Add ETCO2 field to Vitals Application

There is currently nowhere in the vitals application to document ETCO2 (capnography monitoring) values. I am requesting that a field be added to enter ETCO2 mmHg levels within the Vitals application.

    The Trubridge 21.08 release adds the ability to enter an End-Tidal Carbon Dioxide (EtCO2) value when documenting vital signs for a patient. An "Et02" field has been added to the Vital Signs, Vent Entry, and PCA Assessment screens for this purpose. When an Et02 value is entered, it populates in all other applicable areas of the system (e.g., Vital Signs, Patient Summary, Console), and it appears in all applicable vital sign reports (e.g., MAR > Medication Report, Patient Progress Notes, Initial Physical Assessment, Graphic I&O, Critical Care Flow Sheet, Notes > Vital Signs). The O2 combo box grid on eForms has also been updated to include the EtCO2 value, along with the other O2 values (O2 Sat, O2 Method, Os L/M, and FiO2). The system will also receive EtCO2 values from existing interfaces that transmit vital sign data.

    Hello Christi & Janna,

    This idea was changed to In Development - I'll ask the Product Owner if there is an estimated time for completion.

    Yes this is basic vital signs documentation that your system that serves medical communities is incapable of doing. pretty embarrassing if you ask me.

Add CO2 Monitoring to Vitals

Merged
CO2 monitoring is standard of care for sedation, but is not present as a choice in Vitals in EDIS or MedSurg.
