The Dose Range Detail page allows you to view the details of a Dose Range record. If the FDB record is Concept Type 6 (Generic Dispensable Drug) you can customize it. If you edit an FDB record, the result is a VA Customization Request. For FDB records that have not been customized, you also have the option of adding a comment that will be retained with the record; if the record is later customized, these pre-customization comments will be displayed with the customized record. Once the FDB record has been customized, a link to the VA customized record (or records) will be provided. For VA records, a link to the original FDB record (if one exists) is provided as well as any additional customizations to the same FDB record.
The Dose Range Detail Page allows you to view the details of an FDB Dose Range and create a VA Customization, if desired. If you are viewing an FDB Dose Range record you will see the 'Edit' and ‘Add Comment’ buttons at the top and bottom of the record. If you have permission and can edit the record, any values changed will result in a VA Customization of this FDB Dose Range.
Note that a Dose Range record can be associated to different drug Concept Types (a type associated in the FDB drug database that PECS uses). They are, in order of Concept Type, as follows:
1 -- Drug Name
2 -- Routed Drug
3 -- Dispensable Drug
4 -- Generic Drug Name
5 -- Generic Routed Drug
6 -- Generic Dispensable Drug
7 -- Routed Dosage Form Drug
8 -- Generic Routed Dosage Form Drug
100 -- Packaged Drug
101 -- Manufactured Drug
102 -- Reference Only Item
103 -- Compound
104 -- Ingredient
105 -- Regional Packaged Drug
106 -- Total Parenteral Nutrition Solution
The important thing about these Concept Types is that PECS can handle Dose Range customizations ONLY on Concept Type 6, Generic Dispensable Drug. You can search and display Dose Ranges for the other Concept Types, but you cannot customize them.
If you are viewing an FDB Record that has been customized, you will see a link to the customized record as well as information on the customized record’s status.
The Dose Range Detail Page also allows you to view and/or modify the details of a VA Customized Dose Range. If you are viewing a VA Customized Dose Range, you will NOT see the ‘Edit’ button. If the record can be modified from its current state and you have permission to do so, you will see the 'Modify' or other VA Approval Workflow buttons.
The only way you can tell if you are viewing a VA custom Dose Range record is to look for specific VA Custom fields. Examples are:
You will also see a link to the Corresponding FDB record for this customization.
Fields that cannot be modified are shaded.
