Search and extract fields to include

[michaeledwardmarks]

Some comments on the way choosing fields to search on currently works.

Would want to be able to search and extract by: Tags - e.g patients currently or ever tagged Tropical etc etc Microbiology Input/Clinical advice - the four checkboxes from that field (Clinical Advice given, infection control advice, change in antibiotics, referred to OPAT)

Not sure what is going on: Microbiology has a bunch of weird things in it - I guess specific subfields that occur in certain tests. Personally at the moment I think the subfield to be able to search/extract by should be: Test Details Microscopy Organism

I think all the subsections of this particular field are not needed.

not entirely sure what you mean by "not needed" - do you mean not needed to be entered on elCID or not needed to be searched for or not needed to be extracted?

Tricky to make that call now without having a specific question in mind. the 4 categories listed don't include serology results, which might be a very good way indeed to identify certain diagnoses.

I mean not needed to be searched for. I think in investigations people are much more likely to search by Test: e.g Hepatitis A as opposed to by subclass of Immunoglobulin e.g IgG (which will bring up anyone who had a positive IgG for anything!)

So I envisage you search for: Test = Hepatitis A and it then extracts all the components of that result

Fine, happy with that. Agree that no need to search for all the results of all the tests - just search by test (or the fields entered above) and then let it pull the results down with it, for you to then do what you like with the individual IgG, IgM results, etc...

Cool.
