Copy Previous Surgery Details

On the NBV PolyTrauma template, you can copy the details of a previous surgery from the Past Orthopedic Surgeries grid of the Surgery Information panel to the Assessment and Plan panel for follow-up visits of the polytrauma fracture care.

The Past Orthopedic Surgeries grid displays the details of the previous surgeries documented for the patient. If the surgery was coded on any fracture care templates, the procedure is automatically added to this grid. You can manually add a procedure to this grid on the Intake template.
