Note
You can scan a patient's barcode from the Home tab or the Summary tab.
The scanned ID appears in the Patient frame on the Home tab and in the
Patient ID field on the Summary tab.
Before you scan a barcode on the Summary tab, touch the keyboard icon in
the Patient ID field. To return to the Home tab and begin taking patient
measurements, touch OK.
Note
If "Require patient ID match to save measurements" is enabled in Advanced
settings, a progress indicator appears onscreen as the device queries an
external host system or the device's Patient list for a matching ID.
•
An unsuccessful query results in the message, "Unable to identify patient."
•
A successful query results in patient data populating fields and appearing
onscreen according to preferences configured in Advanced settings.
Note
If "Require clinician ID match to save measurements" is enabled in
Advanced settings, a progress indicator appears onscreen as the device
queries an external host system for a matching ID.
•
An unsuccessful query results in the message, "Unable to identify clinician."
•
A successful query results in clinician data replacing the progress indicator
according to preferences configured in Advanced settings.
Note
Scanning a clinician ID while the Clinician ID pane is open places the
scanned ID into the Clinician ID section of the Device Status area. Touch
OK to return to the Home tab and to begin taking patient measurements.
Note
Use the Advanced settings Data Management tab to change the
appearance of the Clinician ID if you do not want your ID to appear in the
Device Status area. (This requires the Advanced settings access code.)
However, this information is still retained in the monitor memory for recall,
printing, or to send measurements electronically to the network.
