Overview
This flow describes how to retract an allergy that somebody recorded by mistake.
Pre-requisites
- The patient has a saved allergy.
- The patient has an open encounter at the facility, and you retract the allergy from that encounter.
- The encounter is not Completed, Cancelled, Discontinued, or Entered in Error. In these states, all add and edit controls are read-only.
- You have the permissions listed below.
Permissions
| Permission | Access |
|---|---|
| Can submit questionnaire about patient encounters | Lets you submit the allergy screen of the encounter. |
| Update Encounter related clinical data | Lets you retract an allergy of the encounter. |
| Can view clinical data about patients | Lets you see the allergies of the patient. |
Steps
1. Open the allergy screen
Open the encounter. Go to the Overview tab. Find the Allergies section. Select the edit (pencil) icon.
You can also press the keyboard shortcut a on any encounter screen.
2. Find the allergy
Find the row of the allergy in the table.
3. Mark the allergy as entered in error
Open the more-options (⋮) menu of the row. Select Remove Allergy.
You can also set the Status of the row to Entered in Error.
Note: For a saved allergy, Remove Allergy sets the Status to Entered in Error. For a new row that you did not submit, Remove Allergy deletes the row.
4. Submit
Select Submit.
Expected Outcome
- MANSOQ shows the confirmation "Questionnaire submitted successfully".
- MANSOQ keeps the allergy, with the Status Entered in Error.
- MANSOQ leaves the allergy out of the Allergies section of the encounter.
- MANSOQ leaves the allergy out of the allergy history of the patient.
- The more-options (⋮) menu of the row now shows Already marked as error.
Note: MANSOQ has no separate delete action for an allergy. Entered in Error is the only way to retract one.
