Overview
This flow describes how to record a processing step for a collected specimen in MANSOQ. A processing step is work done on the specimen before testing, such as centrifuging or staining.
Pre-requisites
- You collected the specimen, and the specimen card shows on the service request page.
- No user created a diagnostic report for the service request. MANSOQ hides the processing section after a diagnostic report exists for the service request.
- You have the permissions listed below.
Permissions
| Permission | Access |
|---|---|
| Can Create Specimen on Facility | Lets you record processing steps on a specimen at the facility. Facility Admin, Admin, Doctor, and Nurse have this permission. |
Steps
1. Open the service request page
Open the service request for the specimen. The page shows a card for each specimen.
2. Find the processing section
Go to the card of the collected specimen. The card shows the processing section.
Note: MANSOQ shows the processing section only after you collect the specimen.
3. Select the processing method
Select the processing method from the coded list. The method names the work done on the specimen.
4. Add the description
MANSOQ opens a dialog. Enter a description of the processing step. Save the processing step.
| Components | What it captures |
|---|---|
| Method | The processing method from the coded list. |
| Description | Your description of the processing step. |
5. Add more processing steps
Repeat steps 3 and 4 for each further processing step. MANSOQ keeps all steps on the specimen.
Expected Outcome
- The specimen shows the processing step with the method, the description, the performer, and the time.
- The specimen keeps every processing step that you add.
