What does it do?
This protocol is available for users to launch manually to check whether patients are eligible for an RSV vaccination.
- You will need to select patient
- The protocol can be launched separately via the F12 protocol launcher list.
- There are a number of aspects this protocol checks for (in the background) prior to you seeing a message:
- Whether the vaccine has already been administered
- Eligibility criteria
- Allergies or contraindications
- Vaccine declined
- A message will appear (see below screenshots), depending on which route (from the above checks) the protocol has taken.
- You can then select an appropriate action from the message displayed
Why is it important?
This protocol will help team members quickly and efficiently identify if a patient is eligible for their RSV vaccination. This is important because it saves time within general practice, as well as ensuring accuracy.
What does it look like?
See below screenshot which shows an example of the protocol in use:
If the patient being checked is eligible for an RSV vaccination, the below message will show:
If the patient being checked is NOT eligible for an RSV vaccination the below message will show:
There are other messages which can appear when using this protocol, for example, if:
- The patient has a code suggesting an allergy or a contraindication to the RSV vaccination
- The patient has already received an RSV vaccination
- The patient has a code in the last 9 months suggesting that they are pregnant. The protocol advises users to signpost patients to the midwife/antenatal clinic which is the healthcare team responsible for the maternity vaccination programme.
These additional messages then have relevant options after them to support the user in taking the appropriate action.
