Getting started
Selecting the patient category
If the
Patient profile selection
function is activated
(see page 473), you can change the patient
category and select a profile from a list of pre-
configured profiles from the
Start
page. If the
function is deactivated, you can only change the
patient category from the
Demographics
page.
After changing the patient category, the new patient
category label and symbol appear in the left most
field of the header bar (see page 75).
A patient category change does not affect the
following settings: the patient and physician names,
patient ID, birth date, admit date, and height. The
weight is affected by a change in patient category
as follows:
– Changing from adult to pediatric patient catego-
ry and vice versa does
not
affect the weight.
– Changing from adult or pediatric patient catego-
ry to neonatal patient category causes the
weight to appear blank.
– Changing from neonatal patient category to
adult or pediatric causes the weight to appear
blank.
