Maximum to Display

The Maximum number of children to display is used when retrieving the search results to be displayed in the results section of the Find Terms view. Once the maximum number is reached a message will appear informing you that the query has reached the maximum number of terms and suggests you try searching again with a more specific query. Running a search with a more specific query will narrow your results as the selection criteria will not be as broadly defined.

maxExceed

Show Hidden Terms

In the metadata table, an attribute is set to determine whether or not a term is active, inactive or hidden. If an item is marked as hidden it will not appear in the list of terms. Selecting Show Hidden Terms will display those items marked to be hidden. For easy identification, hidden terms will be red when displayed in the results list.

Show Synonymous Terms

Some terms may be flagged in the metadata table as a synonym of another term. Selecting Show Synonymous Terms will display both the original term and the synonym in the Find Terms view. For easy identification, synonymous terms will be blue when displayed in the results list.

Enable Patient Counts

The Enable patient counts option will display the total number of patients that have an observation fact entered for that item.

Use Short Tooltips

By default, the tooltip that displays when you hover over an item will contain the entire path name and the tooltip that is specific to that item. Enabling the Use short tooltips option will only display the tooltip information; the path will not be included.

Show Concept Codes in Tooltips

In addition to showing the tooltip, this option will also display the concept_cd associated to the item.

The ability to search for modifiers will not be available if the Disable modifiers option is checked off.
