Instructions for Use Infinity Acute Care System - Monitoring Applications SW VG1 67
Getting Started
Admitting a Patient using Get HIS
You can populate the Demographics page
automatically by pulling the demographic data of a
patient from the network. The prerequisite for this
network data transfer is the Infinity® Gateway with
an interface to the hospital Admit, Discharge,
Transfer (ADT) system. The Hospital Information
System (HIS) searches the database for the patient
demographic data by using the patient ID.
To admit a patient via Get HIS
1 Touch the leftmost field on the header bar to
access the Demographics page directly
or
Select Start/Standby... on the main-menu bar
>, select the Demographics tab (if not already
selected)
2 Enter the patient ID – use the symbol (B) next
to the Patient ID field to activate an on-screen
keyboard for entering the ID number (up to 13
alphanumeric characters).
3 Select the Get HIS button (D) in the
Demographics page (see page 65). The Get
HIS button appears greyed out and is not
selectable when the HIS is not available or
when the Cockpit is not connected to it
Discharging a Patient
You can discharge a patient from the Cockpit or
from the M540. Discharging a patient from either
device causes a discharge at the other device.
Refer to the "Infinity Acute Care System - Infinity
M540 Instructions for Use" for detailed information
on how to discharge a patient from the M540.
Discharging a patient has the following effect on the
Cockpit:
– All patient demographic data is removed from
the screen
– All trend and event data is deleted
– Any active recordings are cancelled
– The profile with defined patient settings is
restored
– The message Discharged, touch screen to
initiate monitoring appears
