Lab Downloading start/stop dates

Legacy - as of Oct 10.14 - HSC moved over to EPR and download no longer available.

I just had confirmation from DJ Berania at eHealth that our current Lab Downloader for HSC will quit working once HSC moves to EPR on October 12, 2014. I believe the scheduled date for that is sometime in October 2014. If the lab downloading that Allan is working on doesn’t get set up before then we will need an alternate way to get this data at HSC. Most likely option is to get the HSC ICU data collector to start collecting the additional 10 lab test as done in all the other ICU in Region.p:Tina Tenbergen/ Trish Ostryzniuk 11:47, 2014 June 2 (CDT)

• HSC-ICU collectors started collecting additional 10 items on Labs collected list for:
  • all new admissions starting August 1.14.
    • There were 4 patients that were admitted prior to this date. Gail and Joyce will go back retrospectively to admit date and count additional labs from the admit date. No more lab downloads to be done as of Oct 10.14. Trish Ostryzniuk 17:02, 2014 October 14 (CDT)
• HSC_IICU-35042 admit May 7.4
• HSC_IICU-18357 admit May 30
• HSC_IICU-18570 admit July 12
• HSC_MICU-35502 admit July 24.14

Lab Download dates at HSC

• ICU - started admissions between 1993 and ended July 31, 2014
  • NOTE: HSC is moving to new interface to download and current interface will not work very soon. Also the ICU/Med Program has moved over to a new centralized repository that has been in place and working since May 20.14. Labs is the last hook in with old repository that must be removed so tie to old system is completely severed. Lab items downloaded for HSC ICU will be collected manually. See Labs collected list & L_Labs_Flowsheet.

• MEDICINE - started January 1, 2006 and ended June 30, 2012

Lab Download STOP date for HSC Medicine

ended June 30, 2012.

• Will continue for those admitted PRIOR to July 1 until they are discharged.

Lab download program change dates at HSC

• From June 1988 to late 1993, all lab test were manually counted from charts or computer screen from old OER (Order Entry/Results Reporting System).

• OER changed to RTS (Results Reporting System) March 26, 2002.

• Blood gas downloading (AO2) started May 3, 2004.
  • sometimes in 2013 or 2014 no longer available in RTS when ABG systems update. Allan Garland mentioned it at at Task meeting.

• Interfacing with the new DELPHIC Results Reporting System (RTS) started:
  • March 6, 2006 @ 0700 hours for Chemistry and Hematology
  • March 27, 2007 @ 0800 hours for Microbiology

• The HSC lab 1993 lab extractor program was written by Wes Brown and Vance McFadden from computer services here at HSC.
• The program was rewritten by Eric Brusse, when HSC changed from OER to RTS March 26, 2002. At the time Eric apparently put together a some sort of powerhouse screen to perform a similar function against the new RTS.
• Eric also had to rewrite some of the program again in March 2006 when HSC changed to the new DELPHIC lab system.
