# Create a Clinical Discussion Thread in an Existing Care Channel
## Step-by-Step
{% stepper %}
{% step %}
**From Patients tab, find and select the relevant patient.**
{% endstep %}
{% step %}
**In patient file, in desired care channel, click discussion thread addition icon.**
{% endstep %}
{% step %}
**At this stage, you can modify participating teams, but not individual participants.**
Click Modify.
{% endstep %}
{% step %}
**Select team to remove.**
{% hint style="info" %}
Here, the doctor team is grayed out because the message author is part of it and therefore cannot remove themselves as a participant.
{% endhint %}
{% hint style="warning" %}
It is important to understand that teams you remove from the discussion will not be notified but will still have access to the thread content in care channel.
{% endhint %}
{% endstep %}
{% step %}
**This is what your creation page will look like if you have modified participants.**
You can add message of your choice, a title, and content before sending by clicking arrow-shaped send button.
{% endstep %}
{% endstepper %}

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:
```
GET https://support-en.braver.net/guides/for-healthcare-professionals/care-channels/associate-clinical-discussion-thread-with-existing-care-channel.md?ask=&goal=
```
`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.
The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.
Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
