Overview
This flow describes how to retract a symptom or a diagnosis that you recorded by mistake. MANSOQ stores each of them as a condition. MANSOQ never deletes a saved clinical record. MANSOQ keeps the record and sets its Verification to Entered in Error, so the clinical history stays complete.
Pre-requisites
- You or a colleague recorded the symptom or the diagnosis on the encounter.
- The encounter is the patient's active encounter.
- The encounter status is not Completed, Cancelled, Discontinued, or Entered in Error.
- You have the permissions listed below.
Permissions
| Permission | Access |
|---|---|
| Can view clinical data about patients | View the symptoms and the diagnoses of the patient. |
| Can Read encounter related clinical data | View the symptoms and the diagnoses of the encounter. |
| Update Encounter related clinical data | Set the Verification of a symptom or a diagnosis to Entered in Error. |
Steps
1. Open the symptom screen or the diagnosis screen
Start from the Overview tab of the encounter.
- For a symptom, select the edit (pencil) icon in the Symptoms section. You can also press the keyboard shortcut s.
- For a diagnosis, select the edit (pencil) icon in the Diagnoses section. You can also press the keyboard shortcut d.
2. Find the row to retract
Find the row of the symptom or the diagnosis that you want to retract.
3. Open the more-options menu
Select the more-options (⋮) menu of the row.
4. Select the remove action
Select the remove action. For a symptom, the action reads Remove Symptom.
What happens next depends on the record:
- If you did not submit the record yet, MANSOQ removes the row from the list. MANSOQ keeps no record of it.
- If the record is already saved, MANSOQ sets its Verification to Entered in Error. The row stays in the list with that label.
Note: After MANSOQ sets the Verification of a saved record to Entered in Error, the remove action is unavailable. The tooltip of the action reads "Already marked as error".
5. Submit the change
Select Submit.
Expected Outcome
- MANSOQ shows the confirmation "Questionnaire submitted successfully".
- The record keeps the Verification value Entered in Error.
- MANSOQ leaves the records with the Verification value Entered in Error out of the Past Symptoms list and the Past Diagnoses list. You do not carry them into a later encounter.
- To record the correct information, add a new symptom or a new diagnosis.
Note: The Entered in Error value does not show in the Verification list of a normal record. You set this value only with the remove action.
