What is changing and why
The current order entry layout for titratable drips has specific titration parameters required depending on the medication. We have received feedback that the current required parameters are not appropriate for all situations. In order to accommodate this request, we have designed a new form that allows the primary and additional titration goals to be customized in order to meet the needs of individual patients.
Current form:
Redesigned form:
The same options that are on the current form will still be available in a drop-down menu. In addition, a free text ‘Other Titration Goals’ will be available.
MAR – There is a character limit on the MAR. If all of the titration goals & values are utilized as well as the ‘Other Titration Goals’ that character limit may be exceeded.
To see all the information from the MAR, Orders Menu, or INet right click the order > Order Info or View Order Info > History
