Objective

Record the data of a medical study in its capture phase: identification, type, macroscopic, microscopic, morphological values, etc.

Before starting

  • Have the patient registered.
  • Have the study types catalog configured.
  • Have MEDICAL_CAPTURE: WRITE.

Step by step

  1. Enter the Study capture module from the side menu.
  2. The screen opens in the Capture tab.
  3. To start a new study, select the patient (use the search engine if not visible).
  4. Choose the study type (seminogram, fragmentation, etc.).
  5. Enter the data requested in the specific dialog of the study type. The fields change according to the type:
    • Seminogram: macroscopic, microscopic, morphological, other cells.
    • Fragmentation: fragmentation index, method, observations.
    • Insemination: donor, technique, date.
    • Freezing: samples, method, destination tank.
    • Unfreezing: source sample, date, technique.
    • Papanicolaou: cells, observations.
    • Colposcopy: findings, biopsy, observations.
  6. Attach images if the study requires it (using the image cropper).
  7. Review the capture.
  8. Click Save.

Expected result

  • The study is in Capture status and appears in the Capture tab.
  • The system shows a success message.
  • The study is ready to move to interpretation when the data is complete.

Operational recommendations

  • Capture all relevant data in a single session to avoid duplication or loss of information.
  • If the study requires a survey, send the link to the patient before continuing.

Relation with other modules

  • Patients: the study is associated with the patient.
  • Gamete bank: freezing, unfreezing and insemination studies interact with the bank.
  • Prescriptions: when moving to interpretation, a related prescription can be generated.
