📑 Clinical Tools

Clinical Tools is a doctor's toolkit for prescribing faster and coding accurately. It has two parts: Prescription Templates for the medication bundles you use again and again, and an ICD-10 Reference for looking up diagnosis codes.

Opening Clinical Tools

In the sidebar, click Clinical Tools (keyboard shortcut R).

The page is split into two sections — Prescription Templates on one side and the ICD-10 Reference on the other.

Prescription Templates

A template is a saved set of medicines — with dosage, frequency, and duration — for a condition you treat often (for example URTI Protocol, Fever Bundle, or Hypertension Starter). Building one once saves you from typing the same medicines on every visit.

Creating a Template

1. Enter a Template Name (e.g. Fever Bundle).
2. Add each medicine using the fields:

1. Click + Add to add the medicine to the list. Repeat for as many medicines as the template needs.
2. When the list is complete, click Save Template.

A template needs a name and at least one medicine before it can be saved.

Frequency Options

The frequency dropdown uses standard dosing shorthand:

Applying a Template in a Consultation

Inside the consultation's prescription builder you'll see your saved templates. Click Apply on one and its medicines drop straight into the prescription — ready to adjust for the specific patient before you print. You can also save the current prescription as a new template from the same place, so you can build templates as you work without coming back to this page.

Managing Templates

• Saved templates appear in the list, each showing its name and the medicines it contains.
• To remove one you no longer need, click the trash icon next to it and confirm.

Templates are shared across the clinic, so every doctor can prescribe consistently for common conditions.

ICD-10 Reference

Look up standardised diagnosis codes by code (e.g. J06.9) or description (e.g. upper respiratory infection) — matching results appear as you type.

• On the Clinical Tools page, use it as a quick reference to confirm the right code.
• During a consultation, search ICD-10 right next to the diagnosis field and click a result — the code is added straight into your diagnosis.

Tips

• Build templates for your ten most common conditions first — that covers the bulk of daily prescribing.
• Keep template names short and recognisable so they're easy to scan.
• Review templates periodically and remove any you've stopped using to keep the list clean.
