Investigations
The investigations view shows all lab investigations ordered for this BHT as PatientInvestigation records. Each record shows:
- Investigation name
- Ordered date
- Result values (when reported)
- Reference ranges
- Interpretation (normal / abnormal)
Results are read from the LIMS module and displayed inline on the inpatient dashboard without requiring staff to switch to the lab module.
Clinical Images
The images page allows clinical photographs and other image files to be attached to the admission record. Images are stored as ClinicalFindingValue records with clinicalFindingValueType = PatientImage and are rendered using PrimeFaces p:graphicImage. Uploaded images can be:
- Captured via webcam (PrimeFaces
p:imageCropper/ camera capture) - Uploaded from disk
Each image record can carry a description note.
Drug Chart
The drug chart page (clinical_data_drug_chart.xhtml) shows all medications for the BHT in a consolidated chart view, including:
- Ward medications (inpatient prescriptions)
- Pharmacy issues (dispensing records)
This gives a complete picture of what was ordered versus what was actually dispensed.
Diagnosis Card
The diagnosis card (clinical_data_diagnosis_card.xhtml) is a printable summary document for the inpatient episode. It is generated from a configurable Document Template and supports dynamic placeholders:
