exp date isn't null, but text field is

Steps in using the flow charts: 

  • Start by asking the patient for his/her symptoms.  
  • Find the appropriate flow chart, stated in the clinical problem box with “Patient Complaints of.” 
  • The clinical problem box usually leads to an action box, which asks you to examine the patient and/or take the history. 
  • Next,  move  to  the  decision  box.  After  taking  the  history  and  examining  the  patient  you should have the necessary information to choose Yes or No accurately. 
  • Depending on your choice, there may be further decision boxes and action boxes. 

Note: For the appropriate management of STIs/RTIs syndrome, drugs in the watch group (azithromycin,  cefixime and ceftriaxone) are the standard recommended for use as a first line treatment for the  most STIs/RTIs starting at the Dispensary level, therefore, should be used only for STIs/RTIs at  Primary HFs)
