Release Notes

Week of April 22, 2024

What's New

Several enhancements to our Patient Onboarding product!
- Added filtering to the Documents page, aligning functionality with other pages.
- Show or hide encounters with incomplete records. By default, we will not show a record if any two of the following data elements are missing: start date, facility name or facility address, and clinical notes. But, if there are only notes available, Particle will (by default) display that record.
- Show or hide labs with incomplete records. By default, Particle will not show a record if any of the following data elements are missing: name, value or date, or if there are only OID values in the value field.
- Search for data by using ‘from’ → ‘to’ date filters. Users now have more flexibility to find the data they are looking for.
- Search is enabled for ‘Conditions’ on the ‘Patient Overview’ page.
- Allergies data has been moved from the ‘Patient Overview’ page to its own ‘Allergies’ page.
- Ability to print data from the CCDA viewer on the ‘Documents’ page. Users can expand/collapse data in the viewer and reorder the displayed data, choosing what they want to view (or, print) and how they want to display it.

Bug Fixes

Fixed an issue where the date sort was not working properly on the Documents page in Patient History UI. We were incorrectly treating the ‘Date’ as a string field and not a date.

Coming Soon

Data normalization that will enrich clinical data. Normalization will pull disparate codes and descriptive text (for medication, lab, procedure, problem domains) into a commonly understood vocabulary.
