dartOCM User Guide
Introduction
Ideagen's dartOCM is a browser-based order communications system, developed to meet the needs of pathology and other diagnostic departments in both primary and secondary care. dartOCM is compatible with all nationally recognised GP systems, providing real benefits across the range of requesting locations. The order communications system is interoperable and is proven throughout the NHS with millions of requests processed by thousands of clinicians every year.
dartOCM is a diagnosis/condition-based solution which provides a single requesting process which can span multiple pathology disciplines and other investigation requests. Pre-defined order sets, requests ensure the adoption of best practice and reduce ad-hoc requesting. Clinicians are no longer expected to create an individual request for each discipline/department, reducing duplication and saving a significant amount of time.
All key clinical information is captured electronically via highly configurable, dynamic request forms. Request information is transmitted directly to the receiving department, reducing or eliminating booking in time, and preventing transcription errors.
Demand management support allows tests or investigations to be restricted to specific repeat intervals, or based on other criteria such as age or gender. Orders can also be prevented by configurable rules which can help to identify inappropriate requests contraindicated by the clinical information entered, for example, through the completion of an MRI safety declaration built into the request form, or a CT request with contrast, without a recent creatinine result. These features can prevent requests being rejected at vetting and help to reduce clinical risk.
Authorised users have the ability to view test results and investigations that have been requested by other clinicians across both primary and secondary care for improved patient care. Numeric results can be reviewed in both cumulative and graphical views to assist with identifying clinically significant trends. Users can receive notifications of new or abnormal results via email and be prompted to sign off results to ensure any follow up action is carried out.
Accessing dartOCM
Logging In
dartOCM can be accessed in different ways depending on the way it is implemented, and local instructions should be provided.
For GP requesting, the patient will first be selected from the practice system such as EMIS, Vision or SystmOne. Ideagen OCM will then be launched directly, or via LabelTrace in the case of SystmOne.
In the LabelTrace software, all the relevant patient personal details will be extracted from the GP system. Clicking on the Launch Dart OCM button will automatically authenticate the user and log them into dartOCM. The new order screen should then be displayed.
Logging Out
To log out of the system, click the button on the user banner.
Navigation
User Banner
The user banner displays the current logged in user and their default location. If the user is linked to more than one location a + button will be displayed. Clicking this button will allow the user to change their default location.
The quick search facility can be used to search for a patient by their NHS number.
Changing Default Location
The default location is used to pre-populate the ordering screen and filter other screens such as Reception and Home.
If the logged in user is linked to more than one location the + icon will be displayed in the top bar. Click this icon to change the default location.

Actions
This is a dynamic menu that changes depending on the context of the current page. For example, the image above displays the menu options available when you click on the Standard Reports menu item.
On certain screens when viewing a patient, a ‘Patient Summary’ link will be shown. Clicking this link will take you to the patients main record.
My Patients
This is a self-maintained list that provides quick access to patients’ records that you regularly provide care for.
On clicking on a patient name, you will be taken to a screen summarising all the requests that have been made for this patient along with a list of all results that have been received for this patient.
Creating a New Order
dartOCM allows you to create a single order across multiple pathology disciplines and diagnostic investigation departments. Once submitted, the order is automatically separated into individual requests for each discipline/department for processing.
If dartOCM has been launched from a separate clinical system, such as a GP practice system, clinical portal or EPR, the patient details, Requesting Clinician and Location should have been pre-populated. If not, enter the patients NHS Number or Hospital Number and click Auto Fill to search for an existing patient record. If an existing record is not found, full patient demographic information must be entered to continue.
To create a new order when dartOCM is being accessed directly, select New Order Request from the Main Menu.
Entering Patient Demographics
dartOCM can be configured to restrict the editing of patient demographic information. If a patient originated from a separate clinical system such as a GP practice system, clinical portal or EPR, the patient will not be editable through dartOCM. If a patient was created through dartOCM, the patient will be editable.
If dartOCM has been launched from a separate clinical system, such as a GP practice system, clinical portal or EPR, the ordering screen will be loaded with patient details, Requesting Clinician and Location pre-populated with patient demographic fields being displayed as read-only. When the request is saved, your user details will be flagged as originating from a clinical system.
If you are creating a new order directly within dartOCM, the NHS Number may be the only field that is editable.
To populate the patient details, you must first enter an NHS Number and click Auto Fill. If the patient is flagged as originating from a clinical system, the patient demographic information will be displayed as read-only.
If the NHS or Hospital number matches more than one patient, the user will be shown all the matching patients and prompted to select the one they want.
If you are permitted to add a new patient, add the patient demographic information and the new patient will be added when the order is submitted.
If the NHS number is for a patient not flagged as originating from a clinical system, the patient demographic information will be editable to allow you to make changes to the patient details held within dartOCM.
If the patient is not present in dartOCM the form will display textboxes for the manual entry of patient demographics.
Note – when manually entering dates into fields in dartOCM, it is best practice to enter the year as 4 digits. If you enter a 2-digit year between that is valid for the current century, for example 00 to 17 in 2017, it will be automatically prefixed with “20”. If you enter a year not valid for the current century, for example, 18 to 99 in 2017, it will be automatically prefixed with “19”.
If you update a patient’s demographic information in the clinical system and that patient already exists in dartOCM, the patient demographics are updated in dartOCM when you next create a request.
If you make a request via a clinical system and the patient matches a patient manually entered into dartOCM, the manually entered patient will be updated with the details from the clinical system and flagged as such. The initially manually added patient will no longer be editable via dartOCM.
If you manually add patient demographics which match a patient already known to dartOCM two things may happen:
1. If the existing patient is not flagged as originating from a clinical system the existing patient is updated with the new details.
2. If the existing patient is flagged as originating from a clinical system, you will be prompted with a warning. You will be given the option to load the patient demographics from the existing patient to be used in the request. If you choose not to load the existing patient demographics, the request will not be saved.
Selecting Tests/Investigations
The quickest way to create a new order is to select one or more of the pre-defined favourite test order sets, or an investigation-based order set. Full lists of test/investigation are available via the different discipline/department tabs at the top of the order screen.
Note – all tabs can be re-ordered by dragging and dropping into place.
Test Type Confirmation
Tests that require a sample can be associated with more than one discipline, more than one specimen type and potentially more than one specimen site if enabled. If a test has more than one association, it must be selected before the test can be requested. When you select a test that has more than one association, the system will prompt you to select which discipline, specimen type, or specimen site they require.
In the above example, the test ‘ANCA’ has been selected and the test type confirmation dialogue has appeared. This is because this test is linked to two different specimen types, ‘Blood’ and ‘Citrated Blood’.
Once the desired discipline, specimen type, or specimen site have been confirmed, click OK to continue the test selection. Click Cancel to cancel the selection of the test.
Favourite Tests
Favourite tests allow the quick selection of pre-defined, regularly used tests. Ideagen OCM supports the configuration of the types of favourite tests:
• Global – configured by a system administrator, available to all system users
• Location – configured by a system administrator, available to all users within an individual location
• Personal – configured by an individual user with appropriate permissions
All favourite tests will be displayed in one or more tabs below the main tab list. Within an individual tab, there will be one or more order sets. To select all tests/investigations in a single order set, click Select All within the order set box. To select all tests/investigations across all order sets, click Select All at the bottom right hand corner of the test selection panel.
Investigation Based Order Sets
Investigation based order sets work in a similar way to favourite tests and are also pre-defined by a system administrator. First select a presenting complaint/diagnosis from the drop-down list. One or more order sets with then be displayed below the drop-down. To select all tests/investigations in a single order set, click Select All within the order set box. To select all tests/investigations across all order sets, click Select All at the bottom right hand corner of the test selection panel.
Discipline/Department Based Test Lists
It is possible to add individual tests/investigations to an order, including adding tests/investigations after selecting one or more order sets from the favourite or investigation tabs.
Select the appropriate discipline/department tab. Depending on the configuration of the discipline/department, you may be presented with various drop-down boxes to filter based on specimen type, specimen site and examination type. A free text filter is also displayed to allow you to type all or part of a test/investigation name to find it in the list.
Select the test(s)/investigation(s) you want to add to the order.
Order Basket
Tests/investigations selected will be added to your order basket.
To view additional details about the test/investigation, such as discipline, sample type and last test date, hover your cursor over the test/investigation name.
To access additional information about the test/investigation, click the hyperlink button . Note – links must have been configured by a system administrator.
For Pathology tests, a coloured square may be displayed to denote the colour of the tube top that should be used when collecting the sample.
To remove an individual test/investigation from the list, click the name and click OK on the confirmation box.
To remove all tests/investigations from the basket, click the button.
To save all tests/investigations in the basket as a new personal favourite test list, click the button.
To hide the order basket, click the toggle button.
Order Questions
As tests/investigations are added to the order, relevant questions will appear at the bottom of the screen. This may be a combination of question types, some of which may have follow up questions, some may be mandatory, and providing a particular answer to a question may prevent you from completing the order as it may be inappropriate or pose a patient safety risk. For example, making a request for an MRI and answering “Yes” to a question relating to the presence of a pace maker. The actual questions displayed will be dependent on local configuration. An example set of questions is shown below.
Note – if you navigate away from the ordering screen, your draft order will be preserved. To return to the order, click Finish Order from the main menu, or click the button to delete the order.
Submitting an Order
Once the order is complete, click the Save and Process button to complete the request and go to the processing steps or click the Save button to save the request for later, without printing or processing.
Note – these buttons may have different labels depending on local configuration.
Ordering Rules
dartOCM allows system administrators to configure various rules to prevent inappropriate or excessive requests and to provide guidance. These include:
Test Guidance - free text information that may be useful for the requestor. Displayed when the associated test/investigation is added to an order.
Repeat Test Warnings - minimum intervals between tests to prevent excessive requesting.
Age/Gender Constraints - age and gender constraints to prevent inappropriate requests.
Mutually Exclusive Tests - constraints to prevent two similar tests from being added to the same order.
Linked Tests - additional test(s) automatically added on the selection of an associated test.
Processing Orders
The Process Orders option in the Main Menu may be used at various stages following the submitting of a new order, depending on the process/workflow configured for a particular diagnostic discipline/department.
Due to the flexibility in the configuration of the process/workflows, the options available on this screen will vary between implementations, and between diagnostic disciplines/departments.
The Process Orders screen may be accessed immediately after submitting an order if the Save and Process button is pressed on the Order Screen.
Note – this button may have a different label depending on local configuration.
Printing Forms and Labels
dartOCM process workflows can be configured, by diagnostic discipline/department, to be fully paperless, or produce a variety of printed media such as pre-cut label sheets, appointment cards or thermal barcode labels.
Forms and labels will be automatically displayed to be printed for all request types that have been configured to output printed media.
If configured as part of the process workflow, it is also possible to return to the Process Orders screen to print additional labels if required.
Note – depending on the status of the request, some options may not be available.
Patient & Requests Search

Note – the filters available will be different when listing Requests and Orders.
Printing Queues
Printing queues allow requests to be held for printing at a later date or in another location, for example, centralised printing of Radiology requests within the department, or adding pathology requests to a phlebotomy queue to allow the phlebotomist to print a form or labels when they collect samples from the patient.
There are currently four queues available. Requests will only appear on these queues if configured to do so by a system administrator, based on particular triggers built into the process workflow, for example, an “Add to phlebotomy list” action.
Phlebotomy Printing
By default, all outstanding phlebotomy requests for the selected location will be displayed.
Select a different location or enter an NHS number or hospital number and click Search to filter requests.
The options available will be dependent on the process workflow configured by a system administrator. This could include a combination of option buttons, questions or automatic processing steps. To process a single request, select the appropriate option for that request, for example, “Collect Sample” and click the Process Requests button. To process multiple requests at once, select the appropriate option for each request and click the Process Requests button. The options available for processed requests will change and may show the new status, for example, “Sample Collected”.
If the process workflow has been configured to audit recently printed requests, they can be viewed by clicking the Audit button.
