On the recent lab trend card as it is now it shows the trend by panel rather than individual test. We compare the labs for the last year and if the patient had a BMP at most visits but had a CMP at one, the results of the CMP are listed separately so we cannot get a true comparison.
I think you should add a filter in the gear options to show by individual tests or panels, that way everyone has their preferences addressed, still having them separated out by chemistry, hematology, or coagulation for examples. It is a bit annoying having to type in the box to find the trends on my end, but is better then before where we had to use the lab icon to see the full trends.
For Console, we recently made changes to the 'Lab Recent Trends' card that should help with this issue. I am including the release note for that change.
Previously the Lab Trend card displayed test results by panel or stand-alone orders versus the ability to view an individual test. A filter has been added to the top of the card so that a user may free-text search for one or more tests. Each unique test will display the last 4 results regardless of which order or panel it is subordinate to.
I would like some feedback to know if this addresses the need here.
