Abstract:
A method for updating an electronic medical record of a patient comprises retrieving, from a medical information management system, a patient monitoring worksheet displaying medical information relating to the delivery of medical care to a first patient and presenting, on a display capable of receiving touch-responsive user input, the retrieved patient monitoring worksheet. The method further comprises determining, for each subsection of the patient monitoring worksheet, whether information tracked during that subsection is incomplete. The method further comprises permitting edit popups only for the ones of the subsections with incomplete information in a first mode of operation and permitting edit popups for any of the subsections in a second mode of operation. The method further comprises detecting touch-screen input selecting a subsection with incomplete information, presenting an edit popup for the selected subsection, determining one or more added or edited values of the edit popup, and updating the patient monitoring worksheet by causing the one or more added or edited values to be stored by the medical information management system.
