Can the procedure be searched by typing "SPLEEN" without making any changes?

The ability to search for a procedure by typing "SPLEEN" without making any changes indicates that the system is designed to recognize keywords associated with medical procedures. In many electronic health record systems, including Epic’s OpTime, searching for procedures typically allows the user to input a term directly related to the medical context, such as "SPLEEN." Such a feature enhances usability by providing clear and quick access to relevant procedures without additional steps.

This functionality is crucial for efficient navigation and is intended to streamline the user experience, especially in high-pressure environments like operating rooms where time is of the essence. The system should be able to retrieve results based purely on the keyword input, assuming it is a valid term recognized within its database.

The alternatives in the question may refer to restrictions in specific scenarios, such as needing permissions for certain types of searches or only being able to search within a limited context (like an outpatient system). However, if the question emphasizes the capability of searching without alterations, the system should inherently allow for that direct search feature for common medical terms such as "SPLEEN."
