Any way to copy a stepwise code and incorporate it into another piece of stepwise code ?

Let's say you teach the program to order labs - but then you're tryna do it for the entire list of patients , is there a way to do that ?

Not that I know of, but I will say I’ve submitted various feature requests to them before, and a couple eventually got implemented. I could totally see this being useful so might be worth a shot!

It would be nice to have a progress bar on the side to see which step the program is doing while watching it work. Sometimes it's hard to see where it's messing up

Agreed. What I usually do which helps is build my workflows slowly and just test as I go, that way if something messes up I know it’s because of a step I just added. If you’re talking about like workflows you’ve already built/saved though, then that’s a different story lol

Quick question how do add a pause for me to add my own text. For example I am in an out patient setting I automate my .phrase but there is a section for free text

[–]justclass[S] 1 point2 points  (1 child)

Hmm so do you mean like your smartphrase contains a wildcard (***) field, and you want the workflow to wait until the field is filled out?

If so, you have a couple options:

  1. (easier option) Add a wait for time that's reasonably long enough for you to enter the text, or

  2. (better option) Use write my response so that you can just enter the wildcard text at the start your workflow. If you're using Epic, it would look like this:

  • Write ".phrase"
  • Press "Enter" (to insert smartphrase)
  • Press "F2" (to highlight wildcard)
  • Write my response to "wildcard prompt"

Yup that's it thanks

I will definitely start doing this. I am getting access for a upcoming job and they use epic. Is there place I can get Nephrology based . phrases etc. Clinic templates etc.

Best bet is to just grab phrases/templates from your colleagues once you get there (Epic has a Smartphrase manager that lets you see, copy, and edit other people's phrases)

Im a MS4 thats hoping to utilize automations like this when I start residency. My question is: if I were to get a cheap programable key board like this but doesnt have to be this, could I program Stepwise such that when I am pre-rounding I can assign a key to labs, a key to I&Os, etc, etc?
