Investigations Module
The Investigations module in PatientSource encompasses all the diagnostic tests that patients may be required to have in a Healthcare setting. All Radiology and Pathology tests are supported, including: X-ray, CT, MRI, Ultrasound; and Haematology, Biochemistry, Microbiology, Blood Bank, Genetics; plus other departmental tests such as Cardiac investigations and Endoscopy. Available test suites are customisable by site and by role.
This module can integrate with other healthcare systems to provide a seamless flow of tests, results and treatment to patients. It can also function as a standalone module which clients can use to record the tests they are ordering against a patient, print out labels and forms, create sample records and record the clinical details for the tests. This module negates the need for tests to be recorded on paper therefore significantly reducing the risk to patient safety and improves overall patient care.
