Chart Structure

Clinical information in the Patient Chart Viewer is grouped into sections based on the type of healthcare activity being represented. Each section aggregates related data from one or more source documents and presents it as a unified view for review.

Common chart sections include:

• Procedures: Ordered or performed clinical actions
• Diagnostic Results (Labs and Imaging): Observations, measurements, and interpretations
• Medications: Prescribed, administered, or documented medications
• Encounters: Patient interactions with healthcare organizations
• Problems and Conditions: Diagnoses and problem list entries
• Allergies: Documented allergies and adverse reactions
• Immunizations: Administered vaccines
• Vital Signs: Recorded physiologic measurements
• Documents: Source clinical documents and reports
• Care Plans and Advance Directives: Planning and legal documentation
• Referrals and ADT Events: Care coordination and transition events

Section availability depends on the content of retrieved source documents. Not all patients will have data in every section.

Section Layout Patterns

Each chart section uses a standardized layout based on the nature of the data it displays.

• Structured clinical data, such as medications, problems, or procedures, is typically displayed in a table layout with sortable columns and row-level detail views.
• Narrative or document-based data, such as clinical notes or summaries, is presented using a card layout with metadata, previews, and source context.

Layout patterns are consistent across sections to support predictable navigation and review.

Navigation and Filtering

Navigation between sections is provided through chart-level controls. Within each section, filters allow results to be narrowed by criteria such as date range, category, status, or source, depending on the data type.

Filters apply only within the active section and do not affect other sections of the chart. Filter availability and behavior depend on the data present in the section and how that data was represented in source documents.

Detail Views and Context

Selecting a row or card within a section opens a detailed view of the selected entry.

Detail views may include:

• Extended clinical attributes
• Associated providers or organizations
• Timing and status information
• Links to source documents or originating systems

Detail views are read-only and reflect the information available from source data.

Relationship to Source Data

Chart sections present aggregated and normalized views of clinical information, while original source documents remain accessible through the Documents section and through source links within individual entries.

The Patient Chart Viewer surfaces clinical information as recorded by originating systems and preserves source context to support review and validation.

Summary

Data and layout emphasize clarity, consistency, and usability. Clinical information is organized into intuitive sections, displayed using standardized layouts, and supported by navigation and filtering controls that enable efficient review of a patient’s clinical history.
