Marking Allergies as Entered in Error CPRS offers two methods for marking allergies as entered in error from the Cover Sheet tab. To mark an allergy as entered in error, the user must have the parameter OR ALLERGY ENTERED IN ERROR appropriately set. Method One Take the following steps to use the first method: 1.     In the Allergies/Adverse Reactions pane, place your mouse pointer over an erroneously entered causative agent and right-click to display a menu. 2.     From this menu, select Mark selected allergy as entered in error. CPRS displays the Mark Allergy/Adverse Reaction Entered In Error dialog.   3.     If your site has enabled the Comments feature, you may (optionally) type comments in the Comments (optional) dialog. Note:      If your site has not enabled the Comments feature, CPRS disables the dialog, which in this case is named Comments (disabled).   4.     Select OK. CPRS displays an Are you sure? dialog.   5.     If you are sure the causative agent was entered in error, select Yes. CPRS removes the causative agent from the Allergies/Adverse Reactions pane and from the list of allergies it displays when you click Allergies in the Postings pane. Note:     CPRS also generates a Progress Note when an allergy is marked "Entered in Error". When this note is signed by the user who marked the allergy as entered in error or by an administrative update user, the note will be viewable by all CPRS users.   Method Two Take the following steps to use the second method: 1.     Select a causative agent (or highlight and press ) that appears in the Allergies/Adverse Reactions pane. CPRS displays a dialog that contains detailed information about the allergy or adverse reaction. This dialog includes four buttons.   2.     Select the Entered in Error button. CPRS displays the Mark Allergy/Adverse Reaction Entered In Error dialog.   3.     If your site has enabled the Comments feature, you may (optionally) type comments in the Comments (optional) dialog. 4.     Select OK. CPRS displays an Are you sure? dialog.   5.     If you are sure the causative agent was entered in error, Select Yes. CPRS removes the causative agent from the Allergies/Adverse Reactions pane and from the list of allergies it displays when you click Allergies in the Postings pane. Note:     CPRS also generates a Progress Note when an allergy is marked "Entered in Error". When this note is signed by the user who marked the allergy as entered in error or by an administrative update user, the note will be viewable by all CPRS users.   Related topics Entering Allergies from the Cover Sheet Tab Entering Allergies from the Orders Tab Viewing Allergies/Adverse Reactions Viewing Postings
