To make your selections:

Dates: Radio buttons allow for shortcuts to date selection.  Choose from Today, Yesterday, This week and This month to automatically insert the relevant dates.  However, you may wish to choose alternative dates, and the two date fields can be adjusted manually.

Additional fields:

The additional fields self-explanatory, and the selection may be made from the drop-down list.  However, the Indication field has three separate lists for each of the three localities listed above this field.  These three locations include Outpatient / Inpatient, Intraoperative and Critical Care.  Depending on the selection of these three options in the radio button, the list will refresh in the Indication field.

 

When complete, click the Advanced Search button or Alt + s, and echocardiography studies and patients matching these criteria, will be displayed in the Toolbar. Alternatively, to abort the search, click the Exit button.

If one particular patient is to be selected (including all of their echocardiography studies), then click on the Update Patient button to restrict the results to this patient only

If there are no matching echocardiography studies to your selection criteria, then an error message will appear in advising you that there were no matches, and will suggest alternative ways for searching or creating a new patient.
