Figure 25-1: Physiologic calculations table
The top line of the table shows the type of calculations performed, the bed
name, and the patient name.
A day/time key is displayed at the top of each data column. Each day/time
key indicates the day, hour, and minute. The hours can be in either 12-hour
or 24-hour format, depending on the system setup. When you use the
12-hour format, A or P are displayed to indicate either a.m. or p.m.
Calculation inputs are listed on the top of the table. Output from the
calculations are listed under the dividing line at the bottom of the table. Eight
columns of data can display on the screen at once, each column appears
under the key which corresponds to the day and time at which the data was
collected. New data values are entered to the right of existing ones. If the
table is full, older entries are shifted left one column. Data columns that do
not display remain in memory. A highlighted key indicates a selected column.
