On the KIDS menu, under the 'Installation' menu, use the
following options:
Print Transport Global
Compare Transport Global to Current System
Verify Checksums in Transport Global

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.
