Workflows

Following the patient, not the form

Pulsonics is organised around what happens to a patient during a stay. Standardised workflows mean the record looks the same whoever filled it in.

Step one

Admission

A new arrival or a returning patient. The first ten minutes decide how useful the rest of the record will be.

  • Create a new patient, or find an existing one by name or number
  • Unknown patient support for someone who arrives without documents
  • Record admission diagnoses, symptoms and anamnesis
  • Set the risk flags that apply
  • Capture the medication the patient arrived on
  • Record infections and allergies, importing from a previous encounter where one exists
  • Assign the patient to a department, ward, room and bed

Step two

The ward round and the shift

The bulk of the stay. This is where a mobile EMR either earns its place or gets abandoned.

  • Open the review screen and see the current picture in one scroll
  • Collect vitals and clinical observations at the bedside
  • Place clinical and medication orders on the spot
  • Add a clinical note, a photo or a document without leaving the patient
  • Message a colleague from inside the patient's context
  • Reorder the review screen so your specialty's priorities sit at the top

Step three

Transfer

Moving a patient between departments is where records usually lose their thread. Pulsonics treats it as an event with its own handover.

  • Plan a transfer to another department or ward
  • Choose a specific time, or transfer now
  • Write transfer notes for the receiving team
  • Post-transfer recommendations — what the receiving team should do next
  • Plan the medication regime for after the transfer, explicitly

Step four

Discharge

The document everyone downstream depends on — the next clinician, the referring doctor, and the patient themselves.

  • Regular discharge, self-discharge by the patient, or transfer out
  • Record the reason, with a short description where it helps
  • Write discharge notes
  • Set the discharge medication, starting from what the patient came in on
  • Recommend further examinations and diagnostics
  • Produce the discharge summary as a document you can hand over
