On June 19^th, 3 new clinical conditions were developed into AgileMD Clinical Pathway:

• Inpatient Hyponatremia, Adult (18+)
• Inpatient Anemia, Adult (18+)
• EM DVT, Acute, Lower Extremity, Adult (18+)

The inpatient pathways are intended for use by hospitalists/generalists caring for patients outside of critical care. 

Hyponatremia, Adult (18+)

• Developed with knowledge of the complex nature of this condition for workup 
• Provides initial triage for emergent considerations, including indications for hypertonic saline  
• Provides focus for presentation of acute vs. chronic and safety issues with rate of correction 
• Post initial triage, provides structure for determining etiology of hyponatremia and corresponding treatment 

As of May 22, 2024, variant results from Washington University Pathology Lab for Clinical Genomics Germline and Whole Exome Sequencing tests have been fully integrated into Epic. These discrete results will be displayed in multiple new areas in Epic (Chart Review, Results Review, In Basket, SnapShot reports, etc.), increasing the transparency of genomic results. Clinicians will be able to pull in this discrete information easily into their clinical documentation. Variant data can also be explored using Epic SlicerDicer.

For more information about the Epic Genomics module, see the “Genomics Quick Start Guide” available on any Learning Home Dashboard in Epic.

For more information about Washington University Pathology Lab’s genomic testing can be found here. Further development in Epic for Washington University Pathology Lab-based Next-Generation Sequencing testing of Disorders of Somatic Mosaicism/SOMA is ongoing and will be announced when available.

You can now review User Action Log data in SlicerDicer with new data model  13000-Activity Usage Records Data Model.  You can see active time summarized per hour and the unique Epic activity in which users spent time in Epic.
