Fields Descriptions
Drug name or Drug class or Condition
When adding criteria, first select the desired search option (Drug, Drug class, Condition) radio button to search for:
  • Drug name will search patient medication list based on selected drug from the drug list/search.
  • Drug class will search patient medication list for all drugs included in the selected drug class based on selected drug class from the drug class navigator.
  • Condition will search patient condition list based on selected condition from the drug list/search.

When the type (see above) has been selected the search/list below is activated allowing you to find the drug, drug class or condition to be searched for. In most cases if you start to type the first couple of letters, a list is generated, from which you can select the appropriate term and it will automatically be added to the search criteria. For the drug class instead of typing a browse function is used allowing you to browse and add a class at any point in the hierarchy.

Multiple criteria may be added by repeating this procedure. The added criteria will be shown as ‘bubbles’ below allowing to easily see the added criteria and remove them if no longer required or added in error.

And Or filters

For example:
  • If the search is for patients who has condition 1 and condition 2 only patients which has both conditions will be returned.
  • If the search is for patients who has condition 1 or condition 2 patients with either conditions will be returned.
Note: The And/Or variable only applies within the space type of criteria (i.e. conditions) when searching for different criteria (conditions and drug names) an ‘and’ will always apply between these.
For example:
  • (condition1 and condition 2) and (medication 1 and medication 2)
  • (condition1 or condition 2) and (medication 1 and medication 2)
  • (condition1 and condition 2) and (medication 1 or medication 2)
