Add or Modify Condition Groups

The Condition Groups dialog allows you to map individual procedures and results to specific group, thereby offering you the ability to combine procedures and/or results that are duplicates, or have different descriptions or naming conventions, but represent the same procedure, result, or test, into a single group. Use the following steps to add or modify condition groups.

1. Click Edit > System Tables > Conditions > Condition Groups to access the Condition Groups dialog.
    

2. In the Procedure and Results section of the Condition Groups dialog, you have the ability to search for specific procedures, results, or procedures and results, to select and move into an existing or new group. To search for procedures and/or results, select the applicable Search Column and Search Type, and then type into the Search field. The system will return any procedures and results that match that description typed in the Search field for the Search Column and Search Type selected.
   
   NOTE: When the procedures and results are displayed, any Unit of Measure or LOINC Code that was configured for the condition, as well as the last modified Date will be displayed in the corresponding columns.
   
   NOTE:  Once a procedure or result has been added to a group it will no longer be displayed in the Procedure and Results list. Also, a condition can only belong to one group.
    

3. Once the applicable procedures and/or results have been located, highlight the procedures and/or results you want to add to a group.
    

4. In the Condition Group section, you can search for a specific group, as well as add, edit, and delete groups as needed. Likewise, you can check the Expand All option to display all procedure/results for each group.
   
   To search for a group, select the applicable Search Column and Search Type, and then type into the Search field. The system will return any groups that match that description typed in the Search field for the Search Column and Search Type selected.
   
   To add a new group, click the Add Group button, enter the Condition Group Name in the Add Condition Group dialog, and then click the OK button.
   
   To edit a group, highlight the Group you want to edit, click the Edit Group button, modify the Condition Group Name in the Add Condition Group dialog, and then click the OK button.
   
   To delete a group, highlight the Group you want to delete, click the Remove Group button, and then click the OK button in the Delete Condition Group dialog.
   
   
   
    

5. Once the applicable procedures/results have been highlighted in the Procedures and Results list, and the group has been highlighted in the Condition Group list, click the > button to add those procedures/results to the group.
   
   After procedures/results have been added to a group, you have the ability to remove a procedure/result from a group by highlighting the applicable procedure/result in under the group, and then clicking the < button.
    

6. After the procedures and results have been moved, click the Apply button.
