The program opens with a catalogue, not an empty list. There are 101 tests, 216 parameters and 18 departments. A laboratory can change a price or a range, and can add a test, on the Test catalogue screen. The numbers below are that opening list.
Where the tests sit
- Hematology has 11 tests, including CBC, ESR, the peripheral smear and blood group.
- Biochemistry has 25 tests. LFT, KFT and the lipid profile are the ones booked most often. Single tests such as SGPT, creatinine and cholesterol are in the same department.
- Hormones has 12 tests.
- Diabetes has 8 tests.
- Immunology has 6 tests.
- Serology has 5 tests.
- Tumor markers has 5 tests.
- Microbiology has 5 tests.
- Coagulation has 4 tests.
- Cardiac markers has 4 tests.
- Vitamins has 3 tests.
- Infectious disease has 3 tests.
- Urine examination has 3 tests.
- Stool examination has 2 tests.
- Cytology has 2 tests.
- Electrolytes has 1 panel.
- Clinical pathology has semen analysis.
- Allergy has total IgE.
Histopathology is not in this opening list. If a laboratory does that work, it adds the test itself.
What the report does with any of these
Book order stores the patient’s age and sex. Result entry shows the range that matches that patient. A value outside the range is marked. Only parameters that have a value are printed. The page is an A4 PDF. Clinical notes, when someone types them, print with a line that they are for clinical correlation and are not a diagnosis.
The opening prices in these notes are the catalogue defaults, in rupees. They are not a fee charged by Webforest Digital, and they are not what a patient must pay. Change them before the first bill.
