Patient lists
When starting a Patient Test, there will be the option of either selecting a Patient ID from a
patient list or entering the Patient ID using the onscreen keypad. The Patient ID, if entered on the
DMS, comes with an additional identification entry. Up to 20 characters can be used and
assigned as a second confirmation (e.g., name, date of birth).
There are four possible configurations for a Patient ID input:
■ The Patient ID is set to Optional or Required, and there is no list available:
A Patient ID can be entered manually via the onscreen keypad. The Patient ID is stored
with the test result.
■ The Patient ID is set to No, but there is a list available:
The list of Patient IDs is always shown when starting a test. You may now
– select a patient from the list;
– create a new patient entry by touching New. Instead of an ID a consecutive number will
be assigned to this result.
■ The Patient ID is set to Optional or Required, and there is a list available:
The list of Patient IDs is always shown when starting a measurement. You may now
– select a patient from the list;
– create a new patient entry by touching New. You may enter a new ID via the onscreen
keypad.
■ The Patient ID is set to “hidden” (only possible with a data management system), and
there is a list available:
A blank list is shown when starting a measurement. You may now create a new patient
entry by touching New and entering a new ID via the onscreen keypad.
When working with Patient lists, you have the following options:
■ A Patient ID does not have to be on the list to be used.
■ The meter displays a warning that the Patient ID entered is not on the list.
■ The meter displays an error message that the ID was not found on the list of valid Patient
IDs. You must enter a valid ID to proceed.
