NEMSIS 3.5.1 updates

• We have added a new Performed by Another Unit (eProcedures.15) field in the Procedure Activity Logs. The new field and associated selections will be available in the UI, however, export of the field will begin once your state transitions to the new standard. This element captures whether a procedure was performed by someone other than the EMS unit documenting the event, such as another responding EMS crew at the scene. The distinction is required by the new standard and is not the same as a Prior to Arrival procedure.

  

• We have added 'Approximate' and 'Not Applicable' options for the Date/Time Last Known Well (eSituation.18) field on Page 3. 'Unable to Complete' will remain an option but is being moved to the widget next to the field with the new values. These selections will be available in the UI, however, export will begin once your state transitions to the new standard.

• We have added 'Approximate' and 'Unable to Complete' options for the Date/Time of Cardiac Arrest (eArrest.14) field on Page 2. These selections will be available in the UI, however, export will begin once your state transitions to the new standard.

• We have added a new Languages (ePatient.24) field on the Patient page. The new field and associated selections will be available in the UI, however, export of the field will begin once your state transitions to the new standard. This element captures the patient's preferred language(s).

  

• We have added a new Admin by Another Unit (eMedications.13) field in the Medications Activity Log. The new field and associated selections will be available in the UI, however, export of the field will begin once your state transitions to the new standard. This element captures whether a medication was administered by someone other than the EMS unit documenting the event, such as another responding EMS crew at the scene. This distinction is required by the new standard and is not the same as a Prior to Arrival administered medication.

  

Pertinent Negative Data Validations

We added the ability to create Data Validations for each specific Pertinent Negative field, with the exception of Page 5 Exam fields. Administrators can now enforce requirements for Pertinent Negative fields, defining either specific values or requiring any value to be selected.

Patient information imported from CAD

We have improved the way patient information is imported from CAD. Now when a CAD import matches an existing patient in the database and includes a value for either Patient ID (MRN) or Patient Run ID (Account #/CSN/HAR), those values will be added or updated on the patient's record during the import process.

This change fixes an issue where updated Patient ID or Patient Run ID values from CAD were not being imported if the patient already existed in the Service's database.
