Filtering Data

Sophisticated filtering criteria is available for each data set via the Filter panel.

Procedure

  1. Click the Edit button.

  2. The Filter panel expands to reveal criteria options.

  3. Apply filtering, using the following options/techniques:
    • Check boxes to activate/de-activate specific criteria.
    • Fields that accept input data. Using the example above, we could specify to search for patients "older than 20 (inclusive), and younger than 50 (inclusive)"
    • 'Quick Set' buttons for selecting/de-selecting multiple criteria simultaneously.
    • Rules for applying restrictions beyond the standard set of demographic options.
      • Click to add a rule. You will be prompted to select a data element to add to the filter. Locate and select an element from the lists provided. You can free-type a keyword into the associated text box to restrict this list to corresponding elements. Click OK to confirm your selection.

        The selected element is added to the filter criteria:

      • Click to add a group of rules, and then within each group, add as many filter elements as desired.
