Definition
- All FreeMedForms project apps can use the alert engine.
- Alerts are messages of variable importance that are always presented in the same way to users.
- There are two kinds of alerts:
- Non-blocking alerts
- Blocking alerts
Blocking alerts
- Blocking alerts require the user to validate before continuing his actions.
- These alerts are presented in a blocking dialog (nothing else than manage the dialog can be done).
- User must then chose to:
- accept the alerts, which sometimes invalidate his last action (eg drug interactions)
- remind later alerts, when alerts allow this
- override alerts, if this is possible. This action sometimes requires a user comment. In the case of drug interactions, when overriding an drug-srug interaction alert will let you prescribe the latest drug selected despite the interaction.
Non-blocking alerts
- Are warning messages reported by icons and tool tips in the interface.
- Their place are always the same so you do not search for them.
- A color code reminds their level of importance. More important, the higher the color changes to red.
- You may get detailed information of the alerts non-blocking, leaving the mouse on the icon, a tooltip appears with the alert details.
- Clicking the icon takes you to a menu that reminds you of the category of the alert and its wording and allows you to:
- Validate / accept the warning
- To override the alert (when allowed)
- To recall later (remind later) the alert (when allowed)
- Edit the alert (when allowed)
Dynamic alerts
- You can create dynamic alerts. Dynamic alerts are adapted to the context of the application, the patient and/or the user.
- You can use scripts to define several aspects of your alerts. These scripts provide access to the patient and the current user data.
Static alerts
- In contrast, static alerts are executed without consideration of the context.
- They run at a given date for a patient / user / application.
Alerts placeholders
- These spaces are always placed in the same locations to facilitate understanding of alerts.
- The placeholders for non-blocking alerts are:
- for patient patient related alerts, in the “patient bar” below the patient name and photography.
- for the user is ….
- for the application is found ….
- These spaces are automatically updated with each alerts modification, patient changed or user changed.
