Ease of Configuration - Flowsheets are built in Hyperspace and are fairly intuitive to build and edit.
Discrete Documentation - Flowsheets are composed of rows. Each row tracks an individual, discrete
piece of information. Each row allows a specific type of data entry, such as free text, numeric,
selection list, or date/time.
Visit-level Data - Information filed in flowsheets is specific to the visit. You can configure a
flowsheet to allow either multiple readings during a single visit or only one reading per visit.
Embed in a navigator section - You can embed commonly used flowsheet forms (templates) into
navigators. Doing so prevents your users from needing to leave the navigator to go to the
flowsheets activity.
Data is reviewable elsewhere - Data entered in flowsheets can be retrieved and reviewed in many
other tools, such as review flowsheets, print groups, SmartLinks, Reporting Workbench, Clarity, and
BestPractice Advisories.
View trending across visits - You can configure review flowsheets to display data form the same
flowsheets across multiple (even unrelated) visits. If a visit is part of an episode, you can review
values from other visits in the episode alongside the data from the current visit. This helps
clinicians observe trends and spot potential problems without having to hunt for data.
Shared Documentation - If a specific flowsheet row is used by more than one type of provider ( for
example, a physical therapist and a physical medicine & rehab physician), data from all those
providers is displayed side-by-side when reviewing that data.
Cascading flowsheet - Flowsheets can be set up to start with a small number of data entry rows and
expand based on values entered. For example, entering Yes in a row could cause other rows to
cascade in.
, Template - Seen as a "tab" in the flowsheet activity.
Row - Data is documented here.
Group - Used to organize individual documentation rows.
Detail Report - Provides clinicians extra details about the row they are documenting in, like
minimum and maximum values, and who documented on the row last.
Flowsheet Groups - Record that organizes flowsheet rows
Flowsheet Rows - Record where data is recorded. Designed to hold specific data.
Flowsheet Template - Record that organizes flowsheet groups. Used to group similar categories of
documentation together. Appears as a tab in the flowsheet activity.
Table of Contents - Topics are listed here within flowsheet templates to make it easier for clinicians
to navigate flowsheet groups. When clinicians are documenting flowsheet information in the
Flowsheets activity, they can click on a topic within this section to expand the groups within it and
jump directly to the first group in the topic.
Row Types - Defines the purpose for a record. Ex: Flowsheet Group, Properties, Data, etc.
Value Types - Defines the information you are entering in a row. Changes based on what selection is
made for row types.
Group Form - Located in a flowsheet group record where you can specify all the rows that should
normally show up in the group by default.
