This video provides an introduction to the search and report tools in EMIS Web. Using the example of a Hypertension audit it explains the use of Search, Aggregate Report and List Report tools.
This is the first in a series of videos providing a course in Basic Searches and Reports.
In this session I cover the changes to the access controls in version 5.8 and later and how they can be used to deliver better, safer online access to patient records.
I also introduce changes to the online visibility and proxy access capabilities which the NUG has been involved in developing which are coming in imminent releases of EMIS Web
A Protocol Alert for the QCancer risk score has been distributed in EMIS Web. This is inactive until the practice activates it. This video will show you how.
EMIS Web has the capability to run a number of calculations against a search population. This video shows how to add the QCancer risk score to a group of patients as a batch process.
It is possible in EMIS Web to batch run a calculation against a group of patients within EMIS Web. This video shows how to batch run the QDScore or QRisk against a search population. The same process can now be used for the other QResearch risk scores: Qfracture, QStroke and QCancer.
Working with QResearch and Macmillan Cancer Support EMIS have included the QCancer Symptom Checker in EMIS Web. This tool enables an assessment of the risk that a patient currently has a cancer when seen.
The University of Nottingham manages two important programmes: QResearch and QSurveillance. QResearch uses an extract of coded, pseudonimised data for research (producing tools like QRisk), while QSurveillance uses anonymous aggregate data for disease surveillance (for example the rates of flu-like illness).
More details fo these programmes are available at QResearch and QSurveillance
To participate in these programmes the practice needs to activate the respective data sharing agreements within EMIS Web as shown in this video.
If a patient is on a regular prescription for a drug the a set of prescriptions can be issued for the pharmacy to cover until the next planned review. This is less trouble for the patient (they don't have to phone/fax/post a request. It is also less trouble for the practice where there is no need for a clerk to issue and a doctor to sign. This article covers the essentials, and the pitfalls of getting going with Repeat Dispensing and EPSr2
