Creating a New Health Record Type using List Management

Management . The newly created health record type then is available in My Data , where you can enter individual
values for a person.
Follow these steps:
1. Click Settings on the Main Menu window to open the Settings menu window.
2. Click List Management from the Settings menu window to open the List Management dialog box.
3. Click Health Record Types in the left navigation panel to open the List Management—Health Record
Types dialog box.
4. Click Create New to open the Health Records— Start dialog box.
5. Enter the information to create a new health record type. Information that can be associated with a new
health record type varies, depending on whether you create the health record type as a quantitative or a
qualitative measurement. A health record has either quantitative data or qualitative data. A quantitative
health record type allows you to enter a measured value. For example you could enter 66 beats per minute
for the quantitative health record type pulse. A qualitative health record type allows you to choose from a list
of descriptive text. For example you could choose blue, green, hazel, or brown for the qualitative health
record type eye color. Each health record type must have a unique name and is automatically marked as
active. A user - created health record type automatically has an (!) symbol added to the beginning of the
health record type name. An active health record type allows you to enter values for that health record type
for people under Logbook and Records in My Data .
6. Click OK to save the new health record type.
