# Pending Results

> Review and link unsolicited lab results to patient charts, or reject results with a documented reason.

The Pending Results screen displays the queue of unsolicited lab results awaiting clinical review and linking to patient charts, accessible at `/cl/pending-results`.

## Overview

The page renders a `PendingLabResultsQueue` component that fetches pending lab results via `usePendingLabResults`. Each result in the queue is displayed as a table row with columns: Lab name (from `cl_reference_labs`), LOINC Code, External Order ID, number of result items, Received date, and Expiry date. Two actions are available per row: **Link** — opens `LinkPendingResultDialog` to associate the result with a patient chart; **Reject** — opens a confirmation dialog requiring a typed rejection reason before the result is dismissed via `useRejectPendingResult`. The queue shows skeleton rows while loading and an inline error message on failure. When the queue is empty, the message "Queue is clear — No unsolicited lab results pending review." is shown.

## Who it's for

Requires permission: `cl.results.manage`

## Before you start

* Your account must have the `cl.results.manage` permission.
* Results appear automatically when the lab integration delivers unsolicited results to the organization.

  </Step>

  <Step title="Review a result">
    Read the table row: Lab name, LOINC code, external order ID, result count, received timestamp, and expiry date (if set).
  </Step>

  <Step title="Link a result to a patient chart">
    Click "Link" on the result row to open the link dialog and associate the result with the correct patient chart.

## Key concepts

<AccordionGroup>
  <Accordion title="Unsolicited results">
    Results in this queue were received from a reference lab without a matching outbound order in the system. They require manual review before being associated with a patient record.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="Result expiry">
    When an `expires_at` date is present on a result, the expiry date is shown with a clock icon. SME: confirm expiry handling behavior.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="Empty state">
    "Queue is clear — No unsolicited lab results pending review."
  </Accordion>
