Hi Dave; Thanks for your quick reply.The explanation u are giving does answer some of my questions but u didn't answer the following questions relevant to Samples collected by Lab technician.
- If a patient delivers a blood from it varous tests(rbc,hgb,Hematocrit...) are examined and stool from where parasites are found.Then,in sampleLabEntry are u considering blood and stool as samples?If yes, are theirs sampleIds saved in Order table as Accession number values? - If the SampleIds are not assigned to the above samples(Stool and Blood),I would like u explain me if are sampleId assigned to the tests(Hematocrit,hbg,rbc..) to be examined from the released samples by patient? - In SimpleLabEntry, is the sample date defined as ordering date?If not where this sample date is taken from??
