| DESCRIPTION OF ENHANCEMENTS |
The patch addresses three (3) issues:
the verification of results marked as Not Performed.
NOTE: Kernel patches must be current on the target system to avoid
problems loading and/or installing this patch.
1. Use the 'INSTALL/CHECK MESSAGE' option of the PackMan menu. This
option will load the KIDS patch onto your system.
2. The patch has now been loaded into a Transport global on your
system. You now need to use KIDS to install the transport global.
3. On the 'Kernel Installation & Distribution System' Menu (KIDS),
select the 'Installation' menu.
4. Use the 'Verify Checksum in Transport Global' option and verify
that all routines have the correct checksums.
5. 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
Associated NSR(s):
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.
6. Use the 'Install Package(s)' option under the 'Installation' menu
and select the package 'LR*5.2*438'.
------------------
If prompted 'Want KIDS to INHIBIT LOGONs during the install? YES//,
choose 'NO'.
If prompted 'Want to DISABLE Scheduled Options, Menu Options, and
Protocols? YES//', choose 'NO'.

Remedy Overview:
================
1. INC000000500271 - MRSA Testing on Death
Problem:
patients but they are allowed to proceed through the accessioning process
--------
Laboratory staff indicates that they are not able to perform MRSA testing
on patients who are deceased. The application will not allow them to
accession specimens or enter results for the MRSA test on deceased
patients. Further, the user is allowed to progress through the
accessioning session without an early warning that an order has been
canceled.
Resolution:
-----------
without an early warning that the test has been cancelled.
To avoid having MRSA tests cancelled at either patient death or
discharge, the desired test should be added as an Exempt Orderable Item
for the Death and/or Discharge event in the Delayed Orders/Auto-DC Set-up
function.
Additionally, the routine LROE is modified to provide clear, early
feedback to the user that a test has been cancelled and will not be
accessioned.
2. INC000000069164 - LRGEN Missing Results
2. LRGEN skips rows of results when the SITE/SPECIMEN prompt is
Problem:
--------
The defect occurs when using the LRGEN option (General report for
selected tests) and when there are more than six (6) analytes on the
selected tests. When the SITE/SPECIMEN prompt is answered with the
default (ANY), the application only displays the first set of headings
and results - that is: it only properly displays the first six results
and skips the remaining results. This typically occurs on the results
for the last date of service. Though no results are displayed,
answered with the default (ANY) and it frequently displays/prints
unnecessary headers are displayed or printed.
Resolution:
-----------
Multiple modifications and the addition of a function to routine LRGEN1,
correct the missing results and unnecessary header issues.
3. INC000000937699 - Group Verify Ignoring NP
Problem:
unnecessary headers.
--------
When Group Verify (GA) is used to verify results for a Work Load Area
that contains accessions that have tests that have been marked as Not
Performed on a prior date, the option can erroneously verify results that
may have been entered for the accession.
Resolution:
-----------
A modification to routine LRGV2 prevents the verification of any results
that may be associated with Not Performed test(s).
3. Under certain circumstances, the Group Verify (GA) option allows
