Printing a Report
Four standard reports are available in the Vitals application:
Cumulative Vitals Report Available for single
patient, entire ward, or selected rooms on a ward
Latest Vitals by Location Available for an entire
ward
Latest Vitals Display for a Patient Available
for single patient only
Vitals Entered in Error for a Patient Available
for single patient only
These reports cannot be viewed on-screen: they must be
printed. They require a device that can handle 80 or more columns.
To print a report:
- From the Reports menu in the main Vitals window, select
a report. The Report Options window opens, showing the name of the
selected report.
- In the Include Patient(s) section, select a specific patient,
an entire ward, or specific rooms/beds on a ward. (The currently active
patient is selected by default.)
- In the Date Range section, select a Start Date and an End
Date for the selected report (if appropriate). Click the drop-down
arrow next to the Start Date and End Date fields to view a calendar.
Note: Start and End dates do not apply to the Latest Vitals
by Location report or the Latest Vitals Display for a Patient report.
- In the Device section, enter a partial device name, then
select the appropriate device from the list.
- In the Queue To Run At section, select a date and time to
print this report (default is today). For obvious reasons, reports
cannot be printed for a past date/time.
- Click Print to send the report to the selected device.
