Whether you are adding a new flowsheet or viewing an existing flowsheet for a patient, you can add data elements to track.
Any new data elements added to a patient's flowsheet apply only to that patient's flowsheet, and are not reflected in other flowsheet templates of the same type. For example, if you are viewing the diabetes flowsheet for a specific patient and add a data element, that element will not appear in the diabetes flowsheet for other patients.
Steps
1. From a patient's chart, click the flowsheet icon.
2. If you are building a new flowsheet, click Add Flowsheet and then Add Element.
If you are viewing an existing flowsheet for a patient, select the flowsheet from the list. Scroll down to bottom of the flowsheet and click Add Data Element.
3. In the Element Setting window, in the Display Name field, type the name you would like to appear in the flowsheet.
4. From the Resource Type list, select the type of data to add to the flowsheet:
