OpenMRS Lab Tracking Application

Description

The Lab Tracking Application is a stand-alone Pathology application that can be used within the current EMR. This app can be used to request tests that need to be performed on a patient and track the tests as the specimen is taken and then updated with results. The test details are viewable both at a patient level and when monitoring the entire lab process.

Data Model

• Order

  • Ordering Encounter
    • Obs
      • Procedures that are ordered (coded and non-coded)
  • Order Number
  • Concept - Pathology Procedure Ordered
  • Other built-in order information (dates, instructions, care setting etc…)

• Specimen Encounter

  • Obs
    • Test Order Number (this is what links this specimen encounter to the order and ordering encounter)
    • Information from the clinician who performed the procedure (specimen details, accession number, clinical history, suspected diagnosis, dates etc…)
    • Information about the results (date, result notes, uploaded file)

JavaScript tests

The AngularJS code in omod/src/main/webapp/resources/scripts has unit tests in omod/src/test/js, run with Vitest in a jsdom browser environment. src/test/js/setup.js loads AngularJS 1.5.8 (the version uicommons serves), angular-mocks and the app's component scripts. Use createInjector(...) to get the app's services in a test.

• mvn install runs them in the test phase (skip with -DskipTests).
• For quicker runs, from omod/: npm test, or npm run test:watch to re-run on changes.

Tests run in the America/New_York timezone, so date code that only works in UTC fails.
