Cancelling a patient's surgery

What to do when a patient's surgery is cancelled, and what happens to their PROMs.

If a patient's surgery is cancelled or is no longer going ahead, cancel it from the patient record. This stops OrthoMate sending them PROMs questionnaires for that surgery.

To cancel a surgery

  1. Click the patient's name in the patient list to open their record.
  1. At the top of the record, next to the procedure details, click Cancel surgery.
  1. A confirmation box appears. Click Cancel surgery to confirm, or Keep surgery to go back.

What happens

  • The planned surgery is removed from the patient record.
  • Any unfinished PROMs questionnaires for that surgery are stopped.
  • Completed questionnaires, registration details and consent documents are kept.

If the surgery is only moving to a new date, don't cancel it. Edit the surgery date instead, see Changing PROMs Schedule.
