Entering Patient Information
The first step in conducting any ECG test (resting, pediatric, 15-lead, vector loops, or
exercise) is to identify the patient. Patients can be identified by manually entering the
data, by bar code scanner or magnetic card reader, or by retrieving it from a MUSE CV
system. This chapter describes the available methods for entering patient information
and order information into the system:
• Manually entering patient information
• Reading a patient ID card
• Scanning a patient bar code
• Receiving orders from a MUSE CV system
• Manually entering orders
Some methods may not be available on all systems, depending on which options
have been purchased.
CAUTION:
INACCURATE PATIENT DATA — Patient data may be retained from a previous
patient. Check the patient info screen for each new patient. Data assigned to
the wrong patient causes erroneous patient data that can affect diagnosis and
treatment of the patient(s).
Make sure that you enter patient data for the correct patient.
NOTE:
The patient information you are required to enter depends on your system
configuration. Refer to
“Patient Questions” on page 113 for a description of the
patient information you are requested to enter.
