4.4 Selection of parameter list

Figure 4-4 Setting to prioritise selection of 7 parameters
On many screens, only 7 parameters are displayed for selection. All further parameters can only be seen by
pressing Other. This screen allows the user to define the order in which the parameters are shown.
The column Prio allows the user to change the display order of the parameters. 1-7 defines the position on
the first page, all others are on the page others. Use the keyboard to type in the numbers into the selected
field.
A single digit indicates the priority/position of a single parameter test.
If a parameter is part of a combined test, two digits will be displayed. The first digit stands for the position of
the parameter as a single test, while the second indicates the position of the combined test. For example, if
the column Prio displays 1.7 for parameter cTnI, the single cTnI test will be shown in position 1, while the
combined test cTnI, Myo and CK-MB will appear in position 7 (the parameters Myo and CK-MB will also have
a 7 as second digit).
For each parameter, low and high cut-off values can be defined. In-between these two values, the result is
considered to be normal and shown in black. If the result is higher, a red arrow is shown next to the result on
the measurement screens.
<low is the range where a patient shows abnormally low values. In this case, a red arrow down appears.
<norm indicates the range of a parameter where a patient is healthy, or normal.
<high is the range where a patient shows abnormally high values. In this case, a red arrow up appears.
The rest of the parameter list can be reached by pressing Page up/Page down.
Pressing Add opens up the following screen and allows the user to create customised reference ranges for
one of the uploaded parameters. In the example below, a customised parameter for PCT in neonates is
created. Neonates, for example, have different reference ranges depending on their age (in hours). Here, a
reference range for neonates who are 12 hours old is created. PCT is selected as Card name and Parameter.
The name of the new parameter is neo12h. Any name can be chosen. Then, the range for normal values is
set to be 0.5 to 8.0 ng/ml. Pressing Add on the pop-up window creates the new parameter with a customised
reference range.
The last step is to define a priority for the new parameter.
