What are Chronic Disease Registers?
Important - The Chronic Disease Registers in Vision 3 have been superseded by Vision+, please see the Vision+ Help Centre for help with managing your patients with chronic diseases.
Patients with chronic diseases can be placed on Chronic Disease Registers. This has the advantage of grouping patients under one register, although the clinical terms for the conditions vary.
The categories for the chronic disease registers are:
- Asthma
- Hypertension
- Diabetes
- CHD
- Stroke/TIA
- Epilepsy
To list any existing register entries from the navigation pane of a patient record, select Disease Registers to display a chronological list under the Filtered tab.
Note - The thyroid disease register was removed in DLM 186 and Thyroid disease records placed in Superseded Records at the bottom of the navigation pane.
