Patient Discharge
You can discharge a patient only at the bedside, not at the central
station. Upon discharge, the monitor deletes all previously stored
monitoring data (such as QRS reference complexes, trends,
events, and recordings), and it returns to default or previously
stored monitoring settings (see the chapter Default Settings and
Biomedical Support).
STEPS: Discharging a Patient
1. Press the Menu fixed key.
2. Click on
Admit/Discharge.
3. Click on
Discharge.
4. Click on
Discharge Patient? YES.
When you discharge a patient at the bedside, the central station
deletes the bedside’s data from the bed view and displays a Dis-
charge banner for this bed.
NOTE: You can also discharge a patient from the New Patient?
prompt upon leaving the Standby mode. In this case, however, the
patient’s name remains displayed at the central station until you
admit a new patient.
