Manual Entry of Parity Values

You can manually enter parity values for a turned-off parity automatic calculation.

1. On the Patient Information Card in NextGen® Enterprise EHR, select OBGYN.
   The OBGYN Synopsis template opens.
2. In the Pregnancy History grid, enter the values in the Parity section.
   The G and P fields display the values as entered in the Parity fields.
3. In the Pregnancy History grid, select the Add/Update Detail button in the OBGYN Synopsis template.
   The Pregnancy Outcomes template displays with red text on top of the template.
4. In the Pregnancy Outcomes template, to enter a historic pregnancy:
   1. Select the Historic entry option in Pregnancy Entry Type field.
   2. Select the pregnancy number in the Pregnancy # field.
   3. Select if this is a Full term or Premature pregnancy in the Gestational age section.
      • For Full term pregnancy, if a pregnancy is >=37 weeks (37 weeks 0 days or later) the Full term field is incremented by 1.
      • For Preterm pregnancy, if a pregnancy is <37 weeks (36 weeks 6 days or earlier) the Preterm field is incremented by 1 (Preterm = Premature).
        Note: Document either a gestational age or the Full term / Preterm options for all outcomes with a gestational age >=20 weeks. An application message displays for the Add to Grid and Update buttons if not documented. Only when it is documented, the data is available in the grid.
      • If a pregnancy is >=20 weeks (20 weeks 0 days or later) the Delivery type increments the associated field by 1.
      • If you select the Abortion and Ectopic fields, <=20 weeks fields, to increment the associated full description detail fields on the right in the gray banner. The missed abortion is counted as a spontaneous abortion in the header.
   4. Select the delivery type in the Delivery type field.
   5. Select Add to Grid.

      An application message appears that parity needs manual input and is not updated automatically.

      The Update Parity displays at the end of the template.

   6. Update the parity values manually related to the most recent entry before the Save and Close button replaces the Update Parity message.
   7. Select Save & Close.
      The entry displays in the Pregnancy history grid.
