For example, if a patient is required to have a repeat Schilling Testperformed six months later, and you wish to save all of the patient results concurrently, labelthe patient ID (for example 123456) 123456A for the first study, 123456B for the secondstudy, 123456C for the third study and so on.Deleting Patient InformationThe patient demographic data will remain in an alphabetical order in the Patient Directoryuntil deleted.
