2.4 Find a patient
When a patient has already visited the hospital or your practice, he or she will probably
already have a Patient card. To check this, you need to search for that patient in the
computer system. You search for a patient in the Search area. This is the left-hand side of
the Welch Allyn CardioPerfect Workstation workspace.
To find a patient:
1. In the Search area, click on the Patient tab.
2. In the Search field, type the patient name, the patient number or part of the patient
name.
3. Click on the Go button. The patient list automatically displays the patients that match
your search.
4. Click on a patient name to select that patient. The test list automatically displays the
tests that have been recorded for that patient.
2.5 Edit a patient card
Sometimes, patient information changes, for example when the patients address has
changed. When this is the case, you need to change the information in the patient card too.
This way, the computer system will always have the most up to date information available.
To change information in the patient card:
1. In the patient list, click on the patient that you want to change.
2. In the Edit menu, select Patient card… or press [ALT]+[P]. The patient card of the
selected patient is displayed.
3. Edit the patient information.
4. Click on OK to save the changes.
