Purpose
- Help administrators, clinicians, and other users understand the features, functionality, and benefits of the Wound Outcome Dashboard to enable data-driven decision-making in wound care management.
Audience
- Administrators
- Clinicians
- Analytical Staff
Why Use the Wound Outcome Dashboard?
- Faster Data Retrieval: Even with large datasets, reports generate quickly, ensuring timely access to information.
- Customizable Reports: Select flexible date ranges and filter by facility, practitioner, wound type, or patient status.
- Comprehensive Metrics: Gain insights into remission rates, average healing times, and total outcomes.
- Visualization Enhancements: Integrated pie charts and dashboards improve data interpretation.
Considerations
- Data Accuracy: Ensure that the data entered into the system (e.g., patient information, wound etiology, and status updates) is accurate and up to date.
- Understanding Metrics: Familiarize yourself with key metrics such as Total in Remission, Average (AVG), and % in Remission. Understanding these terms will help you interpret the dashboard's data effectively and make informed decisions.
- Filter Selection: Be precise when applying filters (e.g., date ranges, facilities, practitioners) to avoid overwhelming results or missing important data. Start with broader filters and narrow down as needed.
- Export Limitations: While the dashboard supports exporting to CSV and Excel, the PDF export feature is still under development. Plan accordingly if you need to share reports in specific formats.
- Performance Considerations: For larger datasets, the dashboard may take a few moments to load. Ensure a stable internet connection to avoid interruptions and allow time for the system to process and display results.

How to Use
1. Access the Dashboard
-
Navigate to the Analytics and Reporting module.
-
Select the Wound Outcome Dashboard from the available options.
2. Apply Filters
Customize your report with these filters:
- Date: Choose a custom range (e.g., last 7 days, previous month).
- Facility: Select one or more facilities.
- Practitioner: Filter by individual or multiple practitioners.
- Wound Status: Choose statuses like “Open,” “Healing,” or “Resolved.”
- Wound Etiology: Filter by wound causes such as diabetic ulcer or venous ulcer.
- Patient Status: Include active, discharged, or null categories for comprehensive data.
3. Analyze the Data
GROUPINGS:
The dashboard provides rich patient-specific metrics by 3 grouping options: practitioner, facility, or wound type:
1) Practitioner
- Provider: Name or identifier of the practitioner.
- Etiology: Wound causes (e.g., diabetic ulcer, pressure ulcer).
-
Metrics:
- Total in Remission: Number of wounds healed under this practitioner.
- Average (AVG): Average days to remission.
- Median: Median days to remission.
- Total Outcome: Total outcomes recorded for this practitioner-etiology pair.
- % in Remission: Percentage of outcomes resulting in remission.
2) Facility
- Facility Name: Name of the healthcare facility.
- Etiology: Wound causes treated at the facility.
-
Metrics:
- Total in Remission: Number of patients achieving remission.
- AVG and Median: Average and median remission times.
- Total Outcome: Total outcomes recorded.
- % in Remission: Percentage of outcomes resulting in remission.
3) Wound Type
- Etiology: Types of wounds (e.g., venous ulcer, pressure ulcer).
-
Metrics:
- Total in Remission: Number of patients achieving remission.
- AVG and Median: Average and median remission times.
- Total Outcome: Total outcomes recorded.
- % in Remission: Remission percentage.
Filtering and Grouping Example:
4. Export Reports
- Export the generated report in CSV, Excel, or image formats. (PDF export is in development.)
Best Practices
- Experiment with Filters: Refine data views to uncover actionable insights.
- Monitor Regularly: Track outcomes over time to identify trends and inform decisions.
- Collaborate: Share exported reports with team members for collective analysis.
