Templates

Section Purpose:

This documentation describes templates - patterns that feed Template (RDT) prescriptions. It contains information about template properties, its variants, and managing the list.

Basic Information

A template is a ready-made composition pattern used to issue Template (RDT) prescriptions for adults. Instead of composing a formula from scratch, the physician selects a template and its variant.

Each template has the following properties:

Name - the official name of the template.
Peripheral administration - whether the template can be administered peripherally (yes/no).
Central administration - whether the template can be administered centrally (yes/no).

Template Variants

A single template can have multiple variants differing in volume and composition. Each variant includes, among others:

Name
Min vol. - minimum volume.
Max vol. - maximum volume.
Non-protein kcal - amount of non-protein calories.
Amino acids
Fats
Glucose
Nitrogen
as well as electrolytes and other composition values.

Variants are added, edited, and cloned within a template.

Managing Templates

In the templates view you can:

Add a new template and its variants.
Edit an existing template.
Clone a template as a starting point for a new one.
Archive templates that are no longer used.

Importing and exporting templates

The system allows importing and exporting templates in CSV format directly from the templates table.

CSV import - use the “Import” button and point to a CSV file conforming to the required template.
CSV export - use the “Export” button to download the current list of templates.
