15 Custom Scores
WARNING: Custom scores are provided for information purposes only. They should not
be relied upon to inform patient care.
Where your local operating institution has enabled this, Current Health allows a Custom
Score to be set for a particular patient. A Custom Score is a single aggregate integer number,
which is calculated based on the level of one or more vital signs.
Custom Scores are calculated via Custom Scoring Profiles. These are set by your local
operating institution. They cannot be set or changed by the user. If you would like to enable
Custom Scores or add a Custom Scoring Profile, please speak to your local operating
institution.
A Custom Scoring Profile generates a custom score by applying an integer score to one or
more vital signs based on the level of that vital sign. Individual vital sign scores are then
summed to generate the final Custom Score.
Note, that alarms are not and cannot be based on custom scores or changes in custom
scores.
Custom Scoring Profiles, where enabled, are set during the Admission process to Current
Health (described in section 5). During the Admission process, there is the option to select
which Custom Scoring Profile should be enabled for a patient, as in the screen below:
Once a Custom Scoring Profile has been selected during the Admission process, it will then
appear on the Patients App for that patient. It will be shown both on the Dashboard and on
the Patient Live Vitals screen. The name of the Custom Scoring Profile used to calculate the
Custom Score. The individual custom scores of each vital sign are also displayed on the
Patient Live Vitals Screen.
