TIU Package API

TIU API

The TIU package deals with medical records, i.e. progress notes, discharge summaries etc. etc.

No documentation of an API was created with the TIU package. The purpose of this page will be to document some entry points, for those needing an API. This page will be used as a workspace, as the interdependencies etc. are explored.

                               from which to select a title
        [by ref] [SUCCESS] --> Boolean flag returned as IFN when a
                               record is created, or 0 when record
                               creation fails

                  [NOSAVE] --> Boolean flag to suppress saving the data
                               (e.g., when testing new Boilerplates
                               using DDEF action TRY, etc.).
         [by ref] [TIUNDA] --> array of form: TIUNDA(IFN)="".
                               Used in SHOW NOTES ACROSS PATIENTS.
                               See TIURC, which sets TIUONCE.
                               Also used in TIUEDIM, for mult pts.
                 [TIUSNGL] --> Boolean flag to create only ONE note

                               TIUTYP(1) = 1^title IFN^title name,
                               where 1 for us is just a positive #
