New features

1. Advanced questionnaires

Organisations can now use our new FHIR Questionnaire endpoint and $send-questionnaire-request operation to retrieve Questionnaire resources and send advanced questionnaires to patients. Advanced questionnaires deliver improved functionality over PKB’s existing consultations feature, including calculated fields, branching, coded data and can be answered by unregistered as well as registered patients. Support for retrieval of QuestionnaireResponses will be released later this week.

Currently, advanced questionnaires can only be sent via PKB’s APIs and will not be visible in the patient’s PKB record. We have now started the next phase of work to introduce this functionality into the UI.

If your organisation would like to use advanced questionnaires, please speak to your Success PM.

Bugs

1. Language selection on the ‘Choose password’ screen

We have added a missing Language selector on the ‘Choose password’ page to enable self-registering patients to change the language of the page.

Bugs

1. Team selector

We have resolved an issue with the display of roles in the team selector affecting users who were both a professional and coordinator in the same team. It now correctly highlights the chosen role. For more info please see PKB Manual - Register as a professional.

...

A new privacy label of ‘not set’ will be applied to incoming FHIR data upon aggregation where a privacy label is not provided and a privacy mapping doesn’t already exist. Data with a ‘not set’ privacy label will only be visible to the patient and users who have access to all other privacy labels (general, mental, sexual, social). Datapoints with a ‘not set’ privacy label will have no privacy label beside it in the UI for the moment.

1. HL7 medications

We have resolved an issue where HL7 updates containing medications were being silently ignored if the provided frequency (in the ZRX1 field of an ADT A28 message) was unsupported. If an unsupported frequency is provided, the message will no longer be ignored and the provided string (e.g. “every 96 hours”) will be displayed in the UI.

...

Only a preview of a textual test result will be displayed in the notifications panel, where the full length value would spread over multiple lines. Previously, the full text was displayed.

Bugs

1. HL7 ADT A28 message processing

...

On the Plans page, if a coordinator or professional clicks to export 'All' plan responses, the resulting CSV now includes columns for primary email, Plan ID, and national ID type e.g. NHS number.

Bugs

1. Plans

We have resolved an issue that meant non-ASCII characters ( e.g. á) would show as '?' in the plan export. Non ASCII characters will now show in exported plans.

...

• When calling the API

  • Medication.orderDate has been removed, along with ApiMedication.notedTimestamp

  • Calls to POST /v1/medications will continue to work if notedTimstamp has been provided; the value will be silently ignored

• What is returned

  • notedTimestamp will no longer be returned from any API call

Bugs

1. Measurements

We have resolved an issue which meant that ‘Weight (kg)’ measurements over 100kg could not be recorded to the precision of 1 decimal point. Previously, these weights were being rounded to the nearest kg, but are now rounded to the nearest 0.1kg.
