1. | case stats/reports Posted by nursenelson on 6/13/2019 10:49:02 AM Does the moderator or anyone know if there is a way to query for clients who have had multiple cases? |
2. | ultrasound equipment Posted by nursenelson on 11/27/2018 1:04:11 PM Are there any Alpinion ultrasound users out there? If so what kind of disinfectant are you using for your vaginal probe? Has anyone had any issues with Cidex OPA discoloring the probe? |
3. | ultrasound reader Posted by nursenelson on 1/23/2017 10:52:33 AM I know that in a lot of centers the Medical Director is usually someone in OB practice and reads the scans that are done there. Would like to get some feedback from other centers, if that is not the situation at your center and someone else reads your scans, who/what type of physician reads them. Thanks for input. |
4. | ultrasound equipment Posted by nursenelson on 7/25/2016 2:55:56 PM For any centers doing limited OB ultrasound who have purchased new ultrasound equipment in the last 3-5 years, what manufacturer, why and pros/cons? Any recommendations? |
5. | Medical tab Posted by nursenelson on 8/28/2017 8:17:18 AM Shouldn't the pregnancy test form be listed under the medical tab? That would put everything in one place for the doc when they go in to read scans. |
6. | Re: Ongoing Volunteer Training Posted by nursenelson on 3/17/2016 2:04:02 PM We use the CareNet DVD training through Light University called Light University, called Crisis Pregnancy 101 & 201 |
7. | patient documentation Posted by nursenelson on 3/17/2016 2:19:09 PM Do other centers using Ekyros just have the EMR or do they print out what's been documented & put in a paper chart? Do you print out ultrasound images with a paper report form or just have the electronic version?
Thanks. |
8. | ultrasound training Posted by nursenelson on 3/17/2016 2:14:50 PM We are looking at training some new medical staff members. My original ultrasound training was through Nifla then Sonography Now. We are basically looking at 3 providers to make a choice- Innovative Imaging Technology, Sound Wave Images & Soundview Imaging and trying to compare with costs, requirements, etc. but think either would be fine. Looking for input from other centers who have used one or more of these three and comments about their opinion and experience. We have quite a bit of ... |
9. | Re: TB testing Posted by nursenelson on 4/28/2015 1:57:15 PM Do other centers do TB testing for all staff members, including client advocates or just the medical staff? |
10. | TB testing Posted by nursenelson on 3/11/2013 11:45:44 AM Are other centers requiring staff that have patient contact to have annual TB testing- yes or no? Are other centers providing that testing themselves? Or are other centers asking staff to get their own testing done with a provider? |
11. | Re: Using Non Nurses for pregnancy tests. Posted by nursenelson on 4/28/2015 1:54:49 PM Our center utilizes self-testing when when the nurse is not scheduled and the client does not want to wait and schedule an appointment. |
12. | ultrasound policy Posted by nursenelson on 1/22/2015 10:19:09 AM What time frame/limit do other centers have for performing ultrasounds, such as through second trimester, not past so many weeks, etc.? |
13. | Re: ultrasound policy Posted by nursenelson on 1/27/2015 10:16:55 AM We currently do 1st & 2nd trimester but I think some centers have a limit on how far they go in 2nd trimester. |
14. | medical record Posted by nursenelson on 12/2/2014 9:32:21 AM I was wondering what other centers are doing with the functionality we now have in EKyros are you keeping a paper client file as well as electronic, or a combination of the two? If you are still keeping a paper record do you print everything out from EKros as well? |
15. | October update- physician sign off Posted by nursenelson on 10/16/2014 2:48:22 PM I watched the info for the newest release and noted that only the person designated as the Medical Director can sign off on an ultrasound report. That won't work for us as our medical director does not read our scans, another OB physician consultant does so how will you address that? Are there other appropriate designated titles that can be assigned in administration? |
16. | Re: October update- physician sign off Posted by nursenelson on 10/20/2014 8:54:36 AM I understand the role thing, but how is that affected when viewing the medical record? Does it give the impression that the person interpreting the scan is the medical director? Can other medical staff roles not be assigned, such as consultant, etc.?
Thanks |
17. | discharge summary Posted by nursenelson on 3/21/2013 2:27:17 PM I was wondering what type of discharge summary other centers are using (such as the NIFLA format) and with what type of info on it?
Thanks |
