BP entry in Sophies |
When you save BP data using a 246 code the data is in fact saved using 2469
and 246A for the systolic and diastolic numerics. You don't see these codes on
the surface but that's the way the numerics are stored on the database. This
works fine in SOPHIE so long as you store the BP values using S and D for the
'held values'. The storage mechanism is quite obvious when you run a report
which includes a 246 code and you will find the systolic and diastolic codes
appear on separate lines.
The practical way forward is to continue to use the 246 codes in SOPHIE, but
don't use a code to exit the question when you generate the numeric for the
systolic - just make sure you use S for the held value. In the very next
question use D to hold the value for diastolic AND use a 246 code as the exit
code. The SOPHIE will grab the S and D values, put them together under whichever
246 code you want (but actually store them using 2469 and 246A)!!
