Unlink a Cris record from a hospital record
Unlink records when a hospital (PAS / HIS / EPR) record and radiology (Cris) record have been linked in error, before events have been added.
- Open the patient record.
- Click the Patient Details tab.
- Click the HIS Details button.
- Compare details to see which patient record should not be there.
-
Select the incorrectly linked patient record from the Cris Patient Demographic History panel.
-
Click the Unlink button.
- Clear the record.
- Search for the patient.
The records are separate again.
Warning:
Do not proceed with unlinking patient records if any events were added to the linked record. See Event Correction.
System Administration: Patient Records
Opening and saving a hospital (PAS / HIS / EPR) record in Cris creates a radiology record.
Every radiology (Cris) record must be linked to a hospital (PAS / HIS / EPR) record.
Unlink records when a hospital (PAS / HIS / EPR) record and radiology (Cris) record have been linked in error, before events have been added.
There should only be one radiology record for a patient in a Cris system (i.e. a group / consortium), and that record should be used by all sites in the group. Merging joins two radiology records from different hospitals.
Records merged in error may have events and images which need to be re-assigned to the correct patient.
When PAS is down, Cris will not be able to send or receive any demographic or event information.
