Event Description

The software product mentioned in this medwatch report may not be, by definition, a medical device; however, cerner has chosen to file this medwatch report in order to voluntarily notify the fda of a malfunction associated with this software product.The company's filing of this medwatch report does not signify cerner's belief or understanding that medical device reports are required to be filed for products such as cerner's powerchart® task list, nor are these products currently actively regulated by the fda.This report documents information related to an issue identified with functionality included in cerner's millennium powerchart® task list.The issue affects providers that utilize the task list to manage workflow processes and support care management by accessing activities, viewing patient data, and document activities and findings.In cerner millennium, when the user views the task list summary, stat tasks are not displayed at the top of their sorted group when task list is opened to the default presorted list.Typically, stat tasks are sorted to allow pending stat tasks to be displayed above other tasks in a pending status by default.Currently, stat tasks are displayed at the bottom of their sorted group.Patient care could be adversely affected if providers cannot easily view the actions associated with performing a stat task, such as collecting a specimen or running a test, in a timely manner, potentially resulting in delayed care.Cerner has not received communication on any adverse patient events as a result of this issue.
