Made me think of a wrinkle surrounding "when was the medication
started" (.clin_when) ...
Suppose I provide a prescription, instructing the patient as follows:
- if the current symptoms do not improve by X days
- if in future you should develop
- symptoms of H1N1
- an exacerbation of COPD
- a flare-up of gout
you should being taking
- oseltamivir x 5 days
- doxycycline x 5 days
- colchicine x 3 days
So maybe in this case it is important to not forget that this
medication despite that it is not current "at this moment" could
easily become current at any time after the visit has ended. So I am
thinking that maybe in this case
- clin_when could be NULL
- duration could be a definable interval
What approach to data creation is taken in GNUmed / Postgres... in
other words, when in a widget a user would click 'New", is there:
- a row created in a Postgres table that takes on default values which
are then displayed to the user?
- being not yet committed until after the user clicked "Save", would
this so-called row be equivalent to a 'virtual" row?
- is it known whether the client has the ability to receive schema
default values and refresh them based on contextually-available
information so that without user interaction the user could already be
presented something closer to what they need?
- if the client would default to offer 9as clin_when) the current
datetime and the user would delete this datetime to make the field
empty, would this result in the value being saved as NULL?
