Associated patches: (v)MC*2.3*25   <<= must be installed BEFORE `MC*2.3*46'

Subject: EPIP MC REMEDIATION 1.0

Category: 
  - Routine

Description:
============

 Patch MC*2.3*46 amends code from VistA patch MC*2.3*25 that provided 
 invalid diffusion calculations (inflated calculation of percent of 
 predicted) in the Pulmonary Function Test Report. These erroneous 
 calculations made significantly abnormal Diffusing Capacity of the Lungs 
 for Carbon Monoxide (DLCO) measurements appear as if they were normal, 
 endangering the health of patients.
  
 Following release of MC*2.3*25, the Office of Information & Technology 
 (OI&T) developed code to correct this calculation error and provided it 
 to some VA sites. The code was supposed to be released nationally in a 
 Medicine package patch; however, the patch was not released because the 
 Medicine package was placed in Maintenance.
