Consumables & Implants
Every consumable and implant used in operations in a period, with quantity, value, lot or UDI and expiry, for cost and implant traceability.
Consumables & Implants lists what was used in each operation. It shows the cost, and lets you trace an implant to the patient by its lot number if it is ever recalled.

A supplier recalled a lot. How do I find the patients? Export the CSV and filter the Lot/UDI column.
