DID YOU KNOW?

In Socrates you can set up POMR (Problem Orientated Medical Records) groups to categorise consultation items in the patient’s chart. POMR groupings allow you to quickly find all items relating to that group e.g. Asthma POMR group.  

Once setup you can click the POMR Group dropdown list at the top of the Consultation Summary. 

Select the group from the list to view those all consultations which have items defined as this POMR group. 

The list of items categorised under this group are displayed allowing you to see pertinent information quickly. 

How to setup POMR Groups: 

POMR groups can be added from My Control Panel > Admin Console > System Types.  

Select the Other Types tab and select POMR Groups from the ‘Select Type’ dropdown. 

Assign a POMR group to consultation items: 

Select the consultation header from the Consultation Summary and click the Assign button.

The POMR Assign dialog box will appear with all Items that are part of the selected consultation. 

Select the appropriate POMR group from the ‘Group’ dropdown for each item and click Save.  

To remove items from the list select them using the mouse and click the Delete button on the keyboard. 

If you want a reminder to set POMR groups when you finish a patient’s consultation, click Edit > preferences and select the Consultation tab. Check ‘Show POMR Grouping After Finishing Consultation’. 

This window will be displayed when you close a consultation.
