Column Name

Description

Vaccine Group

This column lists the vaccine group name for each immunization received.

 Date Administered 

This column gives the actual day the patient was given the vaccine. Click on the date hyperlink Oct-15-2001 to view the "Explanation of Dose Status" pop-up for that particular immunization. This pop-up window displays the tracking schedule dose rule applied to the selected dose for that vaccine series.

 Series 

This column denotes the status of the dose associated with the vaccine group.  

  • A sequence number along with the total number of doses within the immunization series displays for valid immunizations. An example is (1 of 4) with the 1 being the dose number of the immunization and the 4 being the total number of doses within the immunization series. 

  • NOT VALID will display if the dose given for the immunization series was not considered to be valid within the immunization series tracking schedule rules.

 Vaccine [Trade Name]

This column displays Vaccine only if a Trade Name was not specified for the Vaccine that was administered, otherwise this column displays Vaccine and Trade Name if a Trade Name was specified for the Vaccine that was administered.

Dose

This column displays the dose magnitude.

The dose magnitude reflects how many doses, as defined in inventory, were administered to the patient. This number is not dose size as measured in milliliters.  

Here are some examples:

  • If a single pediatric dose were administered to a child, the Dose column would display 'Full'.
  • If two pediatric doses were administered to an adult, the Dose column would display the number '2'.
  • If half of the usual adult formulation of a dose were given to a child, the Dose column would display 'Half'.

The system will also use this data to determine the validity of the vaccination provided.  For example a 'Full' pediatric dose being given to an adult would result in a not valid in the series column, because the dose magnitude needs to be '2'.

 Reaction 

This column reports any reactions the patient had after receiving a vaccine. A 'Yes' in this column indicates there was a reaction. To view the reaction, click the "Yes" hyperlink and a small information window will open, displaying the explanation of the selected reaction.

 Viewing the Schedule Explanation Screen

The Schedule Explanation Screen is used to display the vaccination rule applied to a specific dose selected. This can aid in explaining why a dose was not valid or why a recommendation displays a particular date as examples. The window displays the table view of the schedule for the dose that was selected. For example, if a user is wondering why a dose of DTaP is marked as Not Valid. When clicking on the vaccination date for that dose, a window pops up displaying the series for DTaP and includes a comment "Greater than the Maximum Age required for this dose" if this were the reason for being Not Valid. The selected dose in the series will be highlighted in yellow.

  1. For a specific dose in the history click on the date administered hyperlink in blue. ( Oct-15-2001 ).

  2. A window will open displaying the series associated with the selected dose.
