      DESCRIPTION:   
       This patch will prevent a null subscript error from occurring when using
         Solution: The code has been changed to use a FileMan DIC call to
           and select the package 'LA*5.2*44'.  When prompted 'Want to
           DISABLE Scheduled Options, Menu Options, and Protocols? YES//',
           choose 'NO'. KIDS will disable the appropriate option during the
           install (see note above).
       
       8.  On a mapped system, rebuild your map set.
       
       9.  Routine LA44 can be deleted after successful patch installation.

       INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
       -------------------------
       The patch is distributed in KIDS format in a PackMan message.
       
       
       The install time for this patch is less than 2 minutes. This patch
       can be installed when Laboratory users are on the system.
       However the following conditions apply:
       
          -Users should not be using option LEDI Setup [LA7V SETUP].
           The LEDI Setup [LA7V SETUP] option will be placed out of service
           during this install.
       
       Patch installation needs to be coordinated with the Laboratory
       Information Manager (LIM/ADPAC).
       1. Problem: A null subscript error was occurring at VER+3 in routine
       
       If the routine LA7VSTP is a mapped routine, appropriate action should be
       taken to disable the mapped routine at the beginning of the patch
       installation process and to insure proper updating of mapped routines
       afterward.  Also, if the routine LA7VSTP resides in multiple locations
       within the system configuration, all routine directories should be updated
       appropriately.
       
       NOTE: MailMan and KERNEL patches must be current on the target system to
             avoid problems loading and/or installing this patch.
                   LA7VSTP because the software was not properly quitting when
      
       NOTE: This KIDS install places the option LEDI Setup [LA7V SETUP]
             out of service during the install. The option is not added or
             changed by this patch. If KIDS prompts:
       
             "Want KIDS to Rebuild Menu Trees Upon Completion of
              Install? YES// NO"
       
             The site can answer "NO" if they choose since the option
             is unchanged.
                   checking for the existence of an entry in HL7 MESSAGE TYPE
       
             Additionally, if performing the KIDS Compare option, KIDS will
             report that this option is being changed. This is a false
             message since the option is only being disabled during the
             install by KIDS. It is included in the KIDS build only for the
             purpose of being disabled during the install by KIDS.
       
       
       1.  If any of the above routines are mapped, disable mapping for them.
       
                   file (#771.2).
       2.  Use the 'INSTALL/CHECK MESSAGE' option of the PackMan menu.  This
           option will load the KIDS patch onto your system.
       
       3.  The patch has now been loaded into a Transport global on your
           system.  You now need to use KIDS to install the transport global.
       
       4.  On the 'Kernel Installation & Distribution System' Menu (KIDS),
           select the 'Installation' menu.
       
       5.  Use the 'Verify Checksum in Transport Global' option and verify that
       
           all routines have the correct checksums.
       
       6.  If you wish to preserve a copy of the routines exported in this patch
           prior to installation, you should use the 'Backup a Transport Global'
           option at this time.  You may also compare the routine in your
           production account to the routine in the patch by using the 'Compare
           a Transport Global to Current System' option (see note above).
           These options can both be found under the 'Installation' menu.
       
       7.  Use the 'Install Package(s)' option under the 'Installation' menu

       INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
       -------------------------
       The install time for this patch is less than 2 minutes if menus are not
       rebuilt. If menus are rebuilt then install time on a heavily used system
                If a new page is started because of a change in shipping
       will be approximately 25 minutes. This patch can be installed when
       Laboratory users are on the system.
      
       However the following conditions apply:
       
          - Printing of a Laboratory shipping manifest should not be occurring.
            The option Print Shipping Manifest [LA7S MANIFEST PRINT] will be
            disabled during the install by the KIDS build.
       
            Patch installation needs to be coordinated with the Laboratory
                condition or container and the last patient on the previous
            Information Manager (LIM/ADPAC).
       
       NOTE: MailMan and KERNEL patches must be current on the target system to
             avoid problems loading and/or installing this patch.
       
       
       
       1.  If any of the above routines are mapped, disable mapping for them.
       
       2.  Use the 'INSTALL/CHECK MESSAGE' option of the PackMan menu.  This
                and current page are the same, the patient demographics would
           option will load the KIDS patch onto your system.
       
       3.  The patch has now been loaded into a Transport global on your
           system.  You now need to use KIDS to install the transport global.
       
       4.  On the 'Kernel Installation & Distribution System' Menu (KIDS),
           select the 'Installation' menu.
       
       5.  Use the 'Verify Checksum in Transport Global' option and verify that
           all routines have the correct checksums.
                not print on the current page.
       
       6.  If you wish to preserve a copy of the routines exported in this patch
           prior to installation, you should use the 'Backup a Transport Global'
           option at this time.  You may also compare the routine in your
           production account to the routine in the patch by using the 'Compare
           a Transport Global to Current System' option.  These options can
           both be found under the 'Installation' menu.
       
       7.  Use the 'Install Package(s)' option under the 'Installation' menu
           and select the package 'LA*5.2*45'.  When prompted 'Want to
       
           DISABLE Scheduled Options, Menu Options, and Protocols? YES//',
           choose 'NO'.
       
       8.  On a mapped system, rebuild your map set.
       
       9.  Routine LA45 can be deleted after successful patch installation.

      Patch Description: 
      This is the companion patch for LR*5.2*221. Full description of ALL
      enhancements are given in LR*5.2*221.  
        
      This patch support the ability to purge Automated Instrument data based on
       
      date range or inactivity range. This enhancement is to support Laboratory 
      Electronic Data Interchange (LEDI) sites ability to purge automated
      May 10, 1999
      instrument data based on user's supplied parameters.  
       
      The functionality of this patch is coupled with the features and function
      of patch LR*5.2*221. LA*5.2*47 is required for LR*5.2*221 installation.
      The functionality of the patch is expressed after patch LR*5.2*221 has
      been installed.
       
      ONLY THE ROUTINE 'LAGEN' IS CONTAINED IN THIS PATCH. All other LR*
      associated name spaced routines and options are contained in LR*5.2*221.
      The following options are transported and installed by LR*5.2*221.
       
       
      The 'Clear instrument/worklist data' [LRINSTCLR] option has been enhanced.
      The changes to this option implements selective clearing of instrument
      data from the ^LAH global. When entries are made in the ^LAH global to
      store instrument data pending verification, the date/time stamp of
      creation and result updating is now recorded. This date will be used to
      selectively remove data from the ^LAH global based on the date original
      result was received or last updated.
          If during the clearing process an entry in ^LAH global is found with
      no date/time in the creation/update field, the current date/time is
      VISTA Laboratory Package patch LA*5.2*47 contains no changes to software
      entered into the entry. This entry is then eligible for clearing the next
      time the option is ran.
       
       
       The 'Clear instrument/worklist data' option will allow clearing by either
      of the following ways. Data received before the selected date (optional
      time) is purged. If you enter a date only then data received before that
      date is cleared. If you enter a date/time then data received before that
      date/time is cleared.
       
      controlled by VHA DIRECTIVE 97-033, titled VISTA BLOOD BANK SOFTWARE
       Example:
      If you enter Sept 4, 1998 then data received through Sept 3, 1998 is
      cleared. If you enter Sept 4, 1998 @1200 then data through Sept 4, 1998 is
      cleared.
       
       The following routines support purge enhancement:
         LAGEN [LA*5.2*47]- Changes were made to set date/time of entry creation
      and last update. Last update can be different than creation date if data
      is retransmitted (overlay data = yes) or additional results received.
       
      VERSION 5.2.
         LRLLS [LR*5.2*221]- Clear instrument data option that does actual
      clearing based on user's parameters. User can purge by date/time or
      blanket purge when using Clear instrument/worklist data [LRINSTCLR]
      option.
       
         LRVR1 [LR*5.2*221]-  Verifying routine with changes to setup date/time
      information when manual data entry is used during Enter/Verify Automated
      Instrument [LRVR] option.
       
         LRVRW [LR*5.2*221]-  Verifying routine with changes to setup date/time
       
      information when load/work list data entry is used during the Enter/verify
      data (Work list) [LRVRW] option.

      DESCRIPTION:   
      VISTA Laboratory Package patch LA*5.2*51 contains no changes to software
       
           - All Lab LEDI (LA7V*) related HL v1.6 LLPs should be shutdown.
             These LLPs are name spaced LA7V* when viewed in the HL package
             Systems Link Monitor [HL MESSAGE MONITOR] option.
       
       
      NOTE: Kernel, MailMan and HL patches must be current on the target system
            to avoid problems loading and/or installing this patch.
       
            Patch installation needs to be coordinated with the Laboratory
            Information Manager (LIM/ADPAC).
      With the release of patch HL*1.6*57 several changes need to be made to the
       
       
        1.  If any of the above routines are mapped, disable mapping for them.
       
        2.  Use the 'INSTALL/CHECK MESSAGE' option of the PackMan menu.  This
            option will load the KIDS patch onto your system.
       
        3.  The patch has now been loaded into a Transport global on your
            system.  You now need to use KIDS to install the transport global.
       
      Lab LEDI Setup [LA7V SETUP] option. Patch LA*5.2*51 will make the following
        4.  On the 'Kernel Installation & Distribution System' Menu (KIDS),
            select the 'Installation' menu.
       
        5.  Use the 'Verify Checksum in Transport Global' option and verify that
            all routines have the correct checksums.
       
        6.  On the KIDS menu, under the 'Installation' menu, use the following
            options:
              Print Transport Global
              Compare Transport Global to Current System
      changes to allow Lab LEDI HL7 interfaces to continue to function.
              Backup a Transport Global
       
            If you wish to preserve a copy of the routines exported in this patch
            prior to installation, you should use the 'Backup a Transport Global'
            option at this time.  You may also compare the routines in your
            production account to the routines in the patch by using the 'Compare
            a Transport Global to Current System' option.
       
        7.  Perform the following step if applicable:
       
       
            All Lab LEDI (LA7V*) related HL v1.6 LLPs should be shutdown.
            Use Start/Stop Links [HL START] option to shutdown these LLPs if
            they are running.
         
        8.  Use the 'Install Package(s)' option under the 'Installation' menu
            and select the package 'LA*5.2*51'.  When prompted 'Want to
            DISABLE Scheduled Options, Menu Options, and Protocols? YES//',
            choose 'YES'.
       
            Disable the LEDI Setup [LA7V LEDI] option by having KIDS mark the
       1. The patch removes references to HL LOWER LEVEL PROTOCOL PARAMETER file
            option 'Out Of Order'.
       
        9.  On a mapped system, rebuild your map set.
       
       10.  Routine LA51 will be deleted after successful patch installation.
      
      
      Post-Installation Instructions:

      INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
      =========================
       
        The install time for this patch is less than 5 minutes. This patch
        can be installed when Laboratory users are on the system.
        Suggested time to install: non-peak requirement hours.
        However the following conditions apply:
       
      ===========
           - All Laboratory test verification should be suspended. The install
             will disable lab verifying options during installation.
       
       
      NOTE: Kernel, MailMan and HL7 patches must be current on the target system
            to avoid problems loading and/or installing this patch.
       
            Patch installation needs to be coordinated with the Laboratory
            Information Manager (LIM/ADPAC).
       
      
       
        1.  If any of the above routines are mapped, disable mapping for them.
       
        2.  Use the 'INSTALL/CHECK MESSAGE' option of the PackMan menu.  This
            option will load the KIDS patch onto your system.
       
        3.  The patch has now been loaded into a Transport global on your
            system.  You now need to use KIDS to install the transport global.
       
        4.  On the 'Kernel Installation & Distribution System' Menu (KIDS),
      When the Lab LEDI software needs to build a HL7 message to return lab 
            select the 'Installation' menu.
       
        5.  Use the 'Verify Checksum in Transport Global' option and verify that
            all routines have the correct checksums.
       
        6.  On the KIDS menu, under the 'Installation' menu, use the following
            options:
              Print Transport Global
              Compare Transport Global to Current System
              Backup a Transport Global
      test results (ORU) to the collecting facility, the message building could
       
            If you wish to preserve a copy of the routines exported in this patch
            prior to installation, you should use the 'Backup a Transport Global'
            option at this time.  You may also compare the routines in your
            production account to the routines in the patch by using the 'Compare
            a Transport Global to Current System' option.
          
        7.  The install will disable the following Lab verifying options during
            patch installation.

      The interface messages are based on ward location and passed to an
      interface engine.  When Lab results are verified and the requesting ward
      is identified as having a supported entry in the new CareVue Foreign
      Interface file #62.487, the lab results are forwarded, via HL7, to the
      interface engine and then on to the CareVue Clinical Information
      Management System.
       
      Each facility will need to refer to the CareVue Interface Specifications
      manual LA7DIS.PDF as noted above for further requirements regarding
      interface engines.
      This patch REQUIRES that patch LR*5.2*254 be installed in order for the
       
      INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
      ==========================
      The patch is distributed in KIDS format in a PackMan message.
      It is recommended that this patch be installed in a test environment first
      before installing into production.  Each environment (test and production)
      uses a separate database and a separate integration interface.  Because of
      this the data that is communicated from VistA may not always be consistent
      with the data that will be communicated from the production environment.
      Another impact is that patient data may have to be manually entered into
      CareVue interface to work properly.
      the VistA test environment in order to test the proper handling of
      messages going to VistA.
       
      The install time for this patch is less than 2 minutes. This patch can be
      installed when Laboratory users are on the system.
       
      1.    All routines installed with this patch are new to the system and 
            mapping is not recommended.
       
      2.    Use the 'INSTALL/CHECK MESSAGE' option of the PackMan menu.      
       
            This option will load the KIDS patch onto your system.
       
      3.    The patch has now been loaded into a Transport global on your   
            system. You now need to use KIDS to install the transport 
            global.
       
             On the KIDS menu, under the 'Installation' menu, use the
             following options:
                 Print Transport Global
                 Compare Transport Global to Current System
      An interface engine must exist to connect CareVue (or other clinical
                 Verify Checksums in Transport Global
                 Backup a Transport Global
       
      4.    Use the 'Install Package(s)' option under the 'Installation' men
            and select the package 'LA*5.2*53'.  When prompted 'Want to 
            DISABLE Scheduled Options, Menu Options, and Protocols? YES//',  
            choose 'NO'.
       
      5.    At the DEVICE prompt, you can send your output to any printer of
            HFS file, display it on the terminal screen, or queue it to run 
      system) and Vista using TCP/IP and HL7 messages.  Three possible contacts
            at a scheduled time.
       
      6.    No options need to be placed out of service.
       
      7.    This installation automatically adds the two new protocols to 
            the PROTOCOL file (#101). They are:  LA7D CARELIFE RESULTS
                                                 LA7D CARELIFE SERVER
       
      8.    User will need to enter your facility name in the HL7 
            APPPLICATION PARAMETER file (#771).

      INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
      =========================
       
        The install time for this patch is less than 5 minutes. This patch
        can be installed when Laboratory users are on the system.
      ===========
        Suggested time to install: non-peak requirement hours.
        However the following conditions apply:
       
           - The install will disable LEDI Setup option during installation.
       
       
      NOTE: Kernel and MailMan patches must be current on the target system
            to avoid problems loading and/or installing this patch.
       
            Patch installation needs to be coordinated with the Laboratory
       
            Information Manager (LIM/ADPAC).
       
       
        1.  If any of the above routines are mapped, disable mapping for them.
       
        2.  Use the 'INSTALL/CHECK MESSAGE' option of the PackMan menu.  This
            option will load the KIDS patch onto your system.
       
        3.  The patch has now been loaded into a Transport global on your
            system.  You now need to use KIDS to install the transport global.
      The LEDI Setup option [LA7V SETUP] fails to add the member S.HL V16
       
        4.  On the 'Kernel Installation & Distribution System' Menu (KIDS),
            select the 'Installation' menu.
       
        5.  Use the 'Verify Checksum in Transport Global' option and verify that
            all routines have the correct checksums.
       
        6.  On the KIDS menu, under the 'Installation' menu, use the following
            options:
              Print Transport Global
      SERVER@remote mail domain to the mail group used to transmit HL7 messages
              Compare Transport Global to Current System
              Backup a Transport Global
       
            If you wish to preserve a copy of the routines exported in this patch
            prior to installation, you should use the 'Backup a Transport Global'
            option at this time.  You may also compare the routines in your
            production account to the routines in the patch by using the 'Compare
            a Transport Global to Current System' option.
       
        7.  The install will disable the following Lab verifying options during

            If you wish to preserve a copy of the routines exported in this patch
      to receive a result message. This problem occurs when the host lab's entry
            prior to installation, you should use the 'Backup a Transport Global'
            option at this time.  You may also compare the routines in your
            production account to the routines in the patch by using the 'Compare
            a Transport Global to Current System' option.

      the INSTITUTION file for an integrated collecting facility's primary
      system entry when the station number is used in building the result (ORU)
      message.
        
      2. Routine LA7VMSG has been changed to determine if a link back to the 
      integrated facility's primary system does not exist. If a link does not
      exist, the results are returned via the collecting facility.
       
       
      3. Routine LA7VMSG has been split into two routines (LA7VMSG and LA7VMSG1)
      because it exceeded the maximum routine size of 10k as specified by the SAC. 
       
      4. Recording of an error condition in the Lab Messaging Error Log has been 
      added when the software is unable to find the appropriate entry in the
      PROTOCOL file (#101) to use in building the HL7 message. This can occur
      when no entry is found in the PROTOCOL file or the HL7 package is unable to
      initialize the HL7 message environment for message building. The error that
      will be recorded is #28 in LA7 MESSAGE LOG BULLETINS file (#62.485).
       
      The error text will be:
        Msg # |1| encountered the following HL7 generation error: |2|.
      
         where |1| is the LA7 MESSAGE QUEUE file (#62.49) entry number

      violations that were observed in routines LAKDIFF, LAKDIFF1, LAKDIFF2,
      and LAKDIFF3 during a software review as part of patch development:
       
       
       a. Removed direct global read of global ^%ZIS(2) which contains the
          TERMINAL TYPE file.  Routine LAKDIFF was retrieving code to set
          cursor positioning. Call changed to use Kernel supplied supported
          references PREP^XGF.
       
       b. Removed user input READS which were not terminated by a carriage
          return. These were converted to use the Kernel supplied supported
          references READ^XGF.
       
       c. Removed direct global references to the DD global. These were
      This patch fixes several reported errors and corrects several Vista
          converted to FileMan supplied supported references ^DI
       
       d. Variable DTIME was being set but was not documented in Technical
          manual. Changed setting of DTIME to Kernel supported reference
          $$DTIME^XUP.
       
      4. Users are now allowed to select the accession date. Previously the
      software defaulted to the current date.
       
      5. When displaying the CBC profile the software previously only displayed
      Programming Standards and Conventions (SAC) violations.
      verified results from FILE LAB DATA (#63). The software will now display
      any unverified results that have been entered on the work list.
      These results are preceded with an "*" to denote the status of unverified.
       
      6. When determining the number of days back for delta checking the 
      software was using 60 days. This patch changes the logic to calculate the
      number of days back for delta checks by using the value the site specifies
      in FILE LABORATORY SITE (#69.9), FIELD DAYS BACK FOR DELTA CHECKS (#20).
       
      7. The user can now select if the cell differential and RBC morphology
       
      display updates on each key press. The user is prompted if they want the
      display updated with each key press upon entering the option. If the user
      selects NO then the display can be updated by entering a "?" during cell
      differential and RBC morphology entry. Selecting YES provides a continuously
      updating display. On systems with slow response times, selecting NO may
      improve performance. User's preferences for this function will be saved
      using Kernel's generic parameter utility. The parameter definition is named
      LA KDIFF DISPLAY UPDATE which will be added to the PARAMETER DEFINITION
      file (#8989.51) by the KIDS install.

      patch.  These routines may have been locally modified at the sites.  The
      sites must ensure that precautions are taken to prevent loss of local
      modifications when patches to Laboratory are installed.
       
      **NOTE**
       
      When initially setting up the FOREIGN INTERFACE file (#62.487), the
      defined by VHA DIRECTIVE 99-053 titled VISTA BLOOD BANK SOFTWARE VERSION
      FOREIGN COMPUTER INTERFACE NAME field (#.01) should ALWAYS be set to
      "CAREVUE" (all caps, no leading or trailing spaces, and no quotes).  The
      routines that access this file are looking specifically for CAREVUE.  The
      routines will not be able to process the results for CareVue ward patients
      if this is not done.
       
      This patch contains changes to Class I CareVue code and requires that
      patch LA*5.2*53 and LR*5.2*263 be installed before LA*5.2*58.  Patches
      LA*5.2*58 and LR*5.2*266 are contained in the same KID file
      (LA_52_P58.KID) and will be installed together.
      5.2.
       
      This patch includes the following changes:
       
      1.  This patch updates the documentation released with the CareVue
      Interface patch (LA*5.2*53).
       
      2.  This patch makes changes to the routines LRVER3A and LRMIUT, and will
      create a new routine (LA7DLOC).  Currently, two routines (LRVER3A and
      LRMIUT) contain the Class I software for the CareVue interface. This patch
      will modify these routines to call the new routine (LA7DLOC).  LA7DLOC
       
      contains the Class I code for determining if a patient is located in a
      CareVue ward.  The current condition of the Class I code checks the CHEM,
      HEM, TOX, RIA, SER, etc. field (#4) and the Microbiology field (#5) of the
      Lab Data file (#63), but the updated routines will call LA7DLOC and will
      look in the Ward Location field (#.1) of the Patient file (#2).  This
      shows the current location of the patient.  There were problems with
      patients that were not transferred to the CareVue ward until after the lab
      order was taken. The old routine was checking where the patient was
      located when the order was taken, and not the current location of the
      patient.

      3.  Updates to the HL/7 date conversion routines. The previous standard
      for HL/7 dates listed the date in YYYYMMDDHHMMSS format.  The degree of
      precision was listed as a separate parameter.  The new standard format is
      [YYYY[MM[DD[HH[MM[SS]]]]]-zzzz] where the bracketed sections are optional
      depending on the existence of the subsequent set. Also, if either the
      seconds or the minutes/seconds combination consist only of zeroes, the
      minutes (if zeroes) and seconds will be omitted.  The length of the
      date/time string specifies the degree of precision. In addition, a ZULU
      time offset (-zzzz) is also included.  This is the number of hours between
      LR*5.2*266 do not alter or modify any software design safeguards or safety
      Greenwich Mean Time and the local time where the date/time string was
      created.  Routines LA7DVM and LA7DVEXT have been modified to use the
      Kernel function ($$FMTHL7^XLFDT) to convert dates from FileMan to HL7
      instead of the HL/7 date conversion utility ($$HDATE^HLFNC).
       
      4.  This patch will use TaskMan to transfer data to the CareVue system.
      Currently, TaskMan is not invoked. This could cause a problem verifying a
      result if an error was encountered in the CareVue routines.
       
      5.  This patch changes the LA7D EDIT FOREIGN INTERFACE (Edit Foreign
      critical elements functions.
      Interface Parameters) option.  It is now easier to add a Ward to a Foreign
      Computer System Name.
       
      6.  This patch updates the Processing RTN field (#771) and the Response
      Processing RTN field (#772) of the Protocol file (#101) for the LA7D
      CARELIFE RESULTS and LA7D CARELIFE SERVER entries. The letter "Q" will be
      entered by the post-init routine LR266 if no entry exists.
       
      NOIS - MIA-0600-30434
         Reported an error, MISSING PROCESSING ROUTINE, when sending the HL7
       
         message from VistA to CareVue.  The letter "Q" will be entered by
         the post-init routine LR266 if no entry exists.
      NOIS - MWV-0900-21094
         Reported that all CareVue ward patients tests were not being sent to
         the CareVue system.  It was discovered that these patients were ones
         who were transferred from a non-CareVue ward to a CareVue ward after
         the tests were ordered. The patient was bypassed since the location
         at time of order was not a CareVue ward.  This patch will correct
         this by looking at the Ward Location field (#.1) in the Patient file
         (#2) for the current location of the patient.

      DATE APPLIED:   2001-04-23 00:00:00
      APPLIED BY:   USER,ONE
      DESCRIPTION:   
      VISTA Laboratory Package patch LA*5.2*57 contains no changes to software
      
          process will use INCLUDE UNCOLLECTED ACCESSIONS (#.1) in the LOAD/WORK
          LIST file (#68.2) to determine if a specimen should be downloaded to
          an instrument. Each entry in the AUTO INSTRUMENT file has a related
          LOAD/WORK LIST entry. Setting the INCLUDE UNCOLLECTED ACCESSIONS field
          to NO or blank (no value) will prevent the specimen/test downloading to
          the instrument. If the field is set to YES then uncollected specimens
          will be downloaded to an instrument. An accession is considered as
          being "collected" when the LAB ARRIVAL TIME field (#12) within the
          ACCESSION NUMBER multiple field (#68.02) within the DATE multiple
          field (#68.01) of ACCESSION file (#68) has a date/time.
       
       
       
      5.  The patch introduces the ability to have a test generate more
          than one test order. If an ordered test actually requires two or more
          tests to be performed on an instrument, then enter the test multiple
          times and associate the appropriate UI TEST CODE with the test to be
          ordered. 
       
          For result processing purposes the test may need to be entered
          separately if the result test is associated with a different file
         *****************************************************************
          #60 test or uses a different result code (UI TEST CODE). If the
          ordered and result test are the same and use the same UI TEST CODE
          then the same entry can be used for both purposes.
      
          An example would be an order for ionized and normalized calcium.
          To perform this test on the instrument it may need to perform both
          a pH and ionized calcium. In the AUTO INSTRUMENT file the test
          ionized calcium would be entered twice for ordering purposes. The
          first entry would be associated with ordering the ionized calcium
          while the second entry could be used to order the pH.

         * patch LR*5.2*262 before implementing this functionality.      *
          A second example would be bicarbonate. To perform this test on the
          instrument it may need to perform both a pH and pCO2. In the AUTO
          INSTRUMENT file the test HCO3 would be entered twice for ordering
          purposes. The first entry would be associated with ordering the
          pCO2 while the second entry could be used to order the pH. This
          same test would be added a third time. This entry handles the result
          being transmitted by the instrument which uses a different UI TEST
          CODE for result purposes.

      6.  NOIS IND-0699-40171 reported that an invalid HL7 time value was being
       
          downloaded to an instrument.
       
          When building a HL7 message the software will now check time values.
          If the time is found to not conform to HL7 specifications for a time
          value it will adjusted as follows:
          
          If hours are greater than 24, hours will be reported as 24 with no
          minutes/seconds.
          If minutes are greater than 59, minutes will be reported as 59
          If seconds are greater than 59, seconds will be reported as 59

      7.  NOIS WPB-0997-31750 reported an "undefined variable X in routine DIM"
          when the input transform for PARAM 1 (#2) within CHEM TESTS multiple
          field (#30) of the AUTO INSTRUMENT file (#62.4) kills the variable X.
          The input transform will call DIM only if X is defined.
       
       
      8.  This patch also corrects the following Vista Programming Standards
          and Conventions (SAC) violations that were observed during software
      controlled by VHA DIRECTIVE 99-053, titled VISTA BLOOD BANK SOFTWARE.
          label^routine name in FILE BUILD ENTRY field (#93) and FILE BUILD
          review as part of patch development:
       
          a. Removed direct global read of global ^VA(200) which contains the
             NEW PERSON file.  Routines LA7ADL1 and LA7UID2 were retrieving
             user's name. Call changed to Kernel supported reference
             (DBIA # 10060) using FileMan DBS call $$GET1^DIQ.
       
          b. Removed several naked indicator references in routine LADOWN that
             were not documented. Routine changed to use full global reference.
       
          ROUTINE field (#94) in the AUTO INSTRUMENT file (#62.4), the auto
          c. Changed FileMan security on several fields in AUTO INSTRUMENT file
             (#62.4) per SAC section 3.2.6. See section "FILE SECURITY" below for
             additional information.
       
       
      9.  Corrects an "undefined variable ^(2)" error in routine LADOWN that
          was detected by laboratory development during the software review for
          the patch. This error would occur if an attempt to download a load/work
          list was initiated which have no specimens on the list.
       
          download process would error with the following message:
       
      10. Removed software checks that would only allow downloading of entries
          in file #62.4 when the internal entry number was less than 100.
       
       
      11. A misspelling of the DOWNLOAD PROTOCOL ROUTINE (#92) field in the
          AUTO INSTRUMENT file (#62.4) is corrected. The word PROTOCOL in the
          field name was misspelled.
       
       
          $ZE= UID+28^LA7ADL:3, %DSM-E-PNAME, bad routine name
      12. The Download a load list to an Instrument option [LA DOWN] sets up the
          ^LA global for downloading records to an instrument that are direct
          connects or interfaced via the Lab LSI. The Lab Universal Interface
          does not use the LA global for this purpose. This option will only
          setup the ^LA global when the MESSAGE CONFIGURATION field (#8) in AUTO
          INSTRUMENT file is empty, indicating that this entry is not using the
          Lab Universal Interface.
       
        
      13. During patch development it was found that processing of the HL7
       
          specimen source from sequence 15 of the OBR segment of a HL7 Result
          (ORU) message was checking the entire first component of this field.
          This checking should occur using the first sub-component of the first
          component of sequence 15. Routine LA7UIIN1 has been changed to
          correctly check the specimen source.

      POST-INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS:
      ===============================
        
      The Lab ADPAC/LIM should review the AUTO INSTRUMENT and LOAD/WORK LIST
      files to adjust any field settings based on the corrections/enhancements 
      introduced by this patch.
       
      Note: Use FileMan Enter/Edit option to edit LOAD/WORK LIST file (#68.2)
            and AUTO INSTRUMENT file (#62.4).
       
            file (#62.4).
      1. If using the auto download feature of the Lab Universal Interface then
      shutdown the auto download process first before making changes. This can
      be performed by using the Start/Stop Auto Download Background Job
      [LA7 ADL START/STOP] option and selecting action: 2 Shutdown Auto Download
      Job.
       
      2. To prevent uncollected accessions from being downloaded via the
      Universal Interface, use FileMan Enter/Edit to set INCLUDE UNCOLLECTED
      ACCESSIONS (#.1) field in the LOAD/WORK LIST file (#68.2) to NO for the
      load/work list that is associated with an instrument in the AUTO INSTRUMENT
       
      file via LOAD/WORK LIST field (#3).
       
      3. Configure those tests that will require download eligibility screening.
      Using FileMan Enter/Edit, edit these tests in the AUTO INSTRUMENT file that
      should be screened by editing the fields ACCESSION AREA (#7), SPECIMEN (#8)
      and URGENCY (#9) within CHEM TESTS multiple field (#30) of the AUTO
      INSTRUMENT file (#62.4).
       
      If the same test requires different screening criteria, the test can be
      entered multiple times and configured appropriately.
       
       
      4. Restart the auto download if stopped in number #1 above using the same
      option and selecting action: 1 Start/Restart Auto Download Job.

          instrument. In addition to screening by specimen type, tests can also
          be screened by accession area and urgency.
        
          This patch adds three new fields to support this functionality.
          The fields are:
       
      download to be configured to only transmit orders for collected specimens.
          ACCESSION AREA (#7), SPECIMEN (#8) and URGENCY (#9) within CHEM TESTS
          multiple field (#30) of the AUTO INSTRUMENT file (#62.4).
       
          When these fields are valued for a test in the CHEM TESTS multiple,
          an order for the test on the accession will only be transmitted to
          the instrument if it matches this criteria. Any field that is blank
          (no value) will match on any value for the field.
       
          If the same test requires different screening criteria, the test can
          be entered multiple times and configured appropriately.
      It enhances the auto download to determine if a test order is transmitted
       
          Example:
          Accession CH 0510 20 has a specimen type = plasma with the following
          tests:  GLUCOSE  (routine)
                  BUN      (routine)
                  CALCIUM  (stat)
         
          AUTO INSTRUMENT file is configured with entries that have the following
          tests: 
          Test       Accession Area    Specimen     Urgency
      to an automated instrument based on the accession area, specimen type and
          ----       --------------    --------     -------
          GLUCOSE    CH                <blank>      routine
          BUN        CH                serum        <blank>
          CALCIUM    <blank>           <blank>      stat
       
          This would create an order for GLUCOSE since it matched on the
          accession area, urgency and any specimen.
       
          The BUN would not be sent to this instrument because it did not match
          on the specimen type while matching on the accession area and any
      test urgency of each test on the accession.
          urgency.
       
          The CALCIUM would be sent because it matched on the urgency and any

      The process of building a shipping manifest now allows the user to
      specify the starting and ending accession numbers to check within an
      accession area. This feature can shorten manifest building time when
      searching a yearly accession area with a large number of accessions.
      It allows the site to skip the accession numbers that have been
      completed earlier in a year and no longer need to be checked to
      implement a laboratory electronic HL7 standard interface to a facility or
      determine it any of the tests meet the criteria for building to a
      manifest.
       
       
      The process of closing a shipping manifest now performs a check of
      certain required information. The required information check is for:
       1. Each test has an order NLT code assigned.
       2. If shipping to a facility that does not use VA NLT codes for
          test ordering, the appropriate non-VA test codes/names
          have been designated for all tests on the manifest.
      other entity outside the VA wide area network.  National communication
       3. Site-specified required patient/specimen information has been
          entered.
       
       
      The process of building orders in the file LAB PENDING ORDER (#69.6)
      has been enhanced to use information from the file LAB SHIPPING
      CONFIGURATION (#62.9) to create orders based on the host facilities
      specified collection sample and urgency.
       
       
      security concerns are still being debated by the Department of Veterans
      The LEDI result (ORU) messages will now include the test interpretation
      found in LABORATORY TEST file (#60) as a comment (NTE segment) following
      the test results. Test results to be stored will be checked against the
      FileMan input transform for the data name used to store the results in
      file LAB DATA (#63). If the results do not pass the FileMan input
      transform then an error message will be generated via the Lab
      Universal Interface error reporting process. Results values that are
      "canc", "pending" or "comment" will be stored.
       
       
      Affairs (VA) and are awaiting resolution.  At present, a VA medical center,
      The option Display Lab Universal Interface Message [LA7 PRINT LAB UI
      MESSAGE] has been modified to prompt the user if the Kernel Browser
      should be used to display a message. If the browser is not selected then
      a standard "scroll and roll" display of the selected message(s) is
      produced.
      
      Option Retransmit LEDI Lab Results [LA7S RESULTS RETRANSMIT] will allow
      a user to retransmit the laboratory test results for selected accession(s)
      to the collecting/submitting facility.

         field SHIP VIA #.04 in file LAB SHIPPING MANIFEST (#62.8) when a manifest
         is created. This information will update existing manifests with
         information from the related file LAB SHIPPING CONFIGURATION (#62.9)
         entry.
       
       - The processing routine specified in file LA7 MESSAGE PARAMETER (#62.48)
         for entries related to LEDI has been changed. Existing entries will be
         updated as appropriate.

      ========================================
      Additionally support is added for TCP/IP protocol as a communication
      protocol for the transmission of LEDI HL7 messages. This requires
      patch HL*1.6*19 to have been successfully installed. The implementation
      of this protocol in place of the current MailMan protocol will
      significantly increase transmission speed of messages and reduce system
      overhead/storage. Both systems that will be exchanging HL7 messages,
      using the TCP/IP protocol will need to coordinate the switch to this
      new transmission method. There will be two logical links established
      to exchange messages a server (listener) logical link to receive and
      process messages and a client link to transmit messages.
       
       
      A new shipping code SM40 - Required Shipping Info Updated has been added
      to file LAB ELECTRONIC CODES (#64.061). This code is used when recording
      this event in file LAB SHIPPING EVENT (#62.85)
       
        
      Comments can now contain ";"character. Previously the ";" character was
      used to parse comments into multiple lines and filed in the database using
      a classical FileMan DIE call. FileMan parsed the fields to edit using
      the ";" character in the DR string. The new call uses a FileMan database
      This patch adds support for sending/receiving Laboratory Electronic
      server call, which does not have this restriction.
       
       
      New fields have been added and existing fields modified within the
      CHEM TEST subfile of file AUTO INSTRUMENT (#62.4) to support the
      following features when processing result messages. These features
      are site-selectable. See data dictionary field description for each
      field for further information. Using option LEDI Setup [LA7V SETUP],
      the section on Auto Instrument settings will prompt for these additional
      fields.

      1. Process NTE segments following OBX segments. Comments found attached
         to specific test results are stored as comments. The field REMARK PREFIX
         #18 in CHEM TEST subfile can be used to specify a comment prefix that
         will be made part of the comment.
      2. Store test reference ranges, abnormal flags and name of performing
         laboratory. This patch stores these parameters as comments with the
         results. This information is prefixed with the field REMARK PREFIX.
      3. Specify whether final or incomplete results are processed.

      New fields have been added to the LAB SHIPPING CONFIGURATION file (#62.9)
      to allow collecting facilities to specify required patient/specimen
       
      information to be sent with shipping manifest. This can include specimen
      volume, weight, collection end date/time (collection duration),
      patient height and weight (NOIS ALB-1099-51591). LOINC codes are used to
      identify patient height, weight and specimen weight when appropriate.

      APPLIED BY:   USER,ONE
      DESCRIPTION:   
      VISTA Laboratory Package patch LA*5.2*61 contains no changes to software
        * patch, the HL7 Result (ORU) message will no longer contain the   *
      problem the software will no longer generate a performing laboratory
      comment. 
      
      Collecting facilities wanting a comment indicating the name of the
      performing laboratory should turn on the generation of the performing
      laboratory comment when processing the results at the collecting facility.
      To turn on the generation of the performing laboratory comment use the
      option LEDI Setup [LA7V SETUP]. Under the host facility automated
      instrument section for each test, enter a remark prefix in field REMARK
      PREFIX (#19) and "YES" at the field STORE PRODUCER'S ID (#20). The
        * performing laboratory comment. See item #7 for instructions.     *
      performing laboratory comment can then be generated based on field OBX-15
      Producer's ID in the OBX segment for each test result found in the HL7
      Result (ORU) message. The comment generated by the software will be 
      remark prefix_"results from "_name of performing institution from 
      INSTITUTION file (#4). If the REMARK PREFIX field is blank then the test
      name of the corresponding test from LABORATORY TEST file (#60) is used.
       
      Example:
           remark prefix="Theophylline "
             institution="REGION 7 ISC,TX (DEMO)"
        *                                                                  *
       generated comment="Theophylline results from REGION 7 ISC,TX (DEMO)"
      
      8. NOIS IND-0402-42261 reported a problem with building and sending HL7
      Result (ORU) messages to the collecting facility. Accessions with UID's
      that are alphanumeric were skipped during message building due to code
      that was treating the UID as numeric. Routine LA7VMSG1 will now handle
      alphanumeric UID's and return results to the collecting facility.
       
      9. Due to changes to routine LA7VORU, which resulted in the routine size 
      exceeding the VA Vista Programming Standards and Conventions (SAC) of
        * Host facilities: Notify your collection facilities of scheduled  *
      10,000 characters, the routine was split into two routines, LA7VORU
      and LA7VORUA.

      Patch LA*5.2*61 addresses several NOIS'es involving the Laboratory
      references does not perform correctly, leaving incorrect entries in
      the "CH" cross-reference. These two MUMPS cross-references are replaced
      by a single new style FileMan Regular INDEX file cross-reference named
      "CH". The cross-reference "ASC" on LAB MESSAGING LINK field (#.07) will
      be removed due to its lack of use by the laboratory software.
      The KIDS pre-install will delete these fields and cross-references
      during patch installation. Patch LA*5.2*61 will install these fields with
      the new cross-reference "CH" and re-index the "CH" cross-reference.
       
      3. NOIS CON-0302-10181 reported the option Edit Shipping Configuration
      Electronic Data Interchange (LEDI) software. 
      [LA7S EDIT 62.9] was prompting the user to edit unexpected fields
      within the TEST/PROFILE (#60) subfile, specifically fields ACCESSION
      AREA (#.02) and SPECIMEN (#.03), when a host facility configures a
      shipping configuration to receive specimens from a collecting facility.
      It was determined that variables setup for a FileMan DIC API call to
      select an entry in file #62.9 were later interacting with a FileMan DIE
      API call to edit the selected entry. The routine LA7SCE has been modified
      to kill required FileMan DIC input variables before making the FileMan
      DIE call.
       
      
      4. NOIS PHI-0302-20433 reported a problem with the setting of the "Q"
      cross-reference on field STATUS (#2) in LA7 MESSAGE QUEUE file (#62.49).
      The setting of the cross-reference could fail when other fields that the
      cross-reference is dependent on have not been valued. A previous patch
      changed lab code to use FileMan DBS calls instead of classic FileMan
      calls. These DBS calls file data by field number. Previously FileMan
      filed the fields in the order specified in the DR variable. This causes
      the MUMPS cross-references to fail at times when the other fields the
      cross-reference is dependent on, have not been filed or updated.
      A similar problem potentially exists for the ORU cross-reference on this
        ********************************************************************
      same field. These two MUMPS cross-references are replaced by new style
      FileMan Regular INDEX file cross-reference named "Q" and "AC" respectively.
      The KIDS pre-install will delete these fields and cross-references during
      patch installation. Patch LA*5.2*61 will install this field with the new
      cross-references.
       
      5. NOIS BHS-0302-10236 reported a problem with an accession/test building
      multiples times on a shipping manifest. This was caused when a test is
      specified multiple times on the shipping configuration but with different
      specimen types. The logic to build the test onto the manifest was not
        *                                                                  *
      clearing a flag to indicate that a test should be added to the manifest
      when checking the test for each of the possible specimens to build.
      Routine LA7SM1 will now set and clear the flag to add a test when the
      configuration specifies the same test for multiple specimens. 
       
      6. NOIS LON-0402-60012 reported a problem when a host facility uses "dummy"
      tests to report patient results. These "dummy" results along with the 
      patient's actual test results were transmitted in an HL7 ORU Result message
      to the collecting facility. These test results were encoded with the parent
      test's result NLT and LOINC codes due to lack of proper result code mapping.
        * Collecting facilities: Upon host laboratory installation of this *
      Routines LA7VOBX1 and LA7VHLU1 will now attempt to identify test results
      which are associated with LABORATORY TEST file (#60) tests that are TYPE =
      BOTH or OUTPUT to determine if a specific test result is returned to the
      collecting facility. 
      
      7. NOIS BHS-0302-10236 reported a problem with the generation of the
      performing laboratory comment that is automatically added to the HL7
      Result (ORU) message. The name of the performing laboratory was based
      on the name of the primary facility. This name is incorrect when testing
      is performed by a division of an integrated facility. To correct this

      The INSTRUMENT NAME field is constructed as follows:
       1. Instrument name from the #.01 Name field of the Auto Instrument file #62.4

       3. Lab Unique Id or Accession number
          - Outgoing messages always use the UID when building this name.
          - Incoming messages are based on what is found in the message.

      --------------------
      Universal Interface if a site is using this capability.
       
         Resolution: Option LA7 ADL START/STOP added to LA7 MAIN MENU option.
      This option can be used by sites utilizing the automatic download feature
      to start/restart/stop the automatic download process. When a site makes
      changes to an auto instrument entry in the AUTO INSTRUMENT file (#62.4),
      and the entry is used for automatic downloading, the automatic download
      process needs to be restarted. If a site wishes to stop the automatic
      download process then it can be shutdown using this option.
       
       
       
      E. Problem: No option to send/resend an existing accession when using the
      automatic download feature of the Universal Interface.
       
         Resolution: Option LA7 ADL SEND added to LA7 MAIN MENU option. This
      option allows for the manual selection of accession(s) for downloading to
      an instrument for those instruments utilizing automatic downloading. It
      will place the selected accessions in the queue to be checked for
      downloading to those instruments designated for automatic downloading.
        
      1. Summary of E3R
      F. Problem: When processing an incoming result message that had a specimen
      id that is an accession number, the accession date was being set to the
      current date (DT). This caused results to be stored in LAH under the
      wrong accession when the default accession area for the instrument was
      non-daily, i.e. monthly, quarterly, yearly.
       
         Resolution: Determine the current accession date when processing by
      accession number based on the accession transform (field # .05 in
      Accession file #68). Routine LA7UIIN1 modified.

       INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
       -------------------------
       The install time for this patch is less than 5 minutes. This patch
       can be installed when Laboratory users are on the system.
       However the following conditions apply:
        1. Accessioning should not be occurring,
        2. The HL7 background job (HLLP) for the Lab Universal Interface should
           be stopped.
      ------------------
        3. The routine LA7UIIN to process incoming HL7 messages should not
           be running.
        4. If using auto download, the routine LA7ADL should not be running.
       
       NOTE: MailMan and Kernel patches must be current on the target system to
             avoid problems loading and/or installing this patch.
       
       1.  If any of the above routines are mapped, disable mapping for them.
       
       2.  Use the 'INSTALL/CHECK MESSAGE' option of the PackMan menu.  This
      Associated patches: (v)LA*5.2*25    <<= must be installed BEFORE `LA*5.2*23'
       
           option will load the KIDS patch onto your system.
       
       3.  The patch has now been loaded into a Transport global on your
           system.  You now need to use KIDS to install the transport global.
       
       4.  On the 'Kernel Installation & Distribution System' Menu (KIDS),
           select the 'Installation' menu.
       
       5.  Use the 'Verify Checksum in Transport Global' option and verify that
           all routines have the correct checksums.
         BRK-0696-11519
       
       6.  If you wish to preserve a copy of the routines exported in this patch
           prior to installation, you should use the 'Backup a Transport Global'
           option at this time.  You may also compare the routine in your
           production account to the routine in the patch by using the 'Compare
           a Transport Global to Current System' option.  These options can
           both be found under the 'Installation' menu.
       
       7.  Use the 'Install Package(s)' option under the 'Installation' menu
           and select the package 'LA*5.2*23'.  When prompted 'Want to
         SDC-1296-60042
           DISABLE Scheduled Options, Menu Options, and Protocols? NO//',
           choose 'NO'.
       
       8.  MSM sites:  You should respond 'YES' to 'Want to MOVE routines to
           other CPUs?' and specify CPUs.  Alternatively, you may move the
           routines to your other systems after KIDS has finished the
           installation.
       
       9. On a mapped system, rebuild your map set.
       
         LEB-1296-20455
       10. Restart the HL7 background job(s) for the Lab Universal Interface if
           previously stopped.
       
       11. Routine LA23 can be deleted after successful patch installation.

      A. Problem: With consolidation of sites, laboratories are operating with
      more than 99 accession areas. This has necessitated changes to the
      construction of the UID, (See related patch LR*5.2*129).
      
      Previously this was a 10 character numeric string. To handle sites with
      greater than 99 accession areas, the format has been changed to allow
      alphanumeric when designating the accession area identifier. This patch
      incorporates changes to the Lab UI to properly handle this new format.
       
      
         1. Auto download process was performing a numeric check of UID which is no
            longer valid in routine LA7ADL.
       
         2. Test result process was performing a numeric check of UID which is no
            longer valid in routine LA7UIIN1.
       
         Resolution: Altered check of UID to accept alphanumeric characters.

      A: Patch Description Summary
         NOIS LEB-1296-20455
         -------------------
      A. Problem: When processing test result messages, if site set flag to only
      process tests that were ordered, it was possible for a result to not be
      processed when it was ordered. This would occur if variable LA7TREE was
      defined and contained a value greater than 999.
       
         Resolution: Kill variable LA7TREE in routine LA7UIIN2 before call to
      routine UNWIND^LA7UTIL which determine if test results are for a test that
      was ordered.

      3. NOIS VDA-1296-N0470
         -------------------
      A. Problem: When processing incoming HL7 messages to the Lab UI, the
      routine LA7UIIN1 was setting up the call to LAGEN to create an entry in the
      LAH global using the default accession area defined in the auto instrument
      file. With the introduction of the UID, the lab package is implementing the
      ability to run multiple accession areas on one instrument. The call to
      LAGEN should build the accession area from the UID if available and use the
      This patch will address nine issues that have been reported on NOIS or
      default accession area only when an accession number is passed.
       
         Resolution: Modified routine LA7UIIN1 to build the accession area from
      the UID when available before making call to LAGEN to create entry in LAH
      global.

         Resolution: Menu text changed from "Print Lab Universal Inteface Log" to
      "Print Lab Universal Interface Log".
       
       
      B. Problem: Option LA7 MAIN MENU was released in patch LA*5.2*17 but not
      attached to the normal Lab menu system.
       
         Resolution: Option LA7 MAIN MENU is added to the option LA INTERFACE.
       
       
       
      C. Problem: When troubleshooting a problem with the Universal Interface,
      there was no option to display a message.
       
         Resolution: Option LA7 PRINT UI MESSAGE added to LA7 MAIN MENU option to
      allow user to display/print Universal Interface messages from file #62.49,
      LA7 MESSAGE QUEUE. User can select 1-20 messages. Messages can be selected by
      using either the #.01 field - MESSAGE NUMBER or #5 field - INSTRUMENT NAME.

         d. Mail bulletin: LA7 ORDER STATUS CHANGED
         Mail bulletin created by Laboratory package when processing a LEDI
         interface type HL7 message.
      
         Bulletin will be generated for the following conditions:
       
         - When an order acknowledgment (ORR) message contains laboratory
         test order status changes that indicate the order is not correct or
         cannot be performed/completed. Currently only supported on LEDI
      
         interfaces with DoD facilities.
       
         - When an order result (ORU) message indicates that a laboratory
         test has been added by the reference laboratory to the original order.
       
      12. Corrected a spelling error in set of codes for LAB SHIPPING
      CONFIGURATION file (#62.9), COLLECTING FACILITY'S SPEC ID field (#.05).
       
      13. Internal review determined that the specimen container was not printing
      on working copies of shipping manifests. When printing working versions
      VALIDATION REQUIREMENTS BY OPTION:  Because of the nature of the changes
      of a shipping manifest the specimen container will be printed.
        
      14. A new error bulletin #47 has been added to LA7 MESSAGE LOG BULLETINS
      file (#62.485). When processing LEDI orders if any of the following are
      incomplete - local test, local urgency, local topography or local collection
      sample then the bulletin will be triggered. This is to insure that orders
      sent by the collecting facility are not missed when processed during LEDI
      Referral Patient Accessioning. If this bulletin is triggered it indicates
      that the host site's shipping configuration is not properly configured to
      process orders from it's collecting site.

      DIRECTIVE 99-053 titled VISTA BLOOD BANK SOFTWARE VERSION 5.2.
      2. The new option Start a Shipping Manifest [LA7S MANIFEST START] will
      allow a manifest to be started without performing a manifest build.
      Specimens can then be added manually, instead of automatically, using
      option Add/Remove a Shipping Manifest Test [LA7S MANIFEST TEST ADD/REMOVE].
      
      3. The new option Edit Relevant Clinical Information [LA7S MANIFEST
      CLINICAL INFO] is used to enter relevant clinical information that
      should accompany a test order on a manifest.
       
      4. Converted supported API calls $$FMDATE^HLFNC and $$HLDATE^HLFNC to
      
      recommended Kernel supported API's $$HL7TFM^XLFDT and $$FMTHL7^XLFDT
      respectively.
       
      5. Routine LA7VHL changed to call HL7 supported API RSPINIT^HLFNC2 to
      obtain message delimiters that HL7 package will use when building MSH
      header of application acknowledgement message. Previous call to
      INIT^HLFNC would return incorrect headers under certain conditions.
      See patch HL*1.6*101 for additional information.
       
      6. Routine LA7VMSG1 changed to check if $QUERY of ^TMP global has
      EFFECT ON BLOOD BANK FUNCTIONAL REQUIREMENTS: Patch LA*5.2*64 does not
      returned a null value. Under certain conditions an illegal function call
      error could be observed.
       
      7. Changed routines LA7VLL, LA7VSTP, and LA7VSTP1 to setup LA7V* logical
      links without <space> between "LA7V" and station number. Allows HL7 package
      to display logical links for DoD sites which utilize DoD DMIS ID codes as
      facility identifiers similar to VA station numbers. HL7 package only
      displays first 8 characters of logical link name. Option LEDI Setup
      [LA7V SETUP] will only support creation of TCP logical links.
       
      alter or modify any software design safeguards or safety critical elements
      8. Routine LA7PURG is changed to purge shipping manifests from LAB
      SHIPPING MANIFEST file (#62.8) when all related accessions have been
      purged from ACCESSION file (#68) (E3R #18036). Orders in the LAB PENDING
      ORDERS ENTRY file (#69.6) are purged when the date completed is >365
      days, when the order transmitted date is >720 days or when the order
      transmitted date is >360 and the order status is Results/data Received.
       
      9. When selecting a shipping manifest the list of entries to select
      from will list the manifests in inverse order with the most recent
      being displayed first. (E3R #18036)
      functions.
       
      10. Requesting provider's office phone, voice and digital pager numbers
      will be printed on working copies of shipping manifest. (E3R #17914)
       
      11. Four new alerts/mail bulletins are generated when processing LEDI
      HL7 messages. These alerts and corresponding bulletins are addressed to
      the mail group designated to receive the NEW RESULTS alert specified
      by the site in LA7 MESSAGE PARAMETER file (#62.48) for LEDI type
      interfaces.
       
      
         a. Mail bulletin: LA7 ABNORMAL RESULTS RECEIVED
         Mail bulletin created by Laboratory package when processing a LEDI
         interface type HL7 result (ORU) message which contains laboratory
         testing results that are flagged as critical or abnormal.  Values
         that are critical will always trigger the alert and bulletin. Values
         that are abnormal low or high will be triggered when site has flagged
         the corresponding test in AUTO INSTRUMENT file (#62.4), NOTIFY ABNORMAL
         FLAGS field (#22) within the CHEM TEST multiple (#30) for the interface.
       
         b. Mail bulletin: LA7 AMENDED RESULTS RECEIVED
      RISK ANALYSIS: Changes made by patch LA*5.2*64 have no effect on Blood Bank
         Mail bulletin created by Laboratory package when processing a LEDI
         interface type HL7 result (ORU) message which contains laboratory
         testing results that are flagged as amended.
       
         c. Mail bulletin: LA7 UNITS/NORMALS CHANGED
         Mail bulletin created by Laboratory package when processing a LEDI
         interface type HL7 result (ORU) message which contains laboratory
         test result units and/or normals different from values specified for
         test in LABORATORY TEST file (#60) and which are flagged to be used
         for reference testing purposes.

      Additionally, the following changes have been made:
       
      2. Removed prompt to save alert when viewing lab messaging alert in routine
      LA7UXQA. This functionality is now part of Kernel Alert processing.
       
      3. When logging lab messaging processing errors, FileMan DIE call in
      routine LA7LOG was converted to FileMan DBS call.
       
      4. Lab messaging will now check that LA7TASK NIGHTY option is scheduled
      in TaskMan. If not scheduled then an alert notifying members of mail group
       
      LAB MESSAGING will be generated. The alert message will read "Lab Messaging
      - Option LA7TASK NIGHTY is not scheduled in TaskMan". Documentation
      regarding tasking can be found in the VistA Laboratory LEDI User Guide and
      on-line via the DESCRIPTION field of the OPTION file (#19) for this entry.
       
      5. Result of 'canc' was not being processed if the test was configured to
      only accept 'final' type results (HL7 Table 0085 - Observation result
      status codes interpretation codes C, F, or U. Changed routine LA7VIN5A to
      accept and process "canc' result with status code X.

       5)  For Lab UI messages, any units/reference ranges received from an instrument
       are discarded as the units/reference ranges from the associated LABORATORY TEST
       file (#60) are used.

       stored.
       
       software functionality, therefore RISK is none.
       7)  The Lab UI Auto Download process (routine LA7ADL) is changed to support the
       FileMan system wide lock timeout via supported API LOCK^DILF.
       
       8. To provide for data entry consistency, results received via this
       interface are validated against the input transform for the data field
       used to store the test results. Test results received from an instrument
       that do not conform to the input transform for the related Lab Data Name
       will be rejected.
       
       If SET OF CODES is utilized as the data type for a particular interfaced
       
       test, the internally stored code needs to be brought into alignment with
       what the instrument is reporting. If the instrument sends a result that
       does not match what is entered in the SET OF CODES that result is
       considered not to be verifiable data.

       INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
       =========================
       The current UI interface using the HL v1.5 interface will continue to function
       
         The install time for this patch is less than 2 minutes.  This patch
         should be installed when Laboratory users are off the system.
       
         The Lab Universal Interface Auto Download should be shutdown before
         installing this patch.  This can be done via the Start/Stop Auto
         Download Background Job [LA7 ADL START/STOP] menu option.
       
         The KIDS environment check determines if the Lab UI Auto Download
         process is currently running:
       after patch installation.  The transition to the HL V1.6 interface can be
       
           If it is running it will be automatically shutdown during patch
           installation and automatically restarted after patch installation.
       
           If the Lab UI Auto Download process is not running at patch
           installation time then KIDS will take no action with the Lab UI Auto
           download process.
       
         After patch installation is complete, check the status of the Lab UI
         Auto Download process using the option Start/Stop Auto Download
       accomplished after patch installation on a connection by connection basis.
         Background Job [LA7 ADL START/STOP] and configure to normal
         operational setting (see step 6 below).
       
       
         Suggested time to install: non-peak requirement hours.
         The installation should NOT be queued.
       
          Note: Patch installation needs to be coordinated with the Laboratory
                Information Manager (LIM/ADPAC).
       
       When possible, switching from the old interface to the new interface should be
         1.  Use the 'INSTALL/CHECK MESSAGE' option of the PackMan menu.  This
             option will load the KIDS patch onto your system.
       
         2.  On the 'Kernel Installation & Distribution System' Menu (KIDS),
             select the 'Installation' menu.
       
         3.  Use the 'Verify Checksum in Transport Global' option and verify
             that all routines have the correct checksums.
       
         4.  On the KIDS menu, under the 'Installation' menu, use the following
       done on a per instrument basis instead of all instruments at once.  Follow the
             options:
               Print Transport Global
               Compare Transport Global to Current System
               Backup a Transport Global
       
         5.  Use the 'Install Package(s)' option under the 'Installation' menu
             and select the package 'LA*5.2*66'.
       
             When prompted
               'Want KIDS to Rebuild Menu Trees Upon Completion of Install?'
       post installation instructions to convert an interface to the HL V1.6
             choose 'NO'.  Note: Responding "Yes" to the prompt for rebuilding
             menu trees can significantly increase install time.
       
             When prompted
                'Want KIDS to INHIBIT LOGONs during the install?
             choose 'NO'.
       
             When prompted
                 'Want to DISABLE Scheduled Options, Menu Options, and
                  Protocols?  YES//'
       EFFECT ON BLOOD BANK FUNCTIONAL REQUIREMENTS: Patch LA*5.2*66 does not contain
       interface.
             choose 'NO' unless the site has additional laboratory options that
             should be disabled during install.
       
         6. If the Lab Universal Interface Auto Download process was stopped
            manually, restart it via the Start/Stop Auto Download Background
            Job [LA7 ADL START/STOP] menu option.
       
            If the process was stopped by the KIDS install itself, the process
            will restart automatically.
       
       
       
         Note: Routine LA66 will be deleted after successful patch installation.

       as the Receiving Application.
       
       The PROTOCOL (#101), HL7 APPLICATION PARAMETER (#771), HL LOGICAL LINK (#870)
       and LA7 MESSAGE PARAMETER (#62.48) files each have ten entries using a naming
       convention that contains "LA7UIx" (where "x" is an integer) such as "LA7UI1
       2004-058 titled VISTA BLOOD BANK SOFTWARE VERSION 5.2.
       ORU-R01 EVENT 2.2" and "LA7UI1."  This convention allows the site to interface
       with multiple generic instrument managers.
       
       To setup an auto-instrument, the MESSAGE CONFIGURATION field (#8) of the AUTO
       INSTRUMENT file (#62.4) must be set to the appropriate LA7 MESSAGE PARAMETER
       file (#62.48) entry (ie LA7UI1).  Also, the FILE BUILD ENTRY field (#93) should
       equal "EN" and the FILE BUILD ROUTINE field (#94) should equal "LA7UID".
       
       In order to send/receive messages the configuration needs to be set ACTIVE via
       its STATUS field (#2) of LA7 MESSAGE PARAMETER file (#62.48).  The
       
       configuration must also specify which routine is used to process messages in
       LA7 MESSAGE PARAMETER file (#62.48) PROCESS DOWNLOAD field (#6) which should be
       set to "D EN^LA7UIO" for Lab Universal Interfaces.

       1)  The v1.5 interface constructed ORM message segments that were not in
       compliance with the HL7 standard.  Previously an ORC segment was followed by
       one or more OBR segments.  The HL7 standard specifies that ORC/OBR segments
       should exist as a pair so in this interface each ordered test will be sent in
       the ORM message as an ORC/OBR segment pair.  Example:
       modify any software design safeguards or safety critical elements functions.
         PID...
         PV1...
         ORC...
         OBR...
         ORC...
         OBR...
       
       
       2)  HL7 message data is now checked for conflicts with HL7 delimiters.  If data
       conflicts with the message's delimiters then the data with be escape encoded
       
       according to HL7 rules.
       
       
       3)  In an ORM message, OBR-18 is constructed as an HL7 string data type.  The
       HL7 v1.5 interface constructed it as a coded element (CE) data type.
       
       
       4)  For Lab UI messages, if the specimen received does not match the HL7 0070
       table, an interface error message will be created unless the specimen is
       related to the LAB CONTROL NAME file (#62.3).

       DESCRIPTION:   This protocol should be attached to the HL7 event protocol
       LA7 LAB RESULTS AVAILABLE (EVN). See this protocol for further information.
       
       This subscriber protocol is used by the Laboratory package to indicate to
       the HL package to send laboratory results to the VA Health Data Repository
       (HDR).
       
       It utilizes the "Router" Subscriber Protocol supported by the VistA HL
      All of the above changes have been reviewed by the VISTA Blood Bank
       package. The routing logic uses the value of the parameter passed into the
       router to determine which Laboratory package subscript should be sent to
       the HDR.
       
       Examples:
       
       ROUTING LOGIC: D RTR^LA7HDR("CH;") will only send to HDR-IMS results
       associated with Laboratory "CH" subscript.
       
       ROUTING LOGIC: D RTR^LA7HDR("MI;") will only send to HDR-IMS results
      Developer and found to have no impact on the VISTA BLOOD BANK SOFTWARE

      2. The following option is added to the OPTION file (#19)
       
      NAME: LA7 HDR RECOVER    MENU TEXT: Recover/Transmit Lab HDR Result
      Messages
       TYPE: run routine                                      
       PACKAGE: AUTOMATED LAB INSTRUMENTS
       
       DESCRIPTION:   Option to recover from failed Lab HDR ORU Result message 
      generation and/or transmission failure. This option allows the user to
      select those VistA Laboratory accessions that need to be transmitted to
      the VA HDR and other subscribers of the VistA Laboratory Result Available
      HL7 message capability via the protocol Lab Results Available Event [LA7
      LAB RESULTS AVAILABLE (EVN)].
       
      If the original message generation/transmission failed due to system or 
      communication problems then using this option will allow the generation of
      new HL7 messages with the results associated with the selected 
      RISK ANALYSIS:   Changes made by patch LA*5.2*68 have no effect on Blood
      accessions.  Accessions can be selected using the human-readable accession
      designation (area abbreviation modified date accession number - "CH 1225
      100") or the accession's associated 10 character unique identifier (UID).
       
       ROUTINE: RECOVER^LA7HDR 
       UPPERCASE MENU TEXT: RECOVER/TRANSMIT LAB HDR RESUL
       
      This option is assigned to the Lab liaison menu option [LRLIAISON] and
      can be assigned to other uses as needed that support/monitor message 
      transmission to the VA HDR and other subscribers.
      Bank software functionality, therefore RISK is none.
       
      3. The LA7HDR routine, if the configuration LA7HDR in LA7 MESSAGE
      PARAMETER file (#62.48) has an active status, queues the record for
      transmission to the HDR via a HL7 ORU result message which is transmitted
      by the HL package to any subscribers of event protocol LA7 LAB RESULTS
      AVAILABLE (EVN) in addition to the HDR subscriber LA7 LAB RESULTS TO HDR
      (SUB).
       
         The LA7 LAB RESULTS TO HDR (SUB) subscriber protocol uses the logical
      link VDEFVIE4. This is a router subscriber protocol which determines
       
      which Lab HL7 messages are sent to the HDR. See protocol description
      for further information.
        
       
      4. Anatomic Pathology is not "CPRS-aware" and is unable to notify CPRS of
      release of anatomic pathology results. HDR will be notified of 
      availability of anatomic pathology results via three new-style
      cross-references in LAB DATA file (#63). These indexes will also trigger
      generation of the Lab HL7 ORU message if this capability has been enabled.

      9. It corrects a defect identified during patch development with
      processing input parameters for the GCPR^LA7QRY API. If the input
       
      parameter LA7SC specified specific subscripts to search then the API
      would search those subscripts for any search code even when specific 
      search codes were passed to the API in the LA7SC array.
       
      10. Converts several FileMan DBS calls on INSTITUTION file (#4) to using
      supported API's $$NS^XUAF4 and $$STA^XUAF4.
       
      11. It corrects a defect identified during patch development with
      processing input parameters for the GCPR^LA7QRY API. If the input
      parameters LA7SDT and LA7EDT specified specific results available date
      Additionally, it provides the capability for the transmission of the HL7
      range the API could return anatomic pathology results which have not
      been released. This API has been corrected to check the REPORT RELEASE
      DATE field (#.11) for subscripts "CY", EM", "SP".
       
      12. Remedy ticket HD0000000096207 reported a problem with the error code
      returned by the Lab API LA7QRY. A FileMan DBS error code was erroroneously
      being returned to the calling application. Routines LA7QRY, LA7QRY1, and 
      LA7QRY2 has been modified to use a different name spaced variable LA7QERR
      to return to the calling application any error conditions. Additionally,
      routine LA7VOBX1 has been modified to use another name spaced variable
      ORU message containing patient laboratory results to subscribers of the HL7
      LA7DDERR to handle FileMan DBS error conditions related to FileMan data
      dictionary calls.
       
      13. It corrects a defect identified by MyHeatheVet regarding encoding of 
      the following fields in the OBR segment relating to anatomic pathology 
      reports:
       OBR-32 - Principal result interpreter
       OBR-33 - Assistant result interpreter
       OBR-34 - Technician
       OBR-35 - Transcriptionist
      event protocol LA7 LAB RESULTS AVAILABLE (EVN) as these results are made
       
      The name component of these fields was being encoded with the wrong HL7
      delimiter (component separator). The name component will be encoded with 
      the subcomponent separator per the HL7 standard.
        
      14. To integrate the VistA-Office EHR with the regular VistA system as
       well as adding functionality also available in the Indian Health Services
       system, the GQPR^LA7QRY API has been modified to allow for VistA-Office
       EHR to use data specifically geared toward clinical operations, whether
       in a hospital or a standalone clinic. The use of an Electronic
      available within the Laboratory package. The following subscripts are
       Health Record number as opposed to a SSN for patient identification is
       supported as an identifier accepted as input to this API.
       
       The entry point GCPR^LA7QRY remains unchanged. However, the parameter
       used to pass the patient identifier should contain a 2nd piece indicating
       the type of identifier contained in the 1st piece.
       
       It supports the following types of patient identifiers
         SS = Social Security number
         PI = VA MPI Integration Control Number
      supported by the event: "CH", "MI", "SP", "CY", "EM". See post-install
         MR = medical record number of patient in file PATIENT/IHS (#9000001)
       
       To regular VistA users this modification will not be seen.
       
      15. To support HDR-Historical which uses the GRPR^LA7QRY API to extract
      historical laboratory test results, the input parameter LA7SC to GCPR^LA7QRY
      supports a 2nd piece. When the 2nd piece of input parameter LA7SC equals
      1 the API will return results encoded using VUID's when available.
       
      16. Remedy tickets HD0000000141922/HD0000000148089 reported a problem with
      instructions for enabling this capability.

      Remedy Overview:
      ================
       
      1. INC000000900556 - Result transaction SNOMED code application errors
       
      Problem:
      --------
       
      1.  An application error occurs when processing results if a Systematized
      An application error is generated by a collecting site during processing 
      of incoming result transactions if the collecting site does not have a 
      SNOMED code on file for the topography and the host site sends a SNOMED 
      code.  Because of the application error, the HL7 table 0070 is not being
      checked to determine if the topography sent by the host site is valid.
       
      Resolution:
      -----------
       
      Routine LA7VIN4 is modified to not generate an application error if the 
          Nomenclature of Medicine (SNOMED) code is not defined on the
      collecting site has no SNOMED code on file but the host site is sending 
      one.  Specimen validation then proceeds to the HL70070 table.
       
      Routine: LA7VIN4
       
      2. INC000000917708 - Override SNOMED code issue on incoming orders
       
      Problem:
      --------
       
          collecting site for the specimen.
      A collecting site may be a non-VA facility which does not have the same 
      SNOMED codes on file as a VA facility.  This presents a problem when a 
      VA facility (the host site) receives orders from the non-VA facility (the 
      collecting site).  An application error is generated at the host site 
      because of the discrepancy.
       
      LEDI software had developed an option (LA7S MAP NON-VA SNOMED CODES) to 
      allow for this situation.  The intent was that a specimen type / 
      collection sample could have an "override" SNOMED code defined on the 
      host site system. 
       
       
      However, the code on the host site which deformats the HL7 order 
      transactions does not reference the file set by the option LA7S MAP 
      NON-VA SNOMED CODES.  Therefore, an application error is generated that 
      the order cannot be filed due to the SNOMED code discrepancy.
       
      Resolution:
      -----------
       
      Routine LA7SMU2 is modified to check the LA7S MAP NON-VA SNOMED CODES 
      2.  Override SNOMED codes are not referenced when processing incoming 
      configuration on the host site for override SNOMED codes when processing
      orders from a collecting site.
       
      Routine: LA7SMU2
       
      3. INC000001080712 - Override SNOMED code issue on outgoing results
       
      Problem:
      --------
       
          orders.
      LEDI code was corrected under ticket INC000000917708 so that the host
      facility will reference override SNOMED code and file the order.
       
       
      However, when the order is resulted, an application error will occur on 
      the collecting site because the host is not sending back the collecting 
      site's override SNOMED code.

      lab files and on to Computerized Patient Record System (CPRS) without the 
      intermediate step of requiring a lab technologist to manually review and 
      sign off on these normal lab results.  This process will eliminate the 
      need for a qualified technologist to manually approve all "normal" 
      results before those results are filed in VistA Lab files and available 
      for clinicians to view in CPRS. 
       
      Each VAMC site will determine which instruments will use this 
      functionality as it can set up on an instrument by instrument basis.  
                           (v)LA*5.2*85 <<= must be installed BEFORE `LA*5.2*88'
      Essentially VistA Lab instruments are set up as either being available 
      for auto verification or not available for auto verification.  If an 
      instrument is set up for auto verification, then a lab result passing the 
      rule set will be filed by the middleware in VistA lab files and available 
      in CPRS and a lab result that cannot pass the rule set will be held in 
      the middleware system for review by a lab technologist. 
       
      In support of this auto verification and auto release functionality, this 
      patch will add two new application proxy users.  LRLAB AUTO RELEASE is 
      used to indicate that the results in VistA Lab were released by an 
       
      automated Lab process without human interventions.  LRLAB, AUTO VERIFY is 
      used to indicate that the results were "approved" by an automated process 
      using a rules based system.

      ------------------------------
      Ensure that all Lab Interface activity has been halted !!
       
      This would include:
      differences between in vitro susceptibility testing and in vivo action. 
      -Editing of an Auto Instrument file entry, 
      -Turn off the Auto Downloading process to prevent the building and 
      downloading of a Load/Worklist to the Instrument Manager.
      -Shut down all LA7UI logical links and any other HL7 process (HLZTCP or 
      HLLP processes) to prevent the processing of result messages from the IM.
       
      This patch may be installed with users on the system as long as the above 
      process controls have been followed.

      --------------------------
      This patch may be installed with users on the system although it is 
      recommended that it be installed during non-peak hours to minimize 
      potential disruption to users.  This patch should take less than 5 
      minutes to install.
       
       
      This installation will modify the CHEM TESTS field (#30) in the AUTO 
      INSTRUMENT file (#62.4) by changing the following:
       
       
        The name of the field will be changed to LABORATORY TESTS
        The screen on the field will now allow "MI" subscripted tests
        The ROUTINE STORAGE (#11) value set by the trigger on the TESTS 
        (#.01) field will not happen for "MI" subscripted tests
        The original ROUTINE STORAGE trigger code has been replace with a new 
        style AD cross-reference.

    DESCRIPTION OF ENHANCEMENTS:   
      This version is co-released with LAB SERVICE V5.2. It contains patches
    upto and including #.
      AUTOMATED LAB INSTRUMENTS (LA) future releases maybe independent of the
    LABORATORY SERVICE package. However in this version all LAB  routines
    have the same version number (V5.2).
    
DESCRIPTION
This a is list of routines and files needed for
with the method of data transmission protocols.  You can usually
tell a direct connect instrument by the routine name being LAnnnnXX
where the XX will need to be changed before running and the nnnn will
identify the instrument.
 
With this release there is also a new error trap for auto instruments.
This trap does not use the system error trap and therefore does not
create any special system problems.
