38.16.1 Treatment Pathways: Base Items (Enhanced)
Use
For SAP ECC Industry Extension Healthcare 6.0 , the base items have been completely revised. They are now more effective, more flexible, and are used in several components, such as Pathways and SAP Ambulatory Care Management.
As part of the revision, the following changes have been made: - No Document List for Document base item type
The Display Document List action has been removed from the Document base item type. The document list is no longer supported , as described in the Document List (Modified) release note. - Availability of new base item types
A range of new base item types are possible with the availability of SAP ECC Industry Extension Healthcare 6.0 . You can find more information about this point in the Base Items (Enhanced) release note.
- BAdI type base item distributed to several base item types
The BAdI type base item has been distributed to the Transaction and Treatment Pathway type base items for user field actions N2_DO_TCODE and N2_DO_ASSIGN which were delivered with Release 4.72.
- Revision of system administration
System administration (transaction N2GD) has been revised for the processing of base items. The maintenance screens for the different base item types have been revised and standardized. The navigation tree with all base items has been enhanced with a grouping level. In addition to a grouping according to the base item type, the user can create their own grouping characteristic. The test function for base items has been removed. To test the correctness of a base item, you can assign a base item with status inactive to a treatment pathway on a client with a Test role. When you activate the treatment pathway, the system checks whether all assigned base items have an active status.
- Graphic input help for base items
system administration. The display borders the system administration navigation tree. - No user-defined Smart Form templates for base items
You can no longer define your own Smart Forms as a template for printing or for screen display. Templates for printing and the screen view are available for the BAdI, Document, Request, Transaction and Treatment Pathway type base items.
Effects on Data Transfer
Base items which were created under Release 4.72 are migrated for an upgrade with the XPRA RN2UX_600_PW_BASEITEMS.
The results of base items which were created under Release 4.72 are migrated for an upgrade with the XPRA RN2UX_600_PW_RESULTS.
Effects on Customizing
To use this function you have to activate the Clinical Solution i.s.h.med (ISHMED_MAIN) business function.
38.16.2 Treatment Pathways: Base Item BAdIs (Modified)
Use
For SAP ECC Industry Extension Healthcare 6.0, the interfaces of base item BAdIs and their technology has been changed.
- Changeover to new BAdI technology
The BAdIs implemented for Release 4.72 have been converted from classic BAdIs to BAdIs within the enhancement framework.
You can normally migrate the created implementation without any problems. You can find more information about this in the documentation for the Enhancement Framework.
- Change to BAdI of the Document base item type
The interface of the BAdI BADI_ISHMED_BASEITEM_DOCUMENT (old
ISHMED_GL_ACT_DOC) has been equipped with methods which can be executed before and after the initial or repeated execution of the base item.
Data transfer now occurs primarily using the context. The previous parameters are however still supplied. You can find more about the context in the IF_EX_ISHMED_GL_ACT_DOC and IF_ISHMED_GENERAL_CTX interfaces.
- Change to BAdI of the Request base item type
The interface of the BAdI BADI_ISHMED_BIX_REQUEST (old ISHMED_GL_ACT_REQ) has been equipped with methods which can be executed before and after the initial or repeated execution of the base item.
Data transfer now occurs primarily using the context. The previous parameters are however still supplied. You can find more about the context in the IF_EX_ISHMED_GL_ACT_REQ and
IF_ISHMED_GENERAL_CTX interfaces.
- Change to BAdI of the Form Printing base item type
The interfaces of the BAdI in the ES_ISH_BASEITEM_PRINT enhancement spot have been equipped with methods which can be executed before and after the initial or repeated execution of the base item.
Data transfer now occurs primarily using the context. The previous parameters are however still supplied. You can find more about the context in the interfaces of the BAdI and
IF_ISHMED_GENERAL_CTX. - Change to BAdI of BAdI base item type
The interface of the BAdI BADI_ISHMED_GL_ACT_BADI (old ISHMED_GL_ACT_BADI) has been equipped with methods which can be executed before and after the initial or repeated execution of the base item.
Data transfer now occurs primarily using the context. The previous parameters are still supplied. You can find more about the context in the IF_EX_ISHMED_GL_ACT_BADI and
IF_ISHMED_GENERAL_CTX interfaces.
Effects on Customizing
To use this function you have to activate the Clinical Solution i.s.h.med (ISHMED_MAIN) business function.
38.16.3 Treatment Pathways (Enhanced)
Use
As of SAP ECC Industry Extension Healthcare 6.0, the Pathways module features some new enhancements.
- Treatment Pause item type
A new item type is available in pathways which allows the modeling of treatment interruptions for an unspecified time, e.g. the unplannable period between preadmission and inpatient treatment. The system initially only calculates the planning data of a pathway up to the pause item; after the completion of all steps, the system will not display any further open steps to the user. If the patient is admitted to a care unit, it will be clear that an inactive pathway exists; by processing the pause item the system calculates the further steps of the pathway.
- Insert module
Modules are treatment pathways which can be inserted into other treatment pathways as copies. You are therefore able to define standard sequences of processing steps and quickly transfer them into the treatment pathways.
- Copy item
patient merge type. The system does not however not copy the connectors. - New version of graphic editor
To model pathways with the graphic editor, you have to use editor version 1.1.0. This version cannot be delivered directly but it is ready for download on the FTP server of the GSD. Availability via the i.s.h.med Web site and the GSD Web site is currently being prepared.
If you should require the new editor version but cannot find it on the Web site, contact Friedrich König and quote your license key for i.s.h.med PATHWAYS, GSD (mail: [email protected] Tel. 0049 (0)30-38370276). We will then transfer the access data for the FTP server to you. - Enhanced base item type
A few new base item types are available for use in i.s.h.med PATHWAYS. In addition, technical adjustments have been made which can influence the function of your implemented pathways. For more information, read the release notes for
- Base Items (Enhanced)
- Treatment Pathway: Base Items (Enhanced) - Treatment Pathways: Base Item BAdIs (Modified) - Treatment pathways in the patient organizer
In the patient organizer, the system displays patient pathways (treatment pathways assigned to the patient) in suitable aspects under the new treatment pathway structure node.
A detail view in the patient organizer is not possible, you can however open the processing dialog for patient pathways by clicking on a patient pathway and then edit the selected pathway.
You can use selection report RN1PATORG_PATHWAY to select treatment pathways using criteria for the names of treatment pathways and to display them in different nodes in the patient organizer. This enables you to display treatment pathways for preventative programs separately in the patient organizer. If you wish to execute vaccination programs for example, you can create treatment pathways for them. To display these treatment pathways in a different node to the treatment pathway that you use every day (e.g. outpatient admission), use selection report
RN1PATORG_PATHWAY.
You should note that you have to differentiate between the treatment pathways by using the appropriate nomenclature. This nomenclature ensures that you can select the preventative programs in selection report RN1PATORG_PATHWAY.
To display patient pathways in the patient organizer, read the Patient Organizer: Integration of Treatment Pathways (New)
Effects on Customizing
To use base item types within the Pathways module, you have to activate the Clinical Solution i.s.h.med (ISHMED_MAIN) business function.
