Documenting a food reaction

For patients who report a reaction at home, use the structured-data path so it's usable for clinical decisions and audit trails.

Patient logs it first (preferred)

• Heartful Sprout — Health tab → Reactions → log severity, symptoms, suspect foods, notes.
• Heartful Baby — Foods tab → food detail → log reaction on a meal.

The entry surfaces on your Infant Tracking tab automatically.

You log it in a session

If they call before the next visit and don't log it themselves, capture in the session:

1. Capture — note timing, symptoms, suspect foods.
2. Notes — make sure the reaction is explicit in the assessment.
3. Goals — adjust introduction goals if needed (e.g., pause specific allergens).
4. Billing — appropriate ICD-10 for the reaction (food allergy, dermatitis, etc.).

After

• Patient sees your note in their app.
• If severe: prompt the family to follow up with their pediatrician and/or allergist.
• Track future intros on the Food intro page.
