About flowsheets

Use a flowsheet to schedule and record treatment that you give to a patient and monitor a patient's vitals. A patient must have a flowsheet for each day that they stay at your clinic.

Figure 1. Example of a flowsheet
Example of a flowsheet
After you add a treatment to a flowsheet, the flowsheet shows:
  • The name of the treatment
  • The scheduled treatment tasks of the patient
Note: After you add a treatment to a flowsheet, you cannot change the name of the treatment. For example, if you added the incorrect treatment, you cannot change the name of the treatment. You must:
  1. Stop the incorrect treatment
  2. Add the correct treatment
Note: Flowsheets do not show a patient's preoperative and intraoperative medication. If necessary, you can add parameters for the medication to a flowsheet manually and add the applicable information in a note.

In a flowsheet, you can also add notes and other tasks applicable to the patient's treatment.
