MedITEX IVF Settings

Revision as of 15:25, 3 July 2014

Define your individual structure.

The MedITEX IVF settings are of utmost importance. They allow you to adapt the program to your center's specific conditions and circumstances.

This includes adding or editing existing drugs, manage materials and interfaces to accounting and laboratory programs, definition of incubators, and also organize the cryo storage. The definition of QM/free fields and the content of selected system tables are also managed in the settings.

It is crucial to define the settings fully and correctly before using MedITEX IVF.

Clinic

To edit the Settings of Clinic, click on the menu item System -> Configuration / administration -> Settings -> Clinic.

Tab Clinic.

Here you can enter the contact details about your clinic and see your clinic ID.

Enter and edit the alias of your clinic, as well as the names of the main clinician and other data.

If there are several clinics, you can switch with the "location" button between them.

The disabled areas are filled by MedITEX. If you wish to change, please contact us.

System

To edit the Settings of System click on the menu item System -> Configuration / administration-> Settings -> System -> General.

General

Tab System.

System paths: here you can define which file paths are used for the interfaces of accounting and laboratory programs, as well as the location where the program manages file storage and digital documents. In order to change file paths, click the directory symbol on the right side of the respective row. A dialog window will open and you can change the file path accordingly.

Update table generators: with this button, you can update your table generators. to use this function, please make sure that no one is using the program and all users are logged off the system.

Warnings: you can set the relevant warnings for your clinic (for example “Basis list”). Warnings defined by German IVF Registry (DIR) are relevant only for clinics based in Germany.
In the area "Warnings" you can individually choose the field catalogues that are relevant to your centre. MedITEX IVF can then selectively indicate erroneous entries or missing information with red warnings.

As MedITEX IVF checks data in real time, warnings are immediately shown when switching to another input mask. Deselecting the box “Show warnings immediately” can disable this option.
Only change the warning settings if you are absolutely sure what you are doing. Otherwise, incorrect entries may go unnoticed.

Contract types: a list with all types of contracts that can be issued. With the "Plus" button, you can add a new type of contract. Do this by specifying the name, frequency and amount in the new window. Here, you can also set whether a contract is used as a Standard (template for every contract) or Active (visible templates for choosing in the cryo mask). To edit an existing contract, double-click the desired row. Deleting a contract is only possible if it is not being used.

Edit contract template: opens MS Word to enable creation and editing of templates used for cryo contracts. Only change the content of these templates and never the grey colour placeholders. The program requires them for the correct transferring of data.

Area invoices.

QM fields:

A list of all QM fields in MedITEX IVF.

The number and description of QM fields cannot be changed by the user.

In the example, the field Follicle aspiration is selected.

Items assigned to the selected QM field:

In this column, you can see all items assigned to the selected QM field (Follicle aspiration).

Entries are separated in the three types, which are represented by symbols.

Pool of all available items:

This column displays all positions that have already been defined for all QM domains (QM fields).

They represent a range of items that can be assigned according to the user needs.

Press the column header to sort the items by their names, type or description.

There are several options available to edit the items assigned to a QM field. Read more about it on our <a href="/index.php?title=MedITEX_IVF_how_to#QM_.2F_free_fields">How to</a> section.

Tips for managing QM fields:

Access to settings and the possibility to modify the program should only be given to the MedITEX Administrator/Representative.
Try to avoid the frequent adding and removing of items in the column QM assignment selection. Instead, try to create a logical system in which existing items can be modified in the column QM assignment selection (for example, modifying of material and staff).
Update the QM settings regularly.
Deleting items in the column QM assignment selection can be risky. Try to avoid this and instead only remove assigned items from the column QM domain assignment (right arrow between columns).
You do not have to define times in the settings. After pressing the QM fields in the program, you can determine a start and end time.
You do not have to define comments in the settings. After pressing the QM fields in the program, you can add a comment to all items.
Not matter if staff, material or free field, you can add staff and a list of values to any item. Combine materials and staff in one entry.
