Service Call Records
Module Overview
Module Purpose
The Service Call Records module is designed for electronic documentation of emergency medical service (EMS) calls to patients. It enables comprehensive documentation of the entire call process from receiving the dispatch, through arrival at the scene, patient treatment, to handover at the medical facility.
Key Features
- Recording complete call data (times, crew, vehicle)
- Recording patient personal and identification data
- Documenting patient health status at the beginning and at handover
- Measuring and recording vital signs (BP, HR, SpO2, GCS, NACA, etc.)
- Maintaining medical documentation (history, status praesens, diagnosis, therapy)
- Uploading graphical documentation (ECG, pulse graphs)
- Exporting records to Excel and printing capability
- Managing deleted records
Target Audience
The module is intended for:
- Paramedics (RZP - Emergency Medical Response)
- Emergency service physicians (RLP - Mobile Emergency Unit)
- Mid-level and lower-level medical personnel
- Emergency vehicle drivers
- Emergency service managers
- Administrative staff handling call billing
Settings and Configuration
Module Settings
The module can be configured through settings available in Settings → Service Call Records. In settings you can define:
- Preset text for Status praesens (St.P.) - template text that is automatically filled into the Status praesens field when creating a new record. You can customize this text according to your emergency service standards.
User Rights
Access to the module is controlled through the rights_vyjezdy_zaznam permission, which can have the following values:
| Level | Name | Permission |
|---|---|---|
| 0 | No Access | User has no access to the module |
| 1 | Read | View existing records only, cannot create or edit |
| 2 | Read, Add New | View records and create new call records |
| 3 | Read, Add, Edit | View, create, and edit existing records |
| 4 | Read, Add, Edit, Delete | Full rights including deleting records and access to deleted records |
Note: Rights are assigned by the system administrator in the Users module.

- Click pencil icon or directly on record ID
- Form opens with pre-filled data
- Make necessary changes (e.g., add missing physician number, correct typo in diagnosis)
- Click Save
- Changes immediately appear in main table
Troubleshooting
Cannot Select Diagnosis from Database
Symptom: After clicking in Diagnosis field no results appear, or empty list displays.
Solution:
- Make sure you entered at least 2 characters of code or diagnosis name
- System starts searching after entering second character
- Try entering more specific code (e.g., instead of "S" enter "S72" for femur fractures)
- If you know exact ICD-10 code, enter whole code (e.g., "S72.0")
- You can also search by diagnosis name (e.g., "fracture")
- If problem persists, contact system administrator - diagnosis database might be empty
Missing Pre-filled Text in Status Praesens (St.P.) Field
Symptom: After opening new record, St.P. field is empty instead of pre-filled template text.
Solution:
- Pre-filled text is displayed only when creating new record, not when editing existing one
- If field is empty even in new record:
- Contact system administrator
- Administrator must set default text in Settings → Service Call Records
- In module settings in "Preset text for Status praesens" field enter desired template
- If you have settings permission, you can set text yourself
Failed to Upload Pulse Graph / ECG
Symptom: After selecting file and clicking Save, file does not upload or error message displays.
Possible Causes and Solutions:
- File is too large
- Maximum file size is 60 MB
- Check file size in file properties
- If file is larger, reduce its size (e.g., using image compression or conversion to PDF)
- Unsupported file format
- Supported formats: JPG, JPEG, PNG, PDF
- Check file extension
- If you have different format (e.g., TIFF, BMP), convert to supported format
- Connection problem
- Verify you have stable internet connection
- Try uploading again
- Insufficient permissions
- You need permission level 2 or higher to upload files
- Contact administrator to assign rights
Cannot Edit Existing Record
Symptom: Pencil icon is gray (inactive) or after clicking on record, form opens read-only.
Solution:
- Check your permissions
- You need permission level 3 or higher to edit records
- Permission level 1 or 2 does not allow editing existing records
- Contact system administrator or department manager for rights increase
- Record was created in different company/organization
- Each record belongs to specific organization (Company)
- Cannot edit records of other organizations
Form Cannot Be Saved - Error Message About Required Fields
Symptom: After clicking Save, form does not submit and warning appears about empty required fields.
Solution:
- Review entire form and check that you filled all required fields marked with asterisk (*)
- Most commonly missing fields:
- Date in Basic Data section
- All times (Dispatch, Departure, On Scene, Leave Scene, Handover, End)
- Surname and First Name of patient in Patient section
- Date of Birth of patient
- Residence of patient
- Insurance Code
- Incident Location
- Diagnosis in Medical Data section (at least one diagnosis must be selected)
- Browser usually automatically jumps to first unfilled required field and highlights it in red
- After filling all required fields, try saving form again
Cannot Delete Record
Symptom: Cross icon for deletion is gray or does not appear at all.
Solution:
- Permission level 4 (full rights) is required to delete records
