2022-07-28 Squad Call
Review QA Plan
Review Sprint Board - end very old sprint and start new one. Confirm active work.
2022-07-21 Squad Call
Attendees: Anjula Samarasinghe, Grace (OMRS), Irene (Vol), David (PIH), Pius (OHRI/METS), Vineet (Mekom), Zac (Mekom), Romain (Mekom), Tendayi (OMRS Fellow), Melkam (ICAP-Ethiopia), Makombe Ken (Palladium), Edison, Johnstone, Jonathan Teich,
Docs expectations: Should be some form of ReadMe for every esm app. Esp. if users of that app should know anything about how to configure it. eg: https://github.com/openmrs/openmrs-esm-patient-chart/tree/master/packages/esm-patient-test-results-app Why: Otherwise, folks will fork the code to customize, when configuration was actually possible. If in a hurry can ping Grace to ask for quick docs support. (eg https://github.com/openmrs/openmrs-esm-patient-management/pull/271)
2022-07-18 Product Design Call
Attendees: David, Jonathan, Samuel L, Burke, Wamz, Grace, Tendayi
Demo by David of Haiti EMR pathology sample tracking: Form that creates an order behind the scenes
Upload PDF report: ___
Way to know what needs follow up. Haven't done this for general lab sample tracking, explicitly excluded because plan is for the LIMS system to cover that.
2022-07-14
Anjula: Added more search pieces: Demographics, Person Attributes, Encounters, and Location. Next: Search by Drug Order.
Lack of Dev3 demo data is a Blocker for Anjula b/c can't test the Search Results properly when there are no patients to search! Grace to post on Talk for f/u.
Pasindu: Spinning up new environment for tests: - O3-1316Getting issue details... STATUS
Dennis: Updated esm-core
Updating esm-patient-chart to include all the updates in:
esm-patient-management: working 4.0 branch is out of date at the moment so Dennis addressing that now.
Specifics people should know about changes: See ReadMe documentation.
Another Hackathon with Palladium colleagues: Worked through workflows for KenyaEMR in O3. eg Skip logic in forms.
Updated documentation on how to extend ampath form engine:
Solomon: Working w/ Palladium, applying conversion script to UgEMR forms Bulk of their forms can indeed be converted from HTML to O3 JSON!
A number of features/use case coverage requested by users after presentation about O3 - team decided they needed to do more instead of just focusing on Maternity. So now also expanded to "Family Health": mothers, fathers, immunizations, maternity/antenatal. Multiple bootcamps planned over coming months to work on expanded scope. Goal was always to start in field by start of Oct. Visiting facility next week to do workflow validation, get input from people at facilities.
Need Service Queues call to kick start momentum again.

Anjula:
Styling improvements to search box navigation. Search results clear:
Save cohort results:
Clear search history:
Next week: Search by demographics
CSV results:
SL: Have you looked at the Data Export function where you can select which columns to download etc? Will still be able to use it as long as you save your cohort.All is currently on Anjula's local. Can we get dev3 server running w/ reporting + reporting rest module? Ian was TODO - Grace to f/u with Rafal: TODO - dev3 server works fine and they're theoretically there, but it won't start the reporting and reporting rest modules; not sure why and this is blocking Anjula's work from getting into dev3. This is working in UgEMR
Piumal:
Import:PR: https://github.com/openmrs/openmrs-esm-admin-tools/pull/3
Zac: React Utils error state idea - PR to come. Ian voiced agreement and suggested using the esm-styleguide repo.
Update: Working on Ampath Form Engine - forms were loading slowly. Batch request to load concepts. Came to platform team to ask for help w/ that endpoint; no attendees.
Vineet: Start Visit button in the patient search workflow
"Search patient" component button now available from any page (de-attached from the service queue work)
Ciaran: +++ Updates in Zeplin; everything we've talked about in the last few months are now more clearly added here; eg Tasks label:
2022-07-04
Attendees: Ciaran (Sonder/Ampath), Grace (OMRS), Tendayi (OMRS Fellow), Irene (Vol), JJ (Ampath)
Ciaran mostly away July 11 - Aug 29; responses to urgent messages each monday; everything else non-urgent
Finishing tasks, stickies, help menu, patient flags, new order basket & organizing in Zeplin. Creating design/dev handover materials, change log as well.
Seeing different types of orders in your order basket: This Was user tested at end of last year, just never put in zeplin. Put in zeplin now.
User Testing Findings from Tasks thus far:
Very palpable excitement about tasks and flags in user testing. (All Ampath users, 2 retention workers, 3 clinicians) 2 team members from Palladium also involved in design.
Trying to finalize tasks: difference btwn required vs recommended task; users didn't get the difference in testing. All users asked for tasks to be assigned to a role.
Users were expecting to use sticky notes in a similar way to how they were expecting to use tasks. But, once users saw the tasks, then expected to use sticky notes to share misc. important information (this is how Ciaran expected them to use stickies).
Changed to only 1 sticky rather than multiple.
Editing a task:

React 18 update - Zac Major thing we should do and finish quickly b/c branch is getting bigger & bigger. Need 4.0 branch for patient-chart, esm-home (already done for -core and -patient-management)…. React router 6, faster with React 18, Carbon → Outline of steps here: http://o3-dev.docs.openmrs.org/#/under_the_hood/migrating_react_18
Dennis working on Carbon upgrade of patient-chart - Dennis to push local; could take on the React upgrade for patient-chart
UgandaEMR team met for a focused week last week of setting up O3 to work on UgandaEMR, prepping for an MCH pilot. Worked through some issues with next/latest, found need to release current snapshot of SDK - Ian to f/u. Building an esm- called UG EMR esm, to add all their forms in there then add to distro to add to main module of UG EMR, so once building using SDK, all is bundled together in that esm, then bundled into .war file they can ship to the facilities. Not yet succeeded with .war bundling but HISTAC colleague has solution. Connected w/ Service Queue folks last week.
How do we package using a .war file
Timeline: Sept for last mo of devlpmt, Oct deploy in field for feedback starting in MCH. Start to transition all programs to the new look. By April-May, mainstream deployment of O3 / transforming, training whole country and IPs on new look and how to scale. Will be mix of NGO, public, private facilities. Private for profit, government facilities - representation.
Kennedy Palladium: Frontend mostly done as per designer, now about getting the backend finalized.
Pt Queuing module: Doesn’t have all the features of the new frontend, which is why a new Queuing module was created.
Juliet working on back button in login screen, and “Found x patients” bug where count is wrong, and ID search not working Blocked on O3-959
Surprised, the ID search is working in dev3. Just tested it out with 10001NG - we don’t have FHIR endpoint that can search for patients (right now we have one for name and one for id)
→ Works with REST API but not FHIR API
Should be able to combine with any parameters using AND/OR → Donald and Cynthia tried this when working on Queue workflow search and using AND returned a nul error
LOG ISSUE FOR THIS
PIH-Rwanda general design for oncology single-patient view: https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/1rLR6hDgc1VOs7Pjv9gW1IRC_HxyFsUddbR9S_cJvZCw/edit#slide=id.g12d03522d6c_0_0 Brandon will be working in-person w/ them in Rwanda to set this up as the first IMB-Rwanda O3 implementation.
I'll mention the clinical background and 'most recent text obs' too
PATIENT FLAGS & USER TASKS
2 levels of hierarchy:
High-contrast - need action
low-contrast flags - FYI - things currently true about the patient but don’t really require direct action
Telling user that an action has been done successfully or unsuccessfully
Snackbar notifications instead of toasts:
Pt flags
How could you configure these

O3 Appointments designs: Presentation by Lousa Yogo (Palladium):
Note there are some built-in things to help with Decision Making:
Yellow Flags: help with decision making by person booking the appointment - e.g. with Caroline above, you wouldn't want to book an appointment 6 months from now, because she's already known to have followup/attendance problems.
Load balancing: Help provider choose a date that's not already going to be hectic
Suggestions:
Patient Summary designs: Presentation by Paul Adams (Sonder Design / Ampath)
Paul has been reflecting on the custom HIV Summary widget created by Ampath, which we observed was very loved and heavily used by end users of many types (eg retention, clinician)

Dennis
CI Builds taking 22 mins → 7 mins. Reason: Remote computation caching enabled - so anytime you want to re-run stuff in a cache, it can just fetch them when it rebuilds. (Previoiusly needed to re-run the yarn.build command just within the form entry app)
Joshua Nsereko : https://github.com/openmrs/openmrs-esm-patient-management/pull/136
Dispensing App: This just in: Mike Seaton (PIH) has created a hello-world for the dispensing app! Still some backend changes to be made, some more planning needed.
Updates from the field:
Ampath expanded the 3.x pilot to 3 clinics' clinicians (desktop), and 1 triage nurse (tablet) and 1 receptionist (tablet)
PIH Peru is making the vitals form button configurable with an Ampath form (direct request from PIH Peru!) Brandon (PIH). Socios En Salud (SES / PIH Peru, with @Miguel Andres Huamani Pacheco) need an O3 appointments module.

Ampath shared they are almost ready for the production pilot. 3.x now running on top of production DB. Expecting to go live with patient care within the next few weeks.
Donald shared a few bug fixes and that now Text-based test results (e.g. postive, negative, indeterminate) now showing.
Vineet shared responsiveness fixes for the registration page, and editing of relationships.
Kumuditha and Jayasanka shared accomplishment: Patient search now running on dockerized environment. Fixed 2min load time for some features. Next: get existing tests to run in there as well.
Brandon: re-working workspace extension system in esm-patient-common-lib. Self-contained system with self-contained API. 'launchPatientWorkspace(' function now accepts 'additionalProps?' object. Means groups like OHRI won't have to have additional layer in order to pass props through; can launch props directly on the workspace. Also updates to 'registerWorkspace function' (currently workspaces have been a type of extension; now will have their own API.)
Timeline of readiness: Within next week.
Breakage: Any uses of detach will need to be changed.
