once registered as an emergency patient is stored in the database twice.
As soon as you save the corrected patient name, the dialog box asks you whether
you want to merge the examination data of the two patient entries or not.
Caution

Examination data may be assigned to the wrong patient!
Before confirming the message, make sure that the patient is one and the
same.
