Abstract:
A multi-mode system and method for exchanging patient medical record information and data an order for a medical procedure for a patient between different medical information systems for producing medical report data is provided. The system comprises a repository including a first set of clinical data items employing a first set of codes, terms and identifiers associated with a plurality of different patients accessible by a parent medical information system application. A user interface initiates generation of data representing at least one display image. The at least one display image includes a first image element for, in a first mode of operation, initiating execution of the parent medical information system application and enabling access to the plurality of data items in the repository. The display window further includes a second image element for, in a second mode of operation, initiating execution of a child medical information system application for processing a second set of clinical data items employing a second different set of codes, terms and identifiers. A mapping processor adaptively switches from using the first set of codes terms and identifiers in the first mode to using of the second set of codes, terms and identifiers in the second mode and employs a map associating the first set of codes, terms and identifiers with the second set of codes, terms and identifiers in response to configuration data enabling the child medical system application to access data stored in the repository, in response to user selection of the second image element. A data interface is conditioned for using said map in automatically transferring a value of a selected individual data item from said repository to a data field employed by said child medical information system application when operating in said second mode for outputting medical report data.
