L Dxs table

L_Dxs is the data structure where patients' diagnoses are stored.

a table in each copy of the CCMDB.mdb

Contents of L_Dxs

L_Dxs is populated with diagnoses from the S AllDiagnoses table. The diagnoses are sttructured in a system of main- and sub-diagnoses. Which diagnoses end up on the list is determined by the steering committee.

Because our main repository TMSX is not relational, it is limited to 6 admit diagnoses and 9 complications per patient. L_DXs contains a field "priority" which is for ranking of the comorbids to decide which will be sent.

Due to limitations to our technology, we also store the data for Patient Task Tracking among our diagnoses because the data structure was set up to accept them.
