Chapter 6 Patient Management

6.1 Admitting a Patient

The monitor displays physiological data and stores it in the trends as soon as

a patient is connected. This lets you monitor a patient who is not yet admitted.

However, it is very important to admit patients properly. If a patient is admitted

in the monitor, it is advised to discharge the current patient before admitting a

new patient. Or else, the data of next patient will be stored in the current

patient’s data.

To admit a patient,

1. Select【Patient Manage.】smartkey→【Admit Patient】,and then select【Yes】

to discharge the current patient and admit a new patient. The patient info

window will be popped up.

2. Enter or select the patient information:

——MRN: Enter the patient’s medical record number (MRN);

for some measurements, and the alarm limit ranges.)

——Paced: Choose【Yes】or【No】. An icon will be displayed in the

patient info area on the screen when choosing【Yes】, if not, will be

displayed. (You must choose【Yes】if your patient has a pacemaker.)
