Pay close attention to Order, ID, Label, UOR, Data Type, Size, and Lists. Options are used if you want to get fancy with your forms. In regards to UOR, if "Required" is chosen for an item, that field must be populated before the note is saved. If you don't want to be "nagged" by the form, choose Optional.  
A preliminary step requires identification of the forms in Administration/Lists/Layout-Based Visit Forms. Here is an example.

The size of the Textbox or Textarea if less than 50 is fairly easy to manipulate.  If greater than 50, trial and error will render a nice and neat layout. The values supplied are merely jumping off points because the graphics on your device will be different and therefore the values that you will use need to be customized.


Label Columns and Data Columns are a bit more difficult to understand. Even though it is possible to put 4 columns into each form, only 2 will fit if large Textboxes and Textareas are deployed. Start off by using 1, 1 for the left most field on a particular line and use 0, 0 for the three subsequent fields in this line. To fit all 4 fields into the perimeter of the form, the composite size of the fields must be adjusted.  To achieve symmetry, trial and error is required. If a field needs to occupy an entire line, use 1, 3.  
Pay close attention to Order, ID, Label, UOR, Data Type, Size, and Lists.  


Some of the screenshots had to be divided into smaller images with overlaps because one screenshot could not contain the entire image. The first screenshot  depict the top of the form while the following screenshot will display the balance.
Options are used if you want to get fancy with your forms.  


Changing the order of each item for a LBV Form and editing are self-explanatory.
In regards to UOR, if "Required" is chosen for an item, that Field must be populated before the note is saved. If you don't want to be "nagged" by the form, choose "Optional". If a particular field needs to be hidden, choose "Unused" instead of deleting it.  Should the field be required at a future date, the Field could be readily put back into service.  If deleted, the Field would have to be reconstructed.


After saving the configuration of all the LBV Forms, a blue tab will appear (it's magic, isn't it?) to the right of the "Administrative" tab for a particular encounter and it will have the label "Layout Based". Click the drop down menu to select the specific form.

Label Columns and Data Columns are a bit more difficult to understand. Even though it is possible to put 9 Fields into a single line, only 2 will fit if large Textboxes and Textareas are deployed. Start off by using 0, 0 for the left most Field on a particular line and use 0, 0 for subsequent Fields in this line. To achieve symmetry, trial and error is required. If a Field needs to occupy an entire line, use 1, 3.

INTRODUCTION

Ophthalmologists don't use SOAP notes and thus the Layout Based Visit Forms serve this community very well. The specialized LBV Form, NationNotes, are particularly helpful to incorporate scanned images such as hand drawings or copies of Perimetry. They are equally useful for the construction of clinical notes which minimizes key strokes.

The majority of the forms are intended for colleagues who are comfortable typing their entries in the medical record.

Colleagues, who were never taught touch typing while in high school, will find the last form with NationNotes and Listboxes better suited to their needs.

A preliminary step requires identification of the forms in Administration/Lists/Layout-Based Visit Forms. Here is an example. Lo20a.png


Pay close attention to Order, ID, Label, UOR, Data Type, Size, and Lists.

Options are used if you want to get fancy with your forms.

In regards to UOR, if "Required" is chosen for an item, that Field must be populated before the note is saved. If you don't want to be "nagged" by the form, choose "Optional". If a particular field needs to be hidden, choose "Unused" instead of deleting it. Should the field be required at a future date, the Field could be readily put back into service. If deleted, the Field would have to be reconstructed.

The size of the Textbox or Textarea, if less than 50 characters/spaces, is fairly easy to manipulate. If greater than 50, trial and error will render a nice and neat layout. The values supplied are merely jumping off points because the graphics on your device will be different and therefore the values that you will use need to be customized.

Label Columns and Data Columns are a bit more difficult to understand. Even though it is possible to put 9 Fields into a single line, only 2 will fit if large Textboxes and Textareas are deployed. Start off by using 0, 0 for the left most Field on a particular line and use 0, 0 for subsequent Fields in this line. To achieve symmetry, trial and error is required. If a Field needs to occupy an entire line, use 1, 3.

Some of the screenshots had to be divided because one screenshot could not contain the entire image. The first screenshot depicts the top of the form while the following screenshot will display the balance.

Changing the order of each Field in a LBV Form and editing are self-explanatory.

After creating the list of forms, another tab will appear (it's magic, isn't it?) to the right of the "Administrative" tab for a particular encounter and it will have the label "Layout Based". Click the drop down menu to select the specific form.

The Demo provides a safe environment to hone your skills before actual implementation of the Layout Based Value Form.

If time is a scarce commodity, proceed directly to Section 12.1 of this article. Importation of all the forms will take about 15 minutes in toto, provided that the instructions are observed meticulously.

This form provides entry for 2 scanned images using NationNotes. The image must be scanned first and uploaded to the "Documents" module of the Patient Summary screen. Right click on the image to copy it. Click within the body of the NationNote, paste (Ctrl + v) the image and save it in the NationNote.

This form can be used separately or in conjunction with another form such as the Intermediate Ophthalmic Exam. If you have only 1 image for a particular encounter, the unused NationNote will disappear.

To avoid the appearance of medical-legal impropriety and alteration ("spoliation") of the medical record, this form can be used to correct or expand upon a prior note. Ill fig 1.png

COMPREHENSIVE OPHTHALMIC EXAM FOR THE NON-TYPIST

This form is analogous to the Comprehensive Ophthalmic Exam above.

History

Form and Components

With exception of the field for the time, the other fields are constructed with NationNotes and stock phrases or Components. Clicking one of these phrases will transfer it into the body of the WYSIWYG editor. Editing of the Components is quite simple as well as their addition or deletion. Free text can be entered in the body of the editor.

Building the Sample NationNotes Form and this video tutorial are two great resources to understanding the many features of this editor.

OTHER NON-TYPIST FORMS

Other forms requiring minimal typing can be constructed with portions of the the last form in this article.


SHORTCUT

That wasn't so bad, was it? This exercise requires patience and perseverance, not a ton of heavy duty cogitation. Now that you know how to construct a Layout Based Visit Form, go roll your own and impress your friends!

Import

If your friends are well acquainted with your many fine attributes and there is no need to impress them, the NT Eye form with the Components and Lists and the 8 Eye forms can be imported with the files listed below:

  1. components.zip
  2. list options.zip
  3. nt eye form.zip
  4. 8 eye forms.zip


Try it on a test copy of OpenEMR before touching your own data.


Backup all your data before importing!

The result of the importation should render 9 Ophthalmic forms, 20 sets of Components and 6 sets of Lists. Go to the Layout Based tab of the encounter, click the desired form and record your History and Physical.

Missing Custom Buttons and Components

If the Custom Buttons are missing, they will have to be rebuilt by clicking Add Buttons and using this dialog. AC6.PNG


If the Components don't appear automatically, they need to be coaxed into appearing. Go to the NT form, click each field to bring up the WYSIWYG editor and click Personalize on the bottom left. Rebuild the Custom Buttons before working on the Components. If the Components have been brought back into view, adding Custom Buttons will cause them to go into hiding again, therefore do the Custom Buttons first. AC7.PNG


Move the desired Category to the box on the right and Save. AC2.PNG


Exit both the dialog box and the editor. Go back to the field, bring up the editor again to ensure that the Components are present by clicking Select Category and the specific item. AC8.PNG AC9.PNG
