View records

To view a patient record:
  1. On the Home page, on the left, click the Single Patient Viewer icon (This is an icon.).
  2. Enter the patient ID.
  3. Select the Source:
    • All records is the default option. This allows you to search through all available patients in the CDM database.
    • Cohort
  4. Select the clinical and genomic data you want to view for the patient.
  5. Click Submit.

To sort patient or subject data, either click the phenotype column to reorder them, or enter a value in the blank field, at the top of any column, then hit Enter.

In the Diagnosis table, the column Additional Diagnosis Details displays hyperlinked text for coded values of Grade, Stage, Staging System, Primary Tumor, Node Extension and Metastasis associated with the Diagnosis. The tool tip on the text displays the corresponding code names. To see detailed values of these attributes click the hyperlink to display the Diagnosis Details window.

In the Procedure, Test or Observation, Medication and Specimen tables the column Diagnosis Details displays the Diagnosis that is associated with these records.

In the Medications Taken table the column Procedure Data displays the Procedure in context of which the Medication was prescribed.

In the Test or Observation table, use the drop down list 'Additional data to be displayed' to select the columns that should be displayed in the table. Irrespective of the columns selected for display, data from all of the Test or Observation columns is included in the exported data.

In the Diagnosis, Procedure, Medication and Test or Observation tables, the columns Visit ID, Encounter Type Name and Encounter Type Code display the information about the Encounter with which the above clinical events are associated.

To save patient or subject data in an Excel file, click the Export button (Export is a hyperlink.) next to the category title. You can export either all data or just the selected criteria.

Variants can only be exported separately. To do so, follow these steps below:
  1. In the Single Patient Viewer screen, on the left, select the Variants checkbox.
  2. Click Submit. The Variants hierarchy graph is displayed on the right side of the screen.
  3. Click on any nodes in the graph to display the tables with Variants data and select it. These tables show 500 records only.
  4. Along the top, click Export to export the variants. Variants are exported in an XLS file for the selected node.

For more information, see:

Display Variant Found

When the user clicks on one of the top 2 level nodes (Variants, Coding, Non-Coding , Unknown)

  • If the count of variants is less than a threshold value, then the variant table is displayed.
  • If the count is greater, then a message is displayed to select any lower-level node.

Click on the text on the individual nodes to display the table with the variants for the node.

Note:

If there are child nodes, clicking on the + sign will expand the node and display child nodes. However, if there are no child nodes, the graphs will disappear. The user must refresh the page to display the graphs again.

Export Variant Found

While exporting the variants found, if the count of variants is higher than threshold value, user will be to choose a chromosome from drop down list to narrow down the variants.

Note:

If the number of variants that you want to export exceeds the limit of 50000, contact your database administrator. The limit can be modified within the database. For more details, see the Oracle Healthcare Translational Research Administrator's Guide on the Oracle Help Center.

Navigate through selected patients or subjects

To navigate through patients' or subjects' data in the Single Patient Viewer, keep in mind three things:

  1. If the selected patient ID generates a patient or subject count larger than 1, you can navigate through patients' or subjects' history using the Previous and Next buttons found next to the Patient ID field, on the left. This is also available for patient or subject counts generated in the Cohort Query or Cohort Viewer screens.
  2. Every patient has an ordinal number (his position within the selection) listed under the Patient field. If the selected source is a cohort, then the total number of available patients or subjects from that cohort is also displayed.
  3. If you went from the Cohort Timeline screen to the Single Patient Viewer screen, then the total number of available patients or subjects in the cohort is the count of patients or subjects selected in the initial pool, in the cohort timeline.
