Creating a New BTS Flowsheet

1.   If you haven't already, select the patient and go to the BTS Flowsheet module.

2.   The LMR assigns a name to the flowsheet based on your location.

3.   Click to select the primary diagnosis from the drop-down list. (You can add additional diagnoses, if appropriate, during step 5.)

4.   Click to select an MD and Nurse from drop-down lists. If appropriate, you can also select a Social Worker and Fellow/NP.

5.   If the patient has more than one diagnosis, click Add DX. Select a Diagnosis and MD for each diagnosis. Be sure that the Primary option is selected for the primary diagnosis.

6.   You can also enter general comments (such as to identify if the patient is a diabetic) by typing into the text area. Do not enter information here that belongs in other sections of the flowsheet, such as administration complications.

7.   Click Ok. The LMR displays the new visit screen. For details on completing this screen, click here.
