LINE in the EPISODE_LINK table represents
patient encounters linked to the episode
26
LINE in the PAT_EPISODE table
patient episode (useful when the episode does not have encounters yet)
27
LINE in the EPI_PROBLEM_LIST table
each problem associated with the episode
28
What column(s) in the PROBLEM_LIST table can you use to determine if a diagnosis is chronic?
``` PROBLEM_LIST.CHRONIC_YN = Y CLASS_OF_PROBLEM_C = 2 //Chronic 1-Acute, 3-Minor, 5-Stage I, 8-End Stage ```
29
Which table/column combinations can you use to display the ICD codes associated with a patient's problem list diagnosis?
CLARITY_EDG.CURRENT_ICD9_LIST | CLARITY_EDG.CURRENT_ICD10_LIST
30
True/False: Every row in STG_INFO will have a value in the STAGE_CONV_SRC_ID column?
False. Only stages that were created via conversion will have a value in this column.
31
True/False: If you have stage records in both the 'old' data structure (pre-Epic 2014 conversion) and the 'new' data structure (Epic 2014 +) you need to manually combine the two data sets together to report on all stages.
False. V_CANCER_STAGING table combines the two data sets for you.
32
Under what circumstances is STAGE_EPT_ENC_CSN in table STG_CONTACT_INFO null?
If the user edited the stage outside of an encounter context (i.e. in the Chart workspace).
33
True/False: CL_PRL_SS and CL_PRL_SS_OT contain patient-specific treatment information.
False. Protocol PRL records and their associated tables don't contain any patient specific info.
34
Which table could you use to determine all plans associated with a patient's episode?
HSB_TPL_LIST
35
List the four levels of the treatment plan structure starting from the least specific.
Cycle, Day, Order Category, Order
36
Why would you compare protocols to patient treatment plans?
To understand how clinicians are using and modifying them.
37
Name three things that are contained in a treatment plan.
The Goal for the treatment Information needed for dosing The provider managing the patient’s plan
38
When you change an order, Foundation is configured to match on what order details?
dose, route, and category
39
Explain the difference between TPL_TX_DAYS.TX_PLANNED_DT and TPL_TX_DAYS.TREATMENT_DATE.
Planned date is the date originally laid out, Treatment date is the date stored when a day's status is changed.
40
How might you report on orders contained in TRG_BLOCK_INFO and TRG_DEL_BLOCK_INFO in one query?
Use UNION to combine the tables.
41
True/False: All orders deleted from a plan will be contained in TRG_DEL_BLOCK_INFO.
False. Only orders deleted individually will show up in this table. If a cycle or day is deleted in total, those orders will not be in this table.
42
Which tables do you need to get from the OTP_INFO table back to the PATIENT table?
``` PATIENT *TPL_HSB_EPT_LINK* TPL_INFO TPL_CYCLES TPL_TXDAYS TRG_BLOCK_INFO OTP_INFO ```
43
Which column do you use in OTP_INFO to get the ERX associated with the order template? To get to EAP?
OTP_INFO.MED_ID (ERX) | OTP_INFO.PROC_ID (EAP)
44
True/False: Medication order templates do not appear in the OTP_DOSE_CHANGE table unless the original dose is modified.
False. The initial instance is listed too.
45
The process of creating new child orders from a parent order is called...
Instantiating an order, also 'dropping child orders into the system'
46
True/False: Any procedure order placed during a hospital encounter is considered a standing order.
True
47
True/False: All child orders are created when the parent inpatient procedure order is released.
False
48
True/False: Future and Standing Parent orders are never actually acted upon or resulted.
True
49
True/False: Only child orders will have results.
True
50
Results for procedure orders are generally populated in the system in one of three ways.
An incoming results interface By Beaker By using the Enter/Edit Results activity
51
Which table and column provides a link from order (ORD) record to treatment plan order template (OTP) record?
ORDER_PRFLST_TRK.ORDER_TEMPLATE_ID
52
How can you differentiate between a future, normal, parent, and child record in ORDER_PROC?
Future = FUTURE_OR_STANDING = F Standing = FUTURE_OR_STANDING = S Normal = FUTURE_OR_STANDING is null INSTANTIATED_TIME is null Child = FUTURE_OR_STANDING is null INSTANTIATED_TIME is populated
53
Is it possible for a lab order to have more than one component? Is it possible for a component to have more than one result? Do you need a filter to get the most recent result?
Yes, some labs have many components. Yes, components No filter necessary, only the most recent result for each component is extracted.
54
What is the difference between ORDER_RESULTS.LAB_STATUS_C and RESULT_STATUS_C?
LAB_STATUS_C is for all the components in the test. RESULT_STATUS_C holds the result for each component.
55
Grandparent Orders are created how?
When an Outpatient Standing Order is released into an Inpatient/HOV setting.

60
You are creating a report of medications administered on a particular day. How can you display which medication is being administered?

61
Will the column ORDER_MED_ID always be populated with a chemotherapy order for rows of PAT_LIFEDOSE_HX?
No, externally administered chemotherapy will not contain a value in the ORDER_MED_ID column.
62
How would you determine a patient's lifetime cumulative dosage of doxorubicin?
Check PAT_LIFEDOSE.SIMP_DOSE_AMT where the CHEMICAL_C is equal to your system's configured chemical for 'Doxorubicin'.
