Methods to add or change patient information

SmartFlow has three methods that you can use to add or change patient information. Information that you add or change shows in patient cards and in the patient information area of the applicable patient flowsheet.

The available methods are:
  • Make changes in a whiteboard
  • Make changes in an applicable patient flowsheet
  • Make changes with the SmartFlow iPad app

Whiteboard method

If you hover over a patient card in a whiteboard, SmartFlow shows an EDIT PATIENT button. If you select EDIT PATIENT, SmartFlow shows an Edit Patient dialog that you can use to add or change patient information.

Patient flowsheet method

A patient flowsheet shows an area with information about the applicable patient (for example, the patient's age and weight). To change the information that the area shows, in the right sidebar, select EDIT PATIENT.
