Check Condition

Check Condition on the right mouse menu allows checking for contra-indications, precautions and prescriber warnings. If you highlight a clinical line, for example, a medical history entry on a List screen, and click with the right mouse, selecting Check Condition, the system will check whether there are any associated warnings for this patient's clinical condition.

If there are no warnings, the message reads: "This type of data cannot be checked for contraindications, precautions and prescriber warnings, against the patient's existing therapy. Orit may say: The selected clinical condition has no associated warnings."

If there are any warnings, these will be displayed as a Drug Check Results screen. The illustration below is checking the conditions for a History entry of Reflux acid - The following information may be relevant to diagnosing Acid reflux for this patient: Precautions - History of peptic ulcer.

The Drug Check Results screen is explained in the Therapy section - see Drug check displays.
