Brief Overview
Vitals are used to record a patient's health progress across a set of measurements such as their BMI, blood pressure, heart rate, and more.
Investigation Reports allow a provider to manually input the results of particular tests.
Before a provider will be able to take Vitals measurements or record Investigation Report outcomes, they will first need to have configured this within their Consult Settings. Instructions for this can be found here.
Short Version
- Open the Vitals tab within the clinical record.
- Add any measurements taken into the fields provided.
- Complete any investigation reports that you require.
- Click Finish Consult.
Instructions
1. Open the Vitals tab while within a Current Consultation.
2. Use the fields provided to record the patient's measurements.
Note: The fields displayed within here can be customised in your Consult Settings.
