patients in alphabetical order.
Î Click [Search] to quickly find the patient you require from the list.
Î Enter the patient’s name or the first letter of the name in the "Last name" field.
Î Optionally you can search for the patient by entering his or her ID number, assuming
that patient was assigned one when first entered.

window. This also brings up a list of any previous examinations for that patient in
the examination window (bottom right-hand side).
