions can view the list of analyses along with their status and results. However, only laboratory workers can edit and manage the status and results.
💡Notes:
Primary Role: The Laboratory tab is primarily for lab workers, who can update the status of analyses and enter results. Other roles can only view this information but cannot make changes.
Tab Layout: The Laboratory tab displays all ongoing analyses in a table format, showing details like analysis ID, type, patient name, prescribing doctor, and current status.
