VA Extended and IOP Extended Fields Read Only Setting

You can decide how many days users have to edit the data fields on the VA and the IOP templates with the Make VA Extended and IOP Extended read only setting. This setting limits users to the configured number of days for editing of the VA and IOP fields. After the configured number of days has passed, the VA and IOP fields become read-only. Note: Users can only edit Visual Acuity or Intraocular Pressure measurement(s) measurements that they entered. You cannot edit measurements entered by another user. If you do not enter a value in the Make VA Extended and IOP Extended read only field, the fields remain editable for an unlimited number of days. Note: The time limit can be changed at any time. If after setting a time limit, to return to unlimited, select zero days to reset the limit to unlimited.

IOP Measurements

IOP Measurements IOP Measurements The settings in the IOP Measurements section of the Eye Configuration practice template enable practices to choose whether to display fields for documenting measurements using kilopascal values, and to define high and low abnormal values for measurements in mm Hg and kPa on the IOP panel or section of exam templates. Setting abnormal values here causes an Abnormal findings present alert to appear on the IOP panel when one of these values is met or exceeded. iop measurements section These additional fields for kilopascal (kPa) values are saved as additional columns in the IOP data grids on the templates. The following shows the kilopascal (kPa) fields on the Oph Eyetech template when documenting preliminary exam findings. oph eyetech template Set IOP Measurement Ranges for High and Low Values Enter IOP Measurement Data on Exam Templates Parent topic: Oph Setup - Eye Config Practice Template

Set IOP Measurement Ranges for High and Low Values

On the Eye Configuration template, go to the IOP section. Set abnormal value ranges for mm Hg by clicking the following fields and selecting a value from the list: Abnormal value (High) field for mm Hg Abnormal value (Low) field for mm Hg Select the Use kPa fields for IOP measurements check box. Selecting this setting causes additional data entry fields for documenting kilopascal (kPa) values to appear in the IOP panel or section. By default, this setting is not selected. Set abnormal value ranges for kPa by clicking the following fields and using the on-screen number pad or your keyboard to enter values: Abnormal value (High) field for kPa Abnormal value (Low) field for kPa Parent topic: IOP Measurements

IOP Exam

On the Prelim Exam - OPH and Provider - OPH templates, the IOP section displays current encounter exam findings, as well as findings for the last five encounters. iop panel data On the Oph EyeTech template, the IOP panel is used to document exam details and findings and displays historical exam findings in the grid. IOP measurements can be entered in mm Hg and/or Kilopascals (kPa). IOP measurements documented for an encounter can be compared to baseline values to determine the percentage of reduction in IOP for the patient. iop panel The Intraocular Pressure (IOP) panel appears on multiple templates, including. Home Page - OPH - is used to display historical data Prelim Exam – OPH–is used for technician workflow Oph EyeTech– is used when documenting technician exam findings; displays historical data Postoperative Exam - OPH- is used when documenting postoperative exams after Ophthalmology procedures Note: On the Provider – OPH template, the IOP exam is located on the Physical Exam pane

Update IOP Findings

Highlight a row with data to be edited or viewed in detail in one of the grids on the IOP panel. Click Edit to open the Oph EyeTech template. Expand the IOP panel. Historical IOP data appears in the grid. The data entry fields above the grid are read-only and display values contained in the highlighted row for both eyes. Double-click the desired row in the IOP grid to update data. The IOP mm Hg and kPa – OPH extended template or IOP Extended - OPH template opens. iop extended - oph template To update IOP measurements in mm Hg, click the corresponding OD and OS fields and select from lists. To update IOP measurements in kPa, click the corresponding OD and OS fields and type the value or click the blue arrow and enter values using the numeric keypad. Enter comments in the Comments field. Click Save. Click Clear For Add to clear template fields and enter new values, if appropriate. Click Close. Do one of the following: On the IOP panel on the Oph EyeTech template, click Clear to change th
