Admit/View a Patient: Admit Instructions
Admit Instructions
Admitting a telemetry patient is a simple, yet important procedure. After
you have prepared the patient’s skin, properly placed the electrodes,
verified lead quality and electrode status, and set up the transmitter, the
patient can be admitted.
Refer to “Patient Preparation” on page 11-4 for information on
patient skin preparation, proper electrode placement and verifying
lead quality and electrode status.
Refer to “ApexPro Transmitter Battery Installation” on page 4-3 for
information on setting up the ApexPro and ApexPro CH transmitter.
Refer to “Installing and Removing a Battery” on page D-24 for
information on setting up the ApexPro FH transceiver.
Admit Procedure
1. At the CIC Pro, choose a bed window that is blank except for an
Admit button or appropriate bed number.
If a bed window similar to the one illustrated above does not appear
on your CIC Pro, click on the Auto Display button in the main menu
at the bottom of the display. The display will rearrange to add at
least one empty bed window with an Admit button.
NOTE
If there are no additional bed windows available, the message
“Reconfiguration failed!” will appear. Do a discharge to make a
bed window available for admit. For more information on
discharging, refer to the Discharging a Patient section in this
chapter.
NOTE
A bed window that still contains some patient information and
the message “DISCHARGED” is available for admit. For
information on clearing the data and making this type of window
available for admit, refer to the Clearing a Patient Window
section in this chapter.
