Patient Data: Time Focus
Time Focus
The CIC Pro has a feature called time focus. When you are viewing one of
the four types of patient data (alarm histories, vital signs, graphic
trends, or full disclosure), time focus allows you to view the other three
types of patient data that were recorded at that same time.
For example, if you are viewing an arrhythmia event in the Alarm
Histories tab that occurred at 1:00 pm, clicking on the Vital Signs tab
would move that tab sheet to the front, with data corresponding to the
time focus (1:00 pm) highlighted. Likewise, if you click on any of the
other patient data tabs, that tab sheet will move to the front, with data
corresponding to the time focus (1:00 pm) at the cursor location.
Since graphic trends are only visible for the period of time specified in
the Graphic Trends tab (refer to the Graphic Trends section in this
chapter for more details), it is possible to view vital signs data, full
disclosure data, or an alarm history event for which the corresponding
graphic trend is no longer stored in the CIC Pro. In this case, clicking on
the Graphic Trends tab takes you to the most recent graphic trend, not
the trend that corresponds to the alarm history, vital signs, or full
disclosure you were viewing.
Alarm histories are episodic events. Therefore, clicking on the Alarm
Histories tab in a time focus situation displays the alarm history event
that occurred closest to the time focus.
