WARNING
DISCHARGE TO CLEAR PATIENT DATA—When admitting a
new patient, you must clear all previous patient data from the
system. To accomplish this, disconnect patient cables, then do
a discharge.
When it is no longer necessary to monitor a patient, a discharge procedure
must be done to clear the system of all patient data collected. Monitor
defaults are always recalled when a discharge is done. The last unit name
and bed number used are retained. Patient name is cleared.
To discharge a patient, select MORE MENUS. Depending on how your
monitor is set up, you will see one of two menu options—DISCHARG
PATIENT or NEW CASE.
This menu option indicates that the patient is admitted. You select it to
discharge the patient.
To discharge a patient from the Standard and Rover admit menu follow
this procedure:
1. Select MORE MENUS.
2. Select ADMIT MENU to display the Admit Menu.
3. Select DISCHARG PATIENT option from the Admit Menu. A popup
