Copyright © Siemens Healthcare GmbH, 2020 Upon successful completion of part 2 of the syngo XR Software Online Training, you will know about the workflows: Patient Registration, including both manual and emergency patient registration Patient Data Handling ​Acquisition The following pages explain workflows utilized in the system software: Patient registration Patient data handling Acquisition Before starting an examination, the patient must be registered, either manually or via HIS/RIS. If the patient is registered and a barcode reader is configured, you can use it for patient identification. Learn more about the patient registration in the pop-ups below. Manual registration Learn more about the manual registration. For patient data that are not supplied by the HIS/RIS patients, you can enter the data as follows: Open the Scheduler.   Tap the Add Patient icon. The Patient Registration page is displayed.   ​Enter the demographic data of the patient.   Scroll by swiping, if necessary.   Tap the Clinical Protocols tab and select the necessary Clinical Protocols.   Tap the Exam Information tab and enter the necessary examination data.   Tap the Institution tab and enter the necessary institution data.   Tap the Save button, to start the examination later. – or – Tap the Exam button, to start the examination immediately. The imaging system checks, if the entered patient data already exist on your system. It matches Patient Name, Patient ID, and Date of Birth.   Emergency patient Learn more about the emergency patient. In case of an emergency, you can perform a “fast registration” and enter the personal data of the patient later.     Open the Scheduler.   Tap the Emergency Patient icon. The Clinical Protocols page is displayed.   Select the necessary Clinical Protocols.   Tap the Patient Registration tab, if any demographic data of the patient are known.   Enter the known data.   Scroll by swiping, if necessary   Tap the Save button, to start the examination later. – or – Tap the Exam button, to start the examination immediately.   Later on, you can enter the missing data or correct data. It is not possible as long as a patient is opened for examination. RIS worklist update Learn more about the RIS worklist update. You can find a registered patient via HIS/RIS in the patient/procedure list in the Scheduler: Open the Scheduler.   To update the patient/procedure list, tap the Refresh Worklist icon (top right). New patients from the HIS/RIS may appear in the patient list.  ​Patients provided by HIS/RIS can only be modified once their status has been switched to a local patient. Once an HIS/RIS patient is switched to the Examination mode, they become a local patient. That means, the patient will further on not be regarded by HIS/RIS updates anymore. Barcode reader Learn more about the barcode reader. If available, you can configure a wireless barcode reader for patient identification. When a barcode reader is configured, you can scan patient badges in the examination room and start the examination immediately. This could lead to a reduction of walking distances. On the myExam Cockpit > Devices tab card, you can configure the use of external devices such as the barcode reader: Enable Barcode Reader: Enables or disables the use of a barcode reader. Automatically start exam: Starts the Examination workflow step immediately after barcode scanning. Attribute used for identification: Defines the attributes scanned by the barcode reader to be used for patient identification. ​Please note: The barcode scanner license is available from Siemens Healthineers, but not the barcode scanner hardware itself. In the Scheduler and in the Local Data, you have several possibilities to handle patient data. Modifying patient and study data: In the Local Data, tap the Menu icon and choose Correct to correct/enter the required items. Search function: In the Scheduler and in the Local Data, tap the Search field and enter a patient name or part of a patient name. Importing a study: In the Local Data, tap the Import icon to start the import procedure of a study. Deleting a patient/study: In the Local Data, select an item for deletion, tap the Delete icon and confirm the deletion. Protecting a patient/study: In the Local Data, tap the Menu icon on the right of the patient or study to modify and choose Protect/Unprotect.   In the following pop-ups, you will learn more about acquisition: Acquisition parameters Clinical Protocol Steps Releasing exposure Rejecting images Closing a study   Acquisition parameters Learn more about the acquisition parameters. The selected Clinical Protocol Step is displayed on the top of the parameter list. Depending on the Clinical Protocol Step, the relevant acquisition parameters are displayed and can be changed: Patient Size Acquisition Type Exposure Mode Dose kV mAs ms Measuring Field mmCU Focus     When you have changed any parameters, you can reset them to the settings of the Clinical Protocol Step by tapping the Reset Parameters icon in the Static Tools section.      Clinical Protocol Steps Learn more about the Clinical Protocol Steps. The Examination workflow step contains the assigned Clinical Protocol Steps. The first Clinical Protocol Step of a workflow is automatically selected. The Clinical Protocol Step comprises all the examination and acquisition parameters. In the Clinical Protocol Editor, you can handle the Clinical Protocol Steps on the Clinical Protocol Steps tab card:   Create a new Clinical Protocol Step by tapping the Add icon. Duplicate a Clinical Protocol Step by selecting a similar Clinical Protocol Step (check box) and tapping the Duplicate icon. Delete a Clinical Protocol Step by selecting the Clinical Protocol Step to delete (check box) and then tapping the Delete icon.     Releasing exposure Learn more about releasing exposure. Please also refer to the YSIO X.pree System Components Online Training - Control Room. In the Examination workflow step you can release exposure:   Press the Radiation release button. X-ray is released. The image is processed and displayed.  Check the image. Rejecting images Learn more about rejecting images.
