Patient data
Introduction Patient Registration
0
Before you can examine a patient with your system, you must register the
patient.
Registration means that you give your system all the information about a patient
that it requires for an examination.
Depending on how registrations are organized in your hospital and how much
time you have for registration, you can choose between different patient registra-
tion procedures.
Emergency
registration
If a patient is admitted who is in an extremely critical condition and must there-
fore be examined and treated immediately, call up emergency registration.
This reduces the time before you can begin the examination to a minimum.
Registration for the
examination
However, if you want to register a patient for an examination, you first enter the
patient's data or call it up from the database and then examine the patient.
Preregistration
If you want to prepare the system to examine a patient at a later time, then you
can preregister the patient.
For example, in the morning you can enter the data of all the patients to be exam-
ined during the day. When you want to begin an examination, simply call up the
relevant data and edit them, if necessary. This saves time during the examination.
HIS/RIS query
If your system is connected to a HIS/RIS system (hospital and radiology informa-
tion system), you can query and retrieve data for the patient to be examined for
preregistration or registration.
