Name

The name of the assessment report template.

Conditions for Activating Template

Configures which events cause the assessment report to be generated and saved to disk.

The individual events represented by checkboxes are "ORed" together, i.e. if both the "Visit notes change" and "Wound notes change" check boxes are checked an email will be generated if either the visit or wound notes associated with the assessment are updated.

You can also select the check box "And a condition evaluates to true" to enter a conditional expression that must evaluate to true in order to trigger a report to be generated. The expression can reference any notes field that has been assigned a variable name. This feature can be used to setup scenarios such as only generating a report for "stage 1 pressure ulcers" or "patients weighing over 120 kg".

Report Type

This combo box allows the type of PDF assessment report to be specified.

In most cases this will only have one option (Wound Assessment), however protocols can provide alternative options.

Filename and location

When SilhouetteCentral generates a new wound assessment report it will store a copy in the main clinical data store (where all patient demographic, assessment and image data are stored). However a copy will also be stored in a folder location of your choosing.

One use of this functionality would be to use a cold-feed import utility to import the PDF wound assessment report into an Electronic Medical Record (EMR) system, or for an automatic report printing mechanism.

Macros can be used in the path to allow patient demographics or assessment details to be included in the generated path or filename.

NOTE: It is important to ensure the generated filename structure results in a unique location for each report. If all reports for a single patient generated an identical filename for example SilhouetteCentral would overwrite previous reports so only the most recently generated one would be present in the folder location specified. Techniques to ensure unique filenames are always generated could include

• Including the report generation time stamp e.g. {System,Date}
• Including the wound label and assessment date e.g. {Assessment,Date}_{Wound,Label}

NOTE: Filenames can include all characters except /\:?*<>. If a macro expansion results in a character which can not be part of a filename, the invalid characters will be replaced with underscores.

Filename and type

When SilhouetteCentral generates a new image export it will store a copy in the main clinical data store (where all patient demographic, assessment and image data are stored). However a copy will also be stored in a folder location of your choosing.

The file type dropdown can be set to output either JPG or PNG image types.

Macros can be used in the path to allow patient demographics or assessment details to be included in the generated path or filename.

NOTE: Filenames can include all characters except /\:?*<>. If a macro expansion results in a character which can not be part of a filename, the invalid characters will be replaced with underscores.
