Summary and detailed views of vital signs
Overview
Clicking on a subject's record takes you to the "Overview" sub-tab where the requested vital signs of a patient are all visible, one after the other. A brief summary of their variations and alerts are also visible.
To see the evolution and details of a particular one, just click on its title. To see the details of all the signs, click on the second sub-tab: "History".
History
Here you will find the detailed version of the information available in the Overview. Again sorted by device, each section shows in detail, on graphs, the latest data collected and the trends that are emerging. The history can be displayed at different levels of detail depending on your choices, such as for a specific day or time, or for a specific period of time, such as an hour, a day or a week.
N.B.
The dotted lines represent the normal values' upper and lower limits for the sign in question.
Alerts
Unlike the notification bell at the top of the screen (which consolidates all the latest alerts that are relevant to you throughout your organization), this alert tab displays those specific to this topic, sorted by date of occurrence and by vital sign.
Read the Alerts and notifications article for more detailed examples and explanations.
Customize the order of displayed devices and vital signs
The order in which devices are displayed on a subject's profile can be changed by clicking on :
The device menu (three dots)
Move up or down
The same applies to the vital signs monitored by a same device. They can be put in the desired order by clicking:
The device menu (three dots)
Device parameters
The sign(s), which can be dragged up or down
