Autotext Dot Phrases for Cerner EHR

All templates, "autotexts", procedure notes, and other documents on these pages are intended as examples only for educational purposes.  Your documentation in the medical record should always reflect precisely your specific interaction with an individual patient.  Do not merely copy and paste a prewritten note element into a patient's chart - "cloning" is unethical, unsafe, and potentially fradulent.

Adequate screening defined by ACS/ASCCP/ASCP is 3 consecutive negative cytology results or 2 consecutive negative HPV results within 10 years, with the most recent test within 5 years. They further state that routine screening should continue for at least 20 years after spontaneous regression or appropriate management of a high-grade precancerous lesion, even if this extends screening past age 65 years. [_] Patient has had adequate prior screening, screening not indicated [_] Patient has not had adequate prior screening, screening indicated [_] It has been <20 years after spontaneous regression or appropriate management of a high-grade precancerous lesion requires screening, screening indicated [_] Patient declines indicated screening BRCA-Related Cancer: Per 2013 USPSTF BRCA-Related Cancer Screening Guidelines (Grade B) Indication: Patient is 18 years or older and has a family member with Breast, Ovarian, Tubal, or Peritoneal Cancer Use 1 of several brief familial risk stratification tools to determine the need for in-depth genetic counseling: Ontario Family History Assessment Tool, Manchester Scoring System, Referral Screening Tool, Pedigree Assessment Tool, or FHS-7.

[_] We discussed approximately 0.1-1.6 per 1000 women (NNT = 1000) will avoid death due to breast cancer with early screening, however, there has been no overall mortality benefit shown. [_] We discussed approximately 510-690 per 1000 women (NNH = 1.67) will have at least 1 "false alarm" 60-80 of whom (NNH = 14) will undergo a biopsy. [_] We discussed approximately 0-11 per 1000 women (NNH = 200) will be over diagnosed and treated needlessly with surgery, radiation, and/or chemotherapy.

[_] I rec'd low-dose CT based on the 20% reduction in lung cancer mortality with screening (NNT 5), and all-cause mortality of 6.7% (NNT 15) based on the NLST randomized trial. [_] We discussed the potential harms of screening including high rates of "false-positive" (non-cancer) findings leading to additional testing (usually serial imaging), which may include invasive procedures. [_] Will continue with annual screening until the patient has not smoked for 15 years or develops a health problem that substantially limits life expectancy or the ability or willingness to have curative lung surgery.
