many tests transferred. The Destination HFA II-

Organizing Patient Files
Just as you organize patient tests that are on paper, it is also necessary to organize visual field tests
on storage media. Clearly label every removable storage medium in your test library.
Keep a USB storage device connected in a USB port at all times in or
der to maintain a chronological
copy of all tests. Each time you press SAVE ON DISK, the results will be stored on both the hard disk
and the USB storage device. Clearly label every USB storage device in your file library with the
starting and ending dates contained on that device. Always print a hard copy of test results for all
tests not saved. Periodically make copies of the storage media to protect the data.
Note: It is recommended that you store a copy of your HFA II-
i
database outside of the office to
protect your data from damage in the event of a fire or other major catastrophe.
Note: Be sure to read Chapter (11), "Database Management," for more information on the
importance of following good data backup procedures.
