Request Cervical Cytology (Screening)

Before you begin

Procedure

Click in the toolbar of the patient's Clinical Window.
The Cervical Cytology Request window appears.

Use the following table as a guide to completing the Request form, clicking Print when you are ready to submit the information.


Items of note on the Cervical Cytology Request window
Provider	If your pathology laboratory does not appear in the Provider list, you need to add it to the Address Book. Hint: If you enter this information via Investigations Options you can also set your preferred provider at the same time.
Copy to	If copies of the result are to be sent to any other practitioners (usually specialists), select them from the Copy To list. A maximum of three addresses can be printed on the request form. The names in this list come from the Address Book.
Other Doctor	Is used to generate a copy for a practitioner not present (or normally required) in the Address Book.
Open Gynae Notes	Click this button to examine the patient's Gynae entries in the History and Examination sections of their Progress Notes. These can be added to or modified if required, with changes being saved back to the patient's Progress Notes.
Include Gynae notes on request	Select this check box if you need to add the details from the 'Gynae' section in the Progress Notes to the request form.
My Health Record Consent	You are required to indicate whether the patient has given consent for the reports (issued by the provider) to be uploaded to the patient's My Health Record. The default option is to send the reports (i.e. the check box is not ticked). The reports will be uploaded to My Health Record by the provider - no further action is required by you. It is a Government requirement that you cannot modify this default setting i.e. you must make this decision for each and every imaging request you create. A note indicating the patient's consent choice is added to the patient's Progress Note. Consent status is recorded in the Outstanding Request window.
Reprint Prev	Allows you to reprint a previous cytology request. Note that this only re-prints the request - it does not re-request the cytology investigations.
eOrders	Allows you to access eOrders - a system for securely ordering SDS-based pathology and cytology requests electronically. This button is only available if you have selected a SDS-based laboratory via the Provider drop-down list. See eOrders - Overview See Investigations Options for information about configuring providers.
Other	To request other tests for the patient click the Other button and select the tests using the same technique as when completing a pathology request. Common pathology requests are listed.
Print	Cytology requests are formatted to print on pre-printed stationery only. Unlike printing Pathology Requests, there is no option to print on plain paper.
