Preface: Intended Use

Centricity Anaesthesia Application Editor is a tool for modifying applications, maintaining reference data (for example personnel, drugs) and for managing user names and passwords.

The Application server is a central computer that manages the operation of the system. The data that is entered in the workstation is physically stored in a central database. This database is located in the server.

The Device Interface provides the connection for medical devices such as monitors, ventilators, heart-lung machines, and blood gas analyzers. The Centricity Anaesthesia system is not intended to replace the patient information obtained from the patient monitoring which it is interfaced. Centricity Anaesthesia is intended to be used for documentation and reference purposes only. If the system includes this interface, the system collects vital signs and device settings automatically from the devices, and can record, view and store device data in the POC applications. The connection from the devices to the system is unidirectional. The Anaesthesia software is not intended to influence or control other devices. The Anaesthesia software does not automatically provide information or data to the interfaced devices that would in any way control or influence the devices. Data from devices are collected for care records. Data is shown with user defined sampling interval in the trending component.

The InfoWay interface provides a connection to external information systems, such as the Hospital Information System (HIS), other Clinical Information Systems (CIS), a laboratory system or a scheduling system. If your system includes the InfoWay interface, you can integrate the data from a specific external system in the POC applications.

Centricity Anaesthesia program contains various tools- such as drug and fluid calculations, trend displays, etc., these tools are not intended for the analysis of patient data - the indented use is for historical data charting purposes only.

Centricity Anaesthesia software is intended for the administrative handling of patient data only.

Introduction: Overview

Chapter 1: IntroductionThis chapter provides a general overview of application configuration with Centricity Anaesthesia Application Editor.

Overview

Before the Centricity Anaesthesia system is ready for production use, it must be configured. This way, the system will suit the customer's individual needs.

Typically, application configuration is a task for the local vendor or for the hospital’s system administrator. The tool to use for this task is Centricity Anaesthesia Application Editor (AE).With AE, you can

• Modify specific parts of the structure, content and appearance of Centricity Anaesthesia applications

• Modify displays

• Modify printed documents

• Add reference data

• Import/export reference data and Centricity Anaesthesia applications

• Manage Centricity Anaesthesia users’ access rights.

Basics of configuration

You can think of configuration as playing with building blocks. You are provided with a set of blocks, which you can modify to create a new application.

Building blocks

The building blocks you work with when configuring the application are the following:

• Application

• Display structures and patient groups

• Display frames

• Displays and display components

• Printouts and report sets

• Default value configuration

Introduction: Basics of configuration

Application

The goal of configuration work is to create a customized version of Centricity Anaesthesia point of care applications for fitting local hospital sites needs. Personnel uses point of care applications for documenting patient care in the clinical environment (e.g. IntraAnesthesia or PostAnesthesia).

More information?

“Chapter 11: Applications and display structures”, page 106.

NOTE: This manual does not provide information about the functions and use of Centricity Anaesthesia applications. For more information, see “Centricity Anaesthesia User’s Reference Manual”.

Display structures and patient groups

A display structure is a set of displays based on, for example, anesthesia type (e.g. general anesthesia or short anesthesia). Each application can contain several display structures.

Each display structure within an application have their own patient groups. Patient groups are used to group default values, it is a link between display structures and defaults. All patient groups within a display structure are all using the same menu and reports. Patient group selector component is used select the patient group (and display structure) in the Centricity Anaesthesia application.

When a patient’s care process starts, the Centricity Anaesthesia application user can select the display structure and patient group that best suits the case. Each display structure can have, for example, different link buttons and different displays that the user can work with. For example, a display structure for heart surgery includes displays that the user does not need with any other type of procedure (e.g. displays related to perfusion). Thus, a display structure and patient group varies according to the care process, and it is intended for fast documentation and smooth workflow.

Display structures are used to provide different screens for documenting the care while the patient groups are used to provide different sets of default values for the screens.

However, different display structures typically have a large number of elements in common. For example, the display structures for general and local anaesthesia case tasklists look generally the same, but they contain slight differences in details. Actually, it is important to ensure that different display structures are designed in as uniform a manner as possible.

NOTE: It is not recommended to create different menu structure (different menu buttons) for patient groups for one customer site. This is to ensure easy usage and low learning curve.

More information?

“Chapter 11: Applications and display structures”, page 106.

Display frames

Each display must belong to a display frame. Display frame is a framework that gathers all separate displays. You can use display frames to actually gather together displays which you want to appear for the user in a single screen with tabs. However, even displays that appear in separate screens in Centricity Anaesthesia application each need their own display frame.

“Chapter 4: Display frames”, page 35.

Introduction: Basics of configuration

Displays and display components

Displays are the screens the user can open in the Centricity Anaesthesia application (e.g. Anesthesia Summary). A display contains display components, that is, the tools with which the user can view, modify and save the patient data (e.g. text fields to enter data, trend displays to view the patient’s vitals and link buttons to open screens.) Each display can contain several display components.

Apart from small display components such as text fields, list boxes and link buttons, you can define more extensive display components such as trend components and Drug Selector windows.

More information?

About displays: “Chapter 3: Displays”, page 6.

About trend components: “Chapter 5: Trend components”, page page 39.

About Drug Selector windows: “Chapter 7: Drug components”, page 63.

Complete list of display components and their properties: Appendix A: “Display components” on page 131.

Guidelines for designing the display layout: “Centricity Anaesthesia User Interface Style Guide”.

Reusability of components

A feature that facilitates the configuration work with Application Editor is the reusability of building blocks. This means that once a display structure, display or display frame is created and saved in AE, it can be utilized in several locations. For example, you can define the same display as a part of various display frames, and the same display frame as a part of various display structure. This way, you do not need to create the same building blocks over and over again.

Notice that display components are generally not reusable. This means that you cannot use, for example, the same text field in different displays; instead, you need to define it separately for each one.

An exception to this rule are trend containers and drug selector windows. These complex display components can be reused.

Links between building blocks

In Application Editor, the concept of link is twofold.

The first aspect is that when you reuse a component in several displays, you create a link between the component and each displays it is used in.

Thus, reusability also means that when you modify, for example, a trend container you have reused in various displays, the changes appear in each one of these displays. This way, you do not need to make your changes into each and every display separately. However, this also means that before modifying linked components, you need to consider all displays that are affected by the modification.

Page 18: CentricityAnesthesia_ApplicationEditorReferenceManual

Introduction: Basics of configuration

The second aspect of the concept of link is the hierarchy formed by the building blocks. At the top, there is the application, and all lower-level blocks are linked to it from the bottom down as illustrated in the following picture.

You need to keep this hierarchical linking in mind especially when you want to remove building blocks. To be able to do that, you need to remove all links between the blocks first. Let’s say you defined a trend container in a display, but decide to remove it. You have also defined this trend container for a printed document. First, you need to remove the link to the display, and then the link to the printed document. After that, you can remove the trend container.

More information?

About removing links: Chapter 2: Getting started, page 20.

Modifying reference data

An important part in the Centricity Anaesthesia application is reference data. Reference data is hospital, care unit or system level data, such as diagnoses, drugs, consumables and personnel data. Some of this data is included in the system. Some can be imported through the system interface (InfoWay) tool (e.g. diagnosis codes).

More information?

Page 19: CentricityAnesthesia_ApplicationEditorReferenceManual

Introduction: Sample configuration workflow

Defining input and output

During configuration, you also define the details of medical devices (e.g. patient monitors, ventilators and IV pumps) that provide input to the system. In Application Editor, device details are one class of reference data.

You define output from the system by modifying printed documents, that is, the reports that the users print out and save as PDF files during each care process. Each printed document must be defined to a report set, the same way each display needs to be defined to a display frame.

More information?

About defining medical devices: “Chapter 8: Reference data”, page 78.

About report sets: “Chapter 10: Printed documents”, page 105.

About printed documents: “Chapter 10: Printed documents”, page 94.

How the blocks are presented

In Application Editor, the structure of a Centricity Anaesthesia application is presented as a navigation tree. The navigation tree displays all configurable parts of the system. With functions familiar from any Windows-type interface, you can view, create, modify and link the parts to create a Centricity Anaesthesia configuration that best serves the users at your hospital.

More information?

About navigation tree and user interface:“Chapter 2: Getting started”, page 6.

Sample configuration workflow

The following is a sample workflow for application configuration. In this workflow, it is assumed that you are the person responsible for the entire configuration process. Often it may be the case that some parts of the process (e.g. step 1) are provided for you by the manufacturer.

NOTE: Before you start configuring the application, analyze your application to see what changes are necessary.

1. Locate your application folder from the application navigation tree.

2. Copy a suitable display structure on which you want to base your new application.

3. Check the display structures, modify them and create new ones, if necessary.

4. Link patient groups to the display structures. Create new patient groups, if necessary.

5. Check the displays and modify them.

6. Check the display frames, modify them and create new ones, if necessary.

7. Create and check the necessary reference data.

8. Check the printed documents and make the necessary changes to them.

9. Test the changes you have made in the Centricity Anaesthesia application.

10. Define the defaults for the patient groups in default mode application.

Getting started: User interface

User interface

The AE user interface is divided into two areas: Navigation Area and Work Area.

In Navigation Area, you can view the navigation tree and use a pop-up menu to manage and select folders and documents. In Work area, you view the properties of these components in the property tree and edit them in the property table. For more information on Work Area, see page 13.

Navigation Area

Navigation Area contains following tabs.

In Applications tab, you can manage and modify applications.

In Reference Data tab, you can add and edit reference data, such as personnel and drugs details.

In Library tab, you can create and manage displays, display frames, reusable components (e.g trends), dialog windows (e.g. Drug Selector window, Add/Mix selector window) and printed documents. Basically everything you need (except reference data) for applications and display structures can be created in Library tab.

In Administration tab, you can manage user roles and import/export the configuration documents and reference data to/from briefcases.

Page 22: CentricityAnesthesia_ApplicationEditorReferenceManual

Getting started: User interface

In Defaults tab you create and modify patient groups and start the Centricity Anaesthesia applications in default mode, where you can configure default values such as default administration records for drugs and fluids.

Each tab has a different navigation tree that appears in Navigation Area when you click a tab. These navigation trees are Windows-type. You configure the system by checking, modifying and adding documents and folders. You can select and open folders and documents the same way as in any Windows user interface.

Work Area

When you select a document in Navigation Area, the system opens the document in Work Area. In Work Area, the contents of the document are displayed in two ways: in the property tree (on the left) and in the property table (on the right). Property table is the tool you normally use for editing document properties.

NOTE: Some document properties need to be edited in the property tree (instead of the property table). In these cases, you see the text ‘Click tree on left’ in the property table in the corresponding field.

NOTE: The appearance of Work Area may vary depending on the type of the document you are editing (for example, in the Personnel tab and when editing displays in the Library tab.

With the Find field, you can locate documents and folders easily. The Find field appears on the top of Navigation Area.

To find a document or a folder, type its name (or first characters of the name) in the Find field and click Next. The first folder or document with a matching name is highlighted. If you click Next again, the next matching item is highlighted.

You can use the asterisk (*) as a wildcard character in the Find field. The field is not case sensitive.

Working with folders and documents

To work with folders and documents, you can use the commands in the pop-up menu. The pop-up menu appears when you right-click the navigation tree.

With the pop-up menu functions, you can

• Create folders and documents (page 14)

• Copy documents (page 17)

• Edit folder properties (page 18)

• Edit document properties (page 18)

• Remove folders and documents (page 20)

• View document links (page 21).

With the pop-up menu, you can also copy Reference Data documents as shortcuts (see chapter “Reference data”, page 79) and import/export configurations (see chapter “Exporting and importing”, page 125).

Creating folders and documents

You can create a new folder by right-clicking the navigation tree and selecting New. A dialog opens for entering folder properties. In the dialog, enter the name, code and description for the folder.

Getting started: Working with folders and documents

You can create a new document by right-clicking a folder and selecting New. The document opens in Work Area, where you can edit it. For more information on editing documents, see page 13.

Document naming guidelines

Folder structures in Application Editor can be complex and contain multiple levels. To facilitate document management, it is recommended to name the documents in a consistent manner. With consistent naming, it is easy to locate different versions of documents and links between different documents. It also helps you to communicate with other parties.

The recommended document name includes the following parts:

First, include the document type code (f) enclosed in brackets. Next, include the title of the component (Anesthesia Record Short Ane). Then, include an application code (GLO) that describes the application owner. In the figure above, this abbreviation is GLO. You can use your country code instead. Finally, you can include your hospital code (not shown in the figure above). A hospital code can facilitate the communication with the customer.

Displays: Before you begin

Chapter 3: DisplaysThis chapter provides information on creating and modifying displays as well as working with display components.

Display frames are handled in the next chapter.

Before you begin

This manual does not include detailed instructions on how to actually design the display layout.

Before copying displays, make sure you understand the effect of the copying rules.

Before adding display components to displays, make sure you know what components are available in Application Editor and how they are used properly.

More information?

About display design guidelines: “Centricity Anaesthesia User Interface Style Guide”.

Copying rules: “Chapter 2: Getting started”, page 11.

Complete list of available display components, their properties and use: ”Display components”, page 131.

Workflow

The following list is a suggested workflow for defining displays and display frames.

1. Create a new display or copy an existing display.

2. Define display properties.

3. Add, modify and remove display components as desired.

4. Check the changes in the Designer tool.

5. Check the changes in the Centricity Anaesthesia application.

NOTE: After defining displays, you also need to define display frames for them. For more information, see “Chapter 4: Display frames”, page 22.

Overview

The recommended way to define displays is to copy an existing display and edit it by adding, modifying and removing components to it as necessary. The following section provides a brief introduction to display components.

Displays: Overview

Picking the right display component

When you decide which display components to use, you need to consider two things:

• What kind of task the Centricity Anaesthesia user needs to accomplish: for example, enter dates, select data items or open a display.

• What kind of data is being handled: for example, text, numeric or selection lists.

The following tables shows examples to illustrate this.

*Not obligatory. Variables can also be included as such.

The following tables compare the display components for a specific type of task. These include selection components and repeating value components (that is, components in which the value needs to be saved several times during the care process, such as patient position).

Displays: Overview

Defining properties related to program logic

In Application Editor, displays, display components and printouts need a job that defines

• how the display works

• where the data recorded by the user is saved to

• where the data shown to the user is retrieved from.

These jobs form a part of AE’s program logic and are included in AE. What you need to do is to select the correct job for each display, display component and printout. You do this as you define the properties in their property tables.

NOTE: When you copy a display, the correct link to the job definition is copied with it.

The property table fields you use for defining logic-related properties are Logic, Save To and Data From.

Logic, Save To and Data From properties

For all displays and display components, you need to define how they work on a general level. You do this with the Logic property. When you click the icon next to the Logic field in the property table, you can view all jobs in the appearing window. The names are descriptive to make it easier for you to pick the correct job.

For components that are used for saving data, you need to specify where the program saves that data. You do this with the Save To property.

In most cases, the Save To property also tells the program where to retrieve data from. However, for some components, you specify this by using the Data From property.

The Data From property also has another purpose. This purpose is limiting the number of options that appear in the Centricity Anaesthesia application. For example, the Centricity Anaesthesia application can include a large number of different interventions (Reference Data tab - Care Documentation folder) that are intended for different procedure types and care processes. The Centricity Anaesthesia software contains a predefined limitation, for example, that only first 5 interventions in the list are shown. You can apply this limitation by defining it in the Data From field.

Query types

Query is the predefined entity that directs the Centricity Anaesthesia software functionality. There are different types of queries for different purposes, and you need to select the correct query for the Save To or Data From property you are defining. The query type appears in the end of the query name. For example, a SUM type query is intended for defining summary tables.

Displays: Overview

How to pick the right query

The following table summarizes

• what property is related to which component

• what job or query type you need to define for which component.

For examples of linking, see the global model configurations or their documentation.

Component Property Link to Comment

DisplaysPrinted documents

Logic Job (j) Allows the queries in job to be utilized on display or printout for saving and viewing the data. A job may have rules which are run when opening the display or printout or modifying data on dis-play. Typically e.g. rules for cal-culating values like age or BMI are run when display or printout is opend in application. (JOB)

Display and printout components

Save to - SAVE query For recording and showing data without table format (normal dis-play or sub display or table details’s details). If this is not linked value is not saved to data-base.

Display and printout components

Data from - REF query Limiting reference data selection lists. Without this property, all same type documents would show e.g. all personnel names instead of only anesthesiolo-gists.

Table components for displays and printouts

Row level - TABLE query Defines the row item of a table. Typically query node named like PatientIntervention, Patien-tHealthProblem.

Table components’ columns for displays and printouts

Data from - TABLE query Table columns are linked to same query as defined for row level property.

Display and printout components

Data from - VIEW query For only showing data usually in fields (e.g. printout data). Not for recording data.

Display and printout components

Data from - SUM TABLE query

For row level and columns but only for display selection table and printout summary table.

Displays: Working with displays

Work Area contains two tabs for editing displays. In the Display Editor tab, you can define display properties and components. In the Designer tab, you can view the effect of the changes you make. For more information on Designer, see page 30.

Copying displays

You can copy a display by right-clicking it in the navigation tree, Displays folder. All display components contained in the display (except trend containers) are automatically copied with the display. The copy appears in the bottom of the Displays list, named ‘Copy of [Display name]’. Move the display to the appropriate folder and rename it. Copied display still has links to job and it's components have links to queries.

NOTE: When renaming copied displays, make sure you name them according to the recommended naming guidelines.

More information?

About document naming guidelines: Chapter 2: Getting started, page 15.

About defining logic-related properties: page 25 in this chapter.

Defining display properties

When you have a display open in Work Area, you need to define its properties in the property table on the right side of the Work Area. Some of the fields are text fields, some contain dropdown lists with alternatives. Specify the following information for the display.

Name

Enter the name of the display. This name is not shown in the Centricity Anaesthesia application.

Label

Enter the title of the display. This title is shown in the Centricity Anaesthesia application.

Mode

Select the type of the display (Normal or Header). The default is Normal. Header refers to the narrow part on top of a Centricity Anaesthesia window. Typically, the header contains selected patient’s data. AE treats header as a display. Thus, you need to define the header as if it were a separate display. When you select the header display for display structure, you can select only from displays that are configured to be in Header mode.

Number of rows

Define the size of the display as Designer grid rows. The recommended minimum number is 14. For more design guidelines, see “Centricity Anaesthesia User Interface Style Guide”.

Number of columns

Define the size of the display as Designer grid columns. The recommended minimum number is 14. For more design guidelines, see “Centricity Anaesthesia User Interface Style Guide”.

Preview grid visible

Select True if you want the grid to be shown in the Designer window. Otherwise select False. The grid helps you to define the locations of displays components on the screen. As you work with Designer, you can take the grid on and off whenever desired, without having to save the properties every time.

Displays: Working with displays

Select the button row you want to display on the bottom of the display. The options are None / Back / Back-Save-Undo. The default is None. This can be useful e.g. in a summary display, where the Centricity Anaesthesia user cannot save anything. A typical row for displays where the user saves data is Back-Save-Undo. The system shows also a button for showing and clearing default values with the Back-Save-Undo button row.

Logic

Select a job for the display.

Description

Define a free-format text describing the display. This text does not appear in the Centricity Anaesthesia application.

Removing linked displays

Before you can remove a linked display, you must remove all links to it. These links may include:

• Display frames containing this display.

• Link buttons and hyperlinks referring to this display frame.

• Selection Tables referring to this display frame.

When you right-click a linked display in Navigation Area-Displays folder and select Remove display, the following message appears.

If you click OK, the message closes and the document is not removed. To view the links to the document, click Show Links. The following window appears.

To remove the links, you need to locate the components one by one and select Remove for each one.

Displays: Using Designer

You can open the above link list also by right-clicking the display in the navigation tree and selecting Properties.

Using Designer

You can view displays in Work Area, Designer tab. In Designer, you can view every change you make to a display without having to save your changes. In fact, it is recommended that you check the effect of every change carefully before saving the display.

Display grid

The Designer window is divided into rows and columns that form a grid. You can switch the grid on and off in the display properties table that appears in the Display Editor tab.

When you move the cursor in the Designer window, a tooltip shows you the coordinates (row and column) of the current cell.

You define a display component’s location by entering its start row and start column as grid coordinates. Correspondingly, you define its size by entering its height (=number of grid rows) and width (=number of grid columns).

If the Designer screen remains empty even though you have added components, it means that the component properties are not correct or the defined component locations are overlapping.

NOTE: Editing a display changes it in all the applications and display structures where it is used.

Design considerations

When designing displays, you need to consider the usability of the display and its consistency with the rest of the displays in the Centricity Anaesthesia application. Consistency and usability are made up of various details such as the location, size and color of display components.

This manual does not include design recommendations. For detailed design guidelines, see “Centricity Anaesthesia User Interface Style Guide”.

Adding display components

When you have a display open in Work Area, you can start adding components to it. Right-click the Components folder to get a list of all available components. When you select a component by selecting New component, its property table appears on the right side of the screen. Edit the fields in this table to define properties such as the size, layout and position of the component.

Removing display components

When you want to remove a component from the display, right-click the component and select Remove component. If you are removing a container-type component, any sub-components included in it are also removed.

Defining display component properties

The following table presents the properties common to all components. For more information about each component’s specific properties, see “Display components” on page 131.

Name

Enter a name for the component. This title is not shown in Centricity Anaesthesia application.

Label

Enter a title for the component. This title appears in Centricity Anaesthesia application.

Displays: Defining display component properties

NOTE: A label on top of a one-row component automatically increases the height. For one-row components, the label on top setting automatically increases the row height. For multiple-row components such as Text area, the total height stays the same, but the value area is decreased by the title.

Start row

Define the row from which you want the component to start in the display grid.

Start column

Define the column from which you want the component to start in the display grid.

Height

Define the number of rows you want the component to occupy in the display grid.

Width

Define the number of columns you want the component to occupy in the display grid.

Data from

If you don’t want to show all the reference documents of the Save To node, use this property to filter the list. For that purpose, you need two queries: one to save the data (linked to Save To property) and one to retrieve the data for the list (linked to Data From property.

Save to

Defines where the system saves the data entered in this display in the Centricity Anaesthesia application. Click the icon next to this field. In the appearing window, select the correct job for the display in question.

Value width

Define how you want to divide the space between the value and its unit.

Extra large: the value area takes 100% of space and no room is reserved for unit.

Small: the unit takes 75% of the space and value the rest. This property does not affect the label space.

NOTE: With some components, the component controls (e.g. spinners, numerical pad, date time field) consume the value area space. If the value does not show completely, try increasing the size of value area. For example, change the value width from Normal to Large or giving the component more width.

Display frames: Before you begin

Chapter 4: Display framesThis chapter provides information on creating display frames and adding displays into them.

Before you begin

You must have the displays created before you can add them into display frames. However, their layout and content does not need to be finalized.

More information?

About defining displays: “Chapter 3: Displays”, page 35.

Overview

In Application Editor, each display must belong to a display frame. Without a display frame, a display does not function in the Centricity Anaesthesia application.

A display frame can include one or more displays. If a display frame includes several displays, it appears in the Centricity Anaesthesia application as a single screen, with a tab indicating each display.

In each display frame, one display must be defined as the default display. The default display is the one that appears automatically when the user opens the display frame in question.

NOTE: Display frames are reusable. You can use the same display frame in various applications/display structures. If you do this, remember that any changes you make to the display frame appear in all locations where the display frame is used.

Name

Shows the name of the display. This field is read-only.

Description

Shows the description for the display. This field is read-only.

Linking display frames

When you have added the desired displays into the display frame, you need to link the display frame to the menu structure. By doing this, you determine the component with which the Centricity Anaesthesia user can open the display frame. This component can be one of the following:

• Menu button

• Menu item

• Submenu

• Link button or hyperlink

• Selection table button

• Link task (in task list)

• Display task ( in task list)More information?

Trend components: Before you begin

Chapter 5: Trend componentsThis chapter provides information on modifying trend components.

Before you begin

You need to have defined the variables you want to use in trends.

More information?

About defining variables: “Appendix B: Reference data properties” .

Workflow

The following list is a suggested workflow for defining trends.

1. Create trend frames (page 44).

2. Define trend frame properties (page 46).

3. Add variables to trend frames (page 49).

4. Define variable properties (page 49).

5. Create trend containers (page 41).

6. Define trend container properties (page 42).

7. Add trend frames to trend containers (page 45).

8. Add trend container to a display (page 51).

Overview

In the Centricity Anaesthesia application, the user can view patient data in trends. A single trend display can contain one or more frames that each show a clinically related group of variables. Variables can be, for example, recorded by medical devices (e.g. Heart Rate) or calculated by the system (e.g. Fluid Balances).

With trend containers, you can group together frames and variables that use the same timescale.

Trend container components are reusable components. Compared to other display components, the appearance of a trend container is fixed, and you do not need to design and define its layout as you need to do with other displays. What you need to do is

• Define what frames and variables you want included in the container.

• Define properties for the trend container, frames and variables.

After this, you add the trend container component to the desired display or to a printed document.

You can also add other components (e.g. tables, text fields) in a display that includes a trend container.

When you have opened a trend container in Work Area, you can define and modify its properties in the property table.

Name

Enter a name for the trend container. This name does not appear in the Centricity Anaesthesia application.

Toolbar visible

Select True if you want the trend toolbar to be visible in the Centricity Anaesthesia. Otherwise select False.

The trend toolbar contains buttons for changing some aspects of trend appearance and changing the timescale. If you select False, Centricity Anaesthesia users are not able to do this. With this configuration the trends will always use the default timescale.

Timescale

Select the timescale options. When you click the icon next to this field, the Choose Timescale window appears.

Select all timescales you want the Centricity Anaesthesia user to be able to select from. In the Centricity Anaesthesia application, the timescale is selected with button in the toolbar section.

Default timescale

Select which timescale you want to be the default. The default timescale is the one used automatically in the Centricity Anaesthesia application, if the user does not select another timescale from the options you defined in Timescale property. Trend containers in printouts are always using the default timescale.

Summary shown

Select True if you want the summary area to be visible in the Centricity Anaesthesia application. This selection applies to all trend frames. Thus, the options are to have the summary area visible in all or none trend frames.

Current time position

Select the distance of new values in relation to the left side of the frame. The options are: 0, 25, 50, 75 or 100% from the left side of the frame. The default is 100.

Trend components: Modifying linked trend component parts

Modifying linked trend component parts

Trend component parts can be used in various locations in the application, that is, they can be linked to other documents. After modifying a linked container, frame or variable, you have the opportunity to decide whether you want your changes to appear in each location where the item is used.

When you have modified a linked trend component part and click Save, the following message window appears.

To see a list of documents to which your current container, frame or variable is linked, click the Show Links button. The system shows the ‘Existing links to the selected document’ window.

To save your work and apply the changes in all linked documents, click Save Changes.

To save your work, but not apply the changes in all linked documents, click Create Copy. The system creates a new copy of the document (named ‘Copy of [original document]’) and leaves the original document unchanged.

If you decide not to save the changes you just made, click Don’t Save. The system discards your changes, and the linked documents are not modified either.

NOTE: The Save Changes in Original window described above is not used in the Reference Data tab. In all other tabs, the window appears only the first time you work with a document. If you save the document, then modify it some more and resave, the window does not appear.

Adding container to display or printed document

When you have defined all parts of the trend component, you can add the trend container to a display as any other component.

Defaults: Overview

Chapter 6: DefaultsThis chapter provides information on configuring and managing defaults, such as drugs and fluids default administration records and default interventions and insertions.

Overview

In Centricity Anaesthesia, you can define default values to speed up the user’s work. There are two types of defaults: drug and fluid default administrations and display default sets. Drug and fluid defaults can be used when recording administered drugs or fluids and the display default sets can be used when recording data in displays such as interventions.

Before you start to work with defaults you must first create patient groups and link them to display structures in applications. One patient group can be linked only once inside one application but the same patient group can be linked to several applications.

When working with defaults, you open the application (e.g. Centricity IntraAnesthesia) in a special Default Mode from the configuration tool.

When creating drug/fluid defaults, you first need to define the details of a typical administration record for the drug in question.

Then, you link the drug/fluid default to an existing patient group. You can use the same drug/fluid default for various patient groups, whenever this is clinically justified.

The last step is to link the defaults to drug/fluid trend frames. This way, you can create entire drug/fluid protocols including the most typically needed preparations for each patient group.

Similarly when creating display default sets, you first need to define the details of a typical record/intervention/line insertion in question in a display. For repeatable events such as line insertions you can define many default sets but for one-time recorded events such as anesthesia start you can define only one display default set for each patient group.

Then, you link the default set to an existing patient group. Initially the created default sets are linked only to the currently selected patient group but you can use the same default set for various patient groups, whenever this is clinically justified.

The last step is to link the default sets to table components. Defaults shown in table components are always patient group specific so you will need to configure defaults in table components separately for every patient group. Configuration of defaults in tables is similar to the configuration of defaults in drug and fluid trend frames.

Defaults: Patient groups

Patient groups

This section includes the following topics:

• Creating patient groups (page 53)

• Linking patient groups to applications (page 53)

• Removing patient group from application (page 53)

• Removing patient group from system (page 54)

Creating patient groups

Before you start working with defaults, you need to have the patient groups ready in the Defaults tab in the configuration tool.You can create new patient groups by right-clicking the Patient Groups folder and selecting New. In the window that appears in Work Area, you can define the details for the patient group.

You can use the InUse boolean property of the PatientGroup to hide the group from the user application. If the InUse property has value False, the group is not shown in the patient group selector in the normal user application where it is linked. The patient group is however accessible in the default mode client if the group is linked to the application.

The patient group selector component in the user application shows the Name property of the PatientGroup.

Linking patient groups to applications

Before you start working with defaults, you need to have some patient groups linked to the display structures of applications. Before this can be done you must first create the patient groups, see the previous chapter.

In the Navigation Area, select a display structure from an application and right-click the display structure. From the popup menu select Add patient group. The following window appears. In this window, select a patient group you want to link to the display structure of the application.

Click the OK button. The selected patient group is linked to the application. You can add one patient group only once in one application. The patient group it is linked to the selected display structure. Details of the patient group and its usage are shown in the work area. Here you can change the order in which the patient groups are shown in the user application.

Removing patient group from application

There are two ways of removing a patient group from an application: you can hide the group from the user application's patient group selector component or you can fully remove the patient group linking from the application.

To hide the patient group from the selector component you need to select the Patient group document. In the work area change the InUse property value to False and click the Save button. This will hide the patient group in all applications where it has been linked.

Defaults: Starting and stopping application in Default mode

To fully remove the linking you need to select the patient group link from the Navigation Area, under the display structure where it is used, under the application you wish to remove it from. Right-click the patient group link and select Remove from the popup menu. In the confirmation dialog click OK. This will remove the linking only from the selected application. If the group has been linked to other applications it will still be available there. Also all defaults linked to the group are still available in the other applications.

Removing patient group from system

If you want to remove the Patient group totally from the system you must first remove all defaults and links to the group.

Starting and stopping application in Default mode

When you need to configure or manage defaults, click the Defaults tab.

In the Navigation Area, select a Patient group from the application that you wish to start. Details of the Patient Group usage are shown in the Work Area. Then click the Start button and the system starts the selected application in default mode, using the selected Display Structure and selected Patient Group.

When the user application has started successfully in default mode, the home screen appears and the patient group selector component in the header display shows the selected patient group. From there you can change the patient group of the default mode so there is no need to close the user application when you want to manage defaults in another patient group.

In default mode, you can open the required user application screens and specify the defaults directly in them. Compared to the actual application, there is no patient selected and thus no actual patient data can be viewed or created in the default mode. You can create defaults to all available screens, drug selector components and drug and fluid trends in the application. You can also define defaults to patient list screens that are used to create new patients and cases.

On the top right corner of the screen, you see a default mode reminder. With this reminder, you can easily distinguish whether you are in the default mode application or in the actual application with patient data in it.

In the header display there is also the patient group selector component. This component lists all available patient groups of the application. When you want to define defaults for another patient group, select the other patient group from this component.

All rules of the application logic are disabled in the default mode (e.g. Duration calculations do not work). This is not a problem because you don't need any application logic rules when defining default values.

In the default mode the device management window is not accessible. Default devices are configured in reference data. See chapter “Example: How to add a new infusion pump”.

When you want to stop using default mode, click Exit.

Working with drug/fluid defaults

This section includes the following topics:

• Creating drug/fluid defaults (page 55)

• Modifying drug/fluid defaults (page 56)

• Linking drug/fluid defaults to trend (page 56)

• Removing drug/fluid default from trend (page 57)

• Removing drug/fluid default from system (page 58).

Creating drug/fluid defaults

When you have opened the application in default mode, you can start configuring drug/fluid defaults. Click the Drugs & Fluids button (or any other button that opens a window containing the Drug Selector component).

The Drugs and Fluids Selector window appears in default mode.

On the top of the window, you see the Patient Group selection list. You can select the desired patient group from the list. If you make no selection, the system uses the first patient group by default. You can change your patient group selection later.

Next, select the drug/fluid for which you want to configure defaults.

To view all existing drug/fluid defaults, select the All Defaults radio button. This is useful, for example, when you have defined a drug/fluid default earlier and now want to link it to a patient group.

To view the drug/fluid defaults you have configured earlier for this patient group, select the Patient group specific radio button.

Defaults: Working with drug/fluid defaults

Click New. The Give Bolus or Start Infusion window opens in default mode. Specify the data for the default drug administration. You can also specify the data in the Add&Mix window. Then click OK.

The following window appears. In this window, you define to which patient groups you want to link this drug/fluid default.

The name of the drug/fluid appears on top of the window. You can change the name as necessary to make it shorter and distinguishable from other defaults of the same drug/fluid.

In the window, all patient groups are selected by default. Remove check marks from the patient groups to which you do not want to link this default.

If you have defined, or intend to define, several defaults for the same drug/fluid, you can configure one of them as primary in this window. By defining a primary default, you can speed up the user’s work. In the user application, the primary default is selected by default as the user selects a drug/fluid.

When you are done, click OK to close the window.

NOTE: In the user application, the drug/fluid defaults you have configured can appear both in the Drugs and Fluids Selector window and in the drug trend frame. If you want to make the drug/fluid defaults available in the drug trend, you need to link them to the trend separately.

Modifying drug/fluid defaults

To modify an existing default, click Edit. The bolus or infusion window opens in default mode. Make your changes and click OK.

NOTE: When you edit an existing default, remember that the system applies the changes in all patient groups to which you have linked the default.

Linking drug/fluid defaults to trend

If you want the drug/fluid default you configured to be available in the drug trend, you need to link it to the trend display.

Defaults: Working with drug/fluid defaults

In a screen with a trend container, click the drug and fluid trend frame. The following window appears.

In this window, you can view case drugs, that is, all drugs configured in this application, trend and patient group. The field on the right side of the window shows all defaults currently shown in the trend.

By default, the top left field in the window shows the contents of the Favorites group button. Use the group buttons and the Search field to locate the correct drug. The existing defaults for the drug appear in the Defaults field.

NOTE: If the trend frame is configured to show only certain drugs or fluids from certain folder (Data from property of the trend frame), you can add defaults only for drugs or fluid from the same folder.

In the Defaults field, select the default you want to show in the trend and click Add. The default appears in the field on the right side of the window. In this field, the defaults are shown in the same order as they will in the trend. To change the order, click a default and change its location with the arrow buttons below the field.

Removing drug/fluid default from trend

To remove a default from the trend, select it from the field in the right side of the window and click Remove. Notice that the Remove button only removes the default from the trend - the default stays in the system, and you can re-link it to the trend whenever necessary.

Removing drug/fluid default from system

To delete an existing default, first open a drug selector and select a drug/fluid. Then select the default you wish to remove and click Remove. The following message appears.

Click Yes to remove the default.

NOTE: When you remove a default, it becomes unavailable for all trend frames where it may have been added and from all patient groups for which it has been linked. However, the drug or fluid in question will remain in the system.

Working display default sets

This section includes the following topics:

• Creating display default sets (page 58)

• Modifying display default sets (page 59)

• Removing display default set from system (page 60)

• Linking display default sets to table (page 60)

• Removing display default set from table (page 61)

Creating display default sets

When you have opened the application in default mode, you can start configuring the display default sets. Go to the screen for which you wish to define default values. You can use the selection menu, link buttons and table component's button just like in the normal user application.

Select Patient Group from the default mode header display for which you wish to link the display default set. If you change the patient group the same screen will be shown after the change so you don't need to navigate there again from the home screen.

Normal screens are automatically in new mode to allow creation of new default set (if there is no existing default set for the current patient group). With selection table and table-details components you need to click the New button in order to create new Default set for the details screen or details section.

Enter default values to the components in the same way as in the normal user application. Nothing is mandatory in the default mode, and you can also create a partial record. Default set can contain for example only a group selection but no item selection within the group; such as diagnose group or personnel role selection without any details of the diagnose itself or staff member.

Defaults: Working display default sets

Once you have entered the desired values to the components in the screen click the Save button.

The following window appears. The name of the display default set appears on top the window. You can change the name as necessary to make it distinguishable from other defaults. This is necessary with screens that can contain many default sets within a patient group (screens for saving repeatable events).

In this window, you define to which patient groups you want to link this display default set. Only the current patient group is selected by default. For repeatable events recorded from sub displays such as line insertions and intervention you can define many default sets, but for one-time recorded events such as anesthesia start you can define only one display default set for each patient group. If the screen is used for one-time recording, linking the same default set to other groups will overwrite the existing default set of the other patient groups. For sub displays linking the same default set to other groups will just add the default set to the other group. The existing default sets of the other patient groups are shown in the last column in the table.

When you are done, click OK to close the window.

In the user application, the default sets that you have configured in a sub display can appear in a table component that is used to access the sub display. For this you need to link the default sets separately to the table component. This linking is similar to the defaults configuration in the drug and fluid trend frame.

Modifying display default sets

To modify an existing display default set, navigate to the display in question. For normal screens the current default set of display is loaded automatically.

For sub displays that contain many defaults and which are opened from selection table component's buttons, you can select the default set from the selector component from the display action menu. The default set selector component in the action menu contains all default sets of the screen for the currently selected patient group.

Defaults: Working display default sets

For table-details components, you can use the Show button that opens a popup menu. The popup menu contains all defaults that are configured to the details section. Select the default you want to edit from the popup menu and the default is then loaded to the details section.

Make your changes and click Save button or Update button in table-details component.

When you edit an existing default set, the change affects all the patient groups to which you have linked the default.

Removing display default set from system

To delete an existing default from the system, first navigate to the display where the default can be accessed and edited. In sub display you need to select the correct default set from the selector component in the display action menu. Click Remove button from the display action menu.

Click Yes to the confirmation message to remove the default set.

To delete an existing default from the details section of a table-details component, first select the default from the table and then press Delete from keyboard.Click Yes to the confirmation message to remove the default set.

When you remove a display default set, it becomes unavailable in all patient groups for which it has been linked to. However, any reference data is not removed.

Linking display default sets to table

After you have created default sets in a sub display (such as Lines) or defaults to table-details component you need to link the defaults to the table component so it will show the defaults.

In a display with a table component, click the Manage button. The remove button is replaced with the Manage button in the default mode user application. The following window appears.

Defaults: Working display default sets

This window works similar to the window that is used to configure defaults in the drug and fluid trend frame.

In this window, you can view the table default set, that is, all defaults configured in this application, table and patient group. The field on the right side of the window shows all defaults currently shown in the table.

The field on the left side of the window shows all available default sets of the screen that is used to create rows to the table, or the default sets of the details section in case of table-details component.

Select the default set you want to show in the table and click Add. The default set appears in the field on the right side of the window. This field defines the order of the defaults in the table. To change the order, click a default and change its location with the arrow buttons below the field.

Removing display default set from table

In a display with a table component, click the Manage button. From the window that opens, select the default from the field in the right side of the window and click Remove. When you are done, click OK to close the window.

Notice that the Remove button only removes the default from the table - the default set stays in the system, and you can re-link it to the table whenever necessary. Also the default is removed only from the currently selected patient group, if the default has been added to the table for other patient groups, it will still be shown there.

Table-details component has an additional Show button in default configuration mode. After you have removed a default from the table section, the default is still shown in the Show button popup list in default mode and in the New button popup list in normal mode client application.

Defaults: Working display default sets

To remove a default set from the Show and New button popup lists of a table-details component, first select the default set from the popup list that is opened when the Show button is pressed. After the details of the selected default set is shown in the details section press the Update button in the action menu. From the opened window uncheck the checkbox for the current patient group and press the OK button. As a result the default set is not assigned to current patient group anymore and is not shown in the popup list of the Show and New buttons.

To remove a default from the Manage defaults configuration window and from the whole system, follow the steps mentioned in the Removing display default set from the system chapter.

Drug components: Before you begin

Chapter 7: Drug componentsThis chapter provides information on modifying drug components.

Before you begin

Before you can modify drug components, pharmaceutical product information must be included in the system (in Reference Data folders). Also, to define a Favorites toggle button, you need to have defined the desired Favorites subfolders in Reference Data, PharmaProduct folder.

More information?

About defining Pharma Groups: “Reference data properties” on page 163, and “Chapter 8: Reference data”.

Workflow

The following list presents the workflow for defining drug components.

1. Create the desired subfolders in PharmaProduct (in Reference Data tab).

2. Create new toggle button(s) or modify old one(s).

3. Define or modify toggle button properties. Create a new Drugs and Fluids Selector or modify an old one.

4. Define or modify properties for the Drugs and Fluids Selector.

5. Create a new Add/Mix Selector or modify an old one.

6. Define or modify properties for the Add/Mix Selector.

Overview

In the Centricity Anaesthesia application, the user can view and select drugs used during a patient’s care in the Drugs & Fluids Selector window and Add/Mix Selector window. These two windows are the parts of the drug component, and you can configure them in Application Editor.

Drug components: Overview

Drug-related windows in the Centricity Anaesthesia application

The following figure shows a sample Drugs & Fluids Selector as it might appear in the Centricity Anaesthesia application.

The Add/Mix Selector looks basically the same and has similar toggle buttons. Its purpose is to enable drug and fluid mixing for the Centricity Anaesthesia user.

These windows contain toggle buttons. Each toggle button lists the contents of a specific drug group (e.g. Favorites, Analgesics). The contents appear in the preparations list field right below the toggle buttons.

Configuring drug components

When configuring drug windows, the modifications you need to do are limited. There are three types of drug components:

• Drugs and Fluids Selector

• Add/Mix Selector

• Toggle button.

The modifications you can do are the following:

• Define the contents of a new toggle group and add it to the drug component.

• Modify toggle button properties, for example, change their color and text.

Since you add Drugs & Fluids Selector to a display, one display structure can include many Drugs & Fluids Selectors. For example, you can have one basic selector, like the one presented in the above figure, one focusing on fluids and bloods, and one focusing on blocks.

Drug components: Working with drug components

For each display structure, you define only one Add/Mix selector. You specify this as a display structure property. For more information, see Chapter 11: Applications and display structures, page 111.

The Centricity Anaesthesia user opens the Drugs and Fluids Selector window by clicking a link button. Define a link button for each Drugs and Fluids Selector. For more information, see “Display components”, page 144.

Each toggle button must be linked to a PharmaProduct folder (e.g. Favorites). The Favorites group is a hospital-specific group for which you can configure the most frequently needed drugs for easy access.

For the preparations list, you need to define the Logic field, that is, specify where the system takes the data from. For more information, see Chapter 3: Displays, page 25.

Working with drug components

You can work with drug components in the Library tab. All existing drug components are listed in the User Interface Library - Components folder.

Creating or copying drug components

When working with drug components, you can either create a new one or copy an existing one, rename it and modify it as desired.

To work with an existing component, locate it in the Library tab. The available Drugs & Fluids Selector windows are in User Interface Library - Components - Dialog windows - Drugs and Fluids windows - Drug Selector Window folder. When you double-click an existing window, it opens in Work Area as shown in the following figure.

Reference data: Before you begin

Chapter 8: Reference dataThis chapter provides information on creating and editing hospital-specific reference data, including items related to device connections.

Before you begin

Some reference data, such as coding systems, can be imported through an interface that uses Infoway. You need to import such data before you can configure it with Application Editor.

More information?

About using the Infoway interface for importing reference data: "Infoway manual"

Workflow

The following two sections present the functions you can use when configuring reference data and device connections.

Configuring reference data

When configuring reference data, the following functions are available:

“Creating reference documents” on page 76

“Editing existing reference documents” on page 79

“Editing existing reference documents” on page 79

“Creating new subfolder” on page 74

“Removing reference documents or folders” on page 77.

NOTE: When you have used the reference data to record some patient/case data, reference data cannot be removed anymore. If you have created test patients, you can remove all patients and cases data and then remove the reference data document.

Configuring device interfaces

To enable the data collection in the Centricity Anaesthesia application, you need to configure medical devices in AE.

Device-related items constitute a specific group among the AE reference data.

More information?

About defining device interfaces: Appendix B, “Device interfaces” on page 178.

Reference data: Overview

Overview

In Centricity Anaesthesia, reference data means hospital, care unit or system level data, such as diagnoses, drugs, consumables and personnel data. You can modify this data to suit hospital and unit specific needs.

One specific category of reference data in Application Editor are items related to device interfaces. Some definitions related to the medical devices providing data to Centricity Anaesthesia can be imported through the reference data interface, some you need to define yourself.

More information?

Step-by-step instructions: “Configuring device interfaces” on page 71.

Advanced technical information: "Centricity Anaesthesia Technical Reference Manual".

About using the system interface (Infoway) for importing reference data: "Centricity Anaesthesia System Interface Reference Manual".

Reference data sources

Reference data can be included in Centricity Anaesthesia from various sources. The basic set is provided by the manufacturer. Diagnose codes are usually imported through Infoway. Some data, such as the hospital personnel and hospital-specific drugs, you enter and save yourself.

Typical changes to reference data

You can modify the reference data to suit hospital-specific needs. Typical changes might include

• Adding new personnel data

• Modifying the content of drug groups shown in the Drug Selector window

• Modifying primary dosing units of drugs

• Modifying cannula sizes

• Changing units in lab results.

Reference data: Working with reference data

Working with reference data

When you want to configure reference data, click the Reference Data tab. The navigation tree appears on the left side of the screen, showing you the current folder structure.

You can use the Find field to locate the folder and document you want to work with.

When you create a new folder/document or open an existing one in Navigation Area, its property tree and property table appear in the editor area. The property tree shows the structure of the folder/document. You can edit the folder/document properties in the property table shown on the right side of the screen.

Linked and nonlinked folders and variables

The navigation tree in the Reference Data tab contains nonlinked and linked folders. A non-linked folder is a folder with the regular icon. It only serves as a tool for grouping subfolders into meaningful categories. Typically, you do not need to do anything to non-linked folders. They can contain only subfolders, not reference documents.

Page 83: CentricityAnesthesia_ApplicationEditorReferenceManual

Reference data: Working with reference data

In the figure below, the Personnel folder is non-linked and Job role folder is linked.

Linked folders are the ones that contain reference documents, and you can create new documents in them.

The navigation tree also includes a Variables folder. This folder contains documents for data that the software handles as variables. Variables include most observations related to patient status as well as measurements.

NOTE: Do not regroup variables, that is, do not create new subfolders in the Variables folder. Also, do not move them to another folder. Variable folders are vital to the way data appears in summary tables and printouts. However, you may change fields in Variable documents.

Creating new subfolder

When you want to change the way reference data is grouped, you need to create a new subfolder.

For example, you might want to create a new personnel class, such as Anesthesiologists. In this folder, you then create and edit a separate reference document for each anesthesiologist in your hospital. You might also want to define a new toggle button (e.g. Favorites) that shows a list of drugs in the Drug Selector window.

Also other folders containing same type of documents (with the same template) are affected; those folders will show their content in the same way as you define here. For the sorting and finding functions to work, you always must define Name as the first part of the presenting name. The second option you can select freely. An exception to this rule is the Staff Member folder. There you always need to select Abbreviation first.

5. When you have defined folder properties, click OK.

Creating reference documents

You can create a new reference document (for example, a new user) by right-clicking a folder and selecting New. The document opens in Work Area. On the left of the Work Area, there is the property table. On the right, you can edit the properties (=fields) of the document.

NOTE: The use of duplicate names is not allowed. If you inadvertently specify the same name for two separate items, the system shows an error message.

Field types

There are two different field types in a document: entry fields and selection fields, as shown in the following figure.

Entry fields (e.g. Full name or Person ID in the figure above) are fields where you can enter text or numbers directly. An empty text field contains the text <None>. To enter text, click the field.

Selection list fields (e.g. Account locked in the figure above) contain lists of options from which you can select the correct one. When you click the field, the arrow button appears. To view the available options and select the appropriate one, click the arrow.

Defining reference document properties

When you have created a reference document, you need to define its properties.

More information?

Complete list of reference data properties: Appendix B, “Reference data properties” on page 163.

Editing existing reference documents

When you want to edit an existing reference document, open it in the Reference tab navigation tree. Edit the values in the property table on the right side of the editor screen.

NOTE: A single reference document can be used in several folders as a shortcut. When you edit a reference document, the changes will have an effect everywhere the document is used as a shortcut or linked to (e.g. displays, reports and display structures). Consider the links carefully before you edit a reference document. If you don’t want to change the original document, you can copy it and edit the copy.

Creating shortcuts

The shortcut function is currently available only in the Reference tab.

When you need to show the same reference document in several folders, you can use a shortcut. For example, you can display the same drug in several folders by creating a shortcut of the drug document and pasting it to all folders where you want it to appear.

NOTE: Shortcut is not a copy of the original document. While a copy is a totally new document, shortcut is a direct link to the original document. This means that if the original document is modified, also the shortcut changes.

To create a shortcut, select the Reference tab, right-click a document and select Copy as shortcut. Then right-click the folder where you want the shortcut to appear and select Paste. The shortcut appears in the navigation tree in blue underlined text.

Notice that you can only paste a shortcut in a folder that

• is linked to the same template as the original folder

• is other than the original folder.

If you try to paste a shortcut in an incorrect folder, an error message appears.

Task list configuration: Overview

Chapter 9: Task list configurationThis chapter provides information on creating and changing task lists for Centricity Anaesthesia.

Overview

In Centricity Anaesthesia, a task list defines the workflow used for a patient group. It shows tasks that should be done and which are already done. Task list provides an easy way to store variable and document data. Task list supports also executing rules and opening external applications and dialogs.

Working with task list

You will find all existing task lists in the folder Task lists, which is located in the navigation tree of the Library tab in folder Components (located in User Interface Library folder). Here you can select an existing task list to change or remove it and you can also create and add a new one.

Creating new task list

To create a new task list select the folder Task lists in the navigation tree of the Library tab, open the context menu by a click on the right mouse button and select New Task List.

A new task list node will be added to the Task lists folder on the left side. The task tree and the property panel of the new task list will appear in the editor area on the right side. You can use the property panel to modify the name and description of the task list and you can also use the task tree to create new tasks for it.

There are several types of task, which can be created and used for the Centricity Anaesthesia:

• display task: opens a sub display with default values, where user can document corresponding data

• variable task: for recording a variable value (Boolean or Datetime type variable value) for example a time stamp.

• rule task: executes a specified rule (notice that rules can also be linked to other tasks, to be performed e.g. after recording a time stamp)

• link button task: is a normal link, which opens a display, a drug selector window, a device management window or starts an external application

Task list configuration: Creating new task list

Creating new display task

A display task is designed to be used with sub displays only. Sub display is a display which you open with New or Edit button of a selection table. Display task behaves like a row in a table, showing the data also in the task. Select the root node in task tree of the task list, open the context menu by a right mouse click and select New Display task. A dialog with available displays will open. Select one display from the dialog and click OK.

NOTE: Only displays, which have the Task list summary property configured will appear in the selection dialog. Task list summary is equivalent to selection table row configuration.

A new task node will be added to the task tree and a property panel with initial property values of the new display task will open. The property panel contains following properties:

Header, Display name (read only), Order number, Defaults, Target bookmark, Datetime format, Datetime sample (read only), Description.

Creating new variable task

Select the root node in task tree of the task list, open the context menu by a right mouse click and select New Variable task. A dialog with available variable values will open. Select one variable from the dialog and click OK.

NOTE: Only variable values, which are placed in the Available for task list subfolder of the Variable folder (located in the Reference Data tab) and have the type Boolean or Datetime will appear in the selection dialog.

A new task node will be added to the task tree and a property panel with initial property values of the new variable task will open. The property panel contains following properties:

Header, Order number, Datetime format, Datetime sample (read only), Description.

Creating new rule task

Select the root node in task tree of the task list, open the context menu by a right mouse click and select New Rule task. A dialog with available rules will open. Select one rule from the dialog and click OK.

A new task node will be added to the task tree and a property panel with initial property values of the new rule task will open. The property panel contains following properties:

Header, Order number, Description.

Creating new link button for a Display

Link button differs from Display task so that it can be used to create a link from task list to all but not to sub displays. No data is shown in the task. E.g. if you want to document several lines, you use link button to lines display. If you want to document one line with help of default values, you'll need to use Display task. Select the root node in task tree of the task list, open the context menu by a right mouse click and select Display from New Link submenu. A dialog with available displays will open. Select one display from the dialog and click OK.

A new task node will be added to the task tree and a property panel with initial property values of the new display task will open. The property panel contains following properties:

Header, Order number, Target display, Target display bookmark, Description.

Printed documents: Overview

Overview

In the Centricity Anaesthesia application, the user can print a number of reports related to a patient’s care process. The layout and content of these reports, which in Application Editor are called prints, must be defined in AE.

Each print consists of one or more printouts. A printout is a physical page in the printed report. In AE terms, a page is a set of header, body and footer limited by borders and printed on a single page.

In the Centricity Anaesthesia application, the printed documents are automatically saved as PDF files. You define the saving location and the parts of the file name in AE. The saving location is defined in the application property table. PDF file name contains also date.Date format comes from the Windows regional settings, short date format.

Printed documents: Overview

Printout components

In AE, you modify a printed document by adding printout components to it the same way as you add display components to a display. You also use a similar Designer tool to define the layout. However, unlike in a display, you can copy printout components within a single printed document.

The printout components can be divided into the following types:

• Simple components

• Data components (for showing documented data)

• Container components (for including other components)

• Image components (for including images).

All types of components can be used in the body, but not in header and footer.

The following table lists all printout components, their types and limitations of use.

Picking the right container component

When you decide which container component to use, consider the following table.

More information?

For a complete list of all available printout components and their properties, see “Printout components” on page 202.

Working with printouts

When working with printed documents, the recommended way is to copy an existing printed document and modify it as desired. This can save you a lot of work, since the majority of printout components are containers that contain other components.

Notice that you can also copy printout components within a single printed document.

You can view the printout folders and available printout components in the Library tab.

Printed documents: Using Designer

Using Designer

You can view an open printed document in Work Area, Designer tab. In Designer, you can view each change you make to a printed document after you click Save.

NOTE: After you have added a component in a printed document, you also need to define the source of the data you want to include in the report. For more information, see “Defining properties related to program logic” on page 25.

Printout grid

The Designer window is divided into rows and columns that form a grid.

You can switch the grid on and off by changing the value in the Preview Grid Visible field in the Printout Properties table as explained in the previous section. You can also define the Preview Color and whether you want to see the margin (Margin Visible).

When you move the cursor in the Designer window, a tooltip shows you the coordinates (row and column) of the current cell.

You define a printout component’s location by entering its start row and start column as grid coordinates. Correspondingly, you define its size by entering its height (=number of grid rows) and width (=number of grid columns).

For container-type components, you define an internal grid with the Number of rows and Number of columns properties.

Once you have defined a component in the Printout Editor, you can copy it to use it in the same printout.

If the Designer screen remains empty even though you have added components, it means that the component properties are not correct or the defined component locations are overlapping.

Design considerations

When designing printed documents, you need to consider the readability of the report and its consistency with the rest of the reports in the Centricity Anaesthesia application. Consistency and readability are made up of various details such as the location, size and color of display components.

This manual does not include design recommendations. For detailed design guidelines, see “Centricity Anaesthesia User Interface Style Guide”.

Adding printout components

When you have a printed document open in Work Area, you can start adding components to it. Right-click the header, footer or body document and select New Component.

The property table of the selected component appears on the right side of the screen. Edit the fields in this table to define properties such as the size, layout and position of the component.

Applications and display structures: Before you begin

Chapter 11: Applications and display structures

This chapter provides information on defining applications, display structures and report sets.

Before you begin

The applications consist of display structure(s). Before defining display structures you must define the display frames you are going to use.

You need to define a menu structure for each display structure. Before doing this, get familiar with the UI design recommendations.

More information?

About creating display frames: Chapter 3: Displays, page 106.

About design recommendations: “Centricity Anaesthesia User Interface Style Guide”.

Workflow

1. Select the application folder that contains the application you are going to work with.

2. Define application properties (page 109).

3. Define display structures for the application (page 110) or copy them from a existing application.

4. Define the menu for the display structures (page 112).

5. Define patient groups for the display structures.

6. Define report sets (Chapter 10: Printed documents, page 94).

Overview

Before you start working with an application, get familiar with it and plan the necessary modifications carefully.

For each application, you must define a home screen. The home screen is the display that opens by default when the user opens the application for the first time and which the user can always go to by clicking the Home button.

A display structure is a set of displays based on, for example, anesthesia type (e.g. general anesthesia or short anesthesia). Each application can contain several display structures. The default display structures opens automatically when the user opens the Centricity Anaesthesia application. Using the menu structure you define, the user can select the display structure that best suits the case.

Page 116: CentricityAnesthesia_ApplicationEditorReferenceManual

Applications and display structures: Overview

Patient groups are used to group default values, it is a link between display structures and defaults. One display structure can contain several patient groups. All patient groups within a display structure are all using the same menu and reports. Using the patient group selector component you can select the patient group (and display structure) that best suits the case. When defining display structures, make sure you keep them as uniform as possible to facilitate the user’s workflow. Modify the necessary details, but keep the general layout the same.

Each application folder contains at least one display structure folder. The first display structure in the application folder is the master display structure. This is the basis for other display structures. You can create new display structures by copying and renaming the master display structure.

The master display structure is created automatically when you create an application. It cannot be removed.

For each display structure, you need to define

• Header display (page 111)

• Menu structure with display frames and displays (page 112)

• Report sets (Chapter 10: Printed documents, page 106).

Menu structure

When you have defined a display structure (by creating a new one or copying an existing one) and defined its properties, you need to define the menu structure that the Centricity Anaesthesia user sees.

NOTE: The menu structure should be consistent from one application to another. Thus, plan your changes carefully.

A menu structure can have any number of levels, and it can include

• Menu buttons (page 112)

• Submenus (page 112)

• Display frames (page 113).

The top level is always a menu button. Menu buttons appear in the menu area of the Centricity Anaesthesia application (on the bottom of the screen). By clicking the menu buttons, the user can open the corresponding displays. A menu button can include submenus, and a submenu can contain other submenus or display frames.

Submenus are not obligatory. As a matter of fact, submenus are not recommended for finger-operated touch screens.

If you define only one submenu for the menu button, the display frame opens directly in the Centricity Anaesthesia application.

For each display structure, you also need to define a report set to include printed documents in.

Chapter 12: User and access right management

This chapter provides information about defining access rights and passwords for Centricity Anaesthesia users.

Before you begin

To be able to assign access rights to Centricity Anaesthesia users, you first need to define staff members in Application Editor.

More information?

About defining staff members: Appendix B: “Reference data properties” on page 163.

Overview

In AE, you create access rights by defining security profiles and assigning them to each individual user. Each profile has specific access rights. These access rights determine what Centricity Anaesthesia applications the user is allowed to use (e.g. “PACU user”, “AE user”). One user can have many user roles.

The access to Centricity Anaesthesia applications is controlled by passwords. You define each user an individual password and change it when necessary.

NOTE: You define access rights in the Administration tab (Security Profiles folder) and password in the Reference Data tab (Personnel folder, Users subfolder).

More information?

About access rights: “Adding a new security profile” on page 118.

About passwords: “Adding a new user” on page 120.

User and access right management: Managing users and security profiles

Managing users and security profiles

When you want to manage Centricity Anaesthesia users and security profiles, you need to

• Create security profiles

• Create job roles

• Create users and assign security profiles and job roles to users in the user document.

Adding a new security profile

In Application Editor, there are typically two security profiles ready: AE user and System Administrator. AE user can only work with Application Editor and has no access to patient data. System Administrator can access all applications. In addition to these profiles, you need to create the profiles needed for different user groups at the hospital.

To create a new security profile, do the following.

Click the Administration tab.

In Navigation Area, right-click the Security Profiles folder and select New. A new security profile document opens in Work Area.

In the Name field, specify a name for the security profile (e.g. “PACU user”).

Page 128: CentricityAnesthesia_ApplicationEditorReferenceManual

User and access right management: Managing users and security profiles

Click the button next to the Applications box field. In the appearing window, select the applications you want this security profile to be able to use.

Click the button next to the Units. In the appearing window, select the units you want this security profile to be able to use.

NOTE: This is only important if your system is configured to restrict access by department (see “Centricity Anaesthesia Security Manual” for more info).

Use the checkbox 'Can modify patient data' to specify if this security profile should be allowed to edit data.

Use the checkbox 'Can delete patient registrations and patient cases' to specify if this security profile should be allowed to remove complete patient, or case records.

Use the checkbox 'Can restore and open archived cases' to specify if this security profile should be allowed to restore and open cases that are stored by device data maintenance.

Use the checkbox 'Can modify archived cases' to specify if this security profile should be allowed to modify data of restored cases.

In the Description field, enter a free text description of the security profile. This text does not appear in Centricity Anaesthesia applications. When you are done, click Save.

The new security profile appears in the Security Profiles folder. You can link it to users in the User document. For more information, see “Adding a new user”.

NOTE: If user is configured to have several security profiles, then user has access to all departments configured in the assigned security profiles. User has modification rights if at least one profile grants user modification rights and the same applies to delete rights.

Removing a security profile

NOTE: Consider carefully before removing security profiles. Removing a security profile would be justified only when there are no users that have the profile assigned and you do not intend to assign the profile for any future users.

When you want to remove a security profile, right-click the security profile in the Security Profiles folder and select Remove.

Before you can remove a security profile document, you need to remove its links to users. For more information about links, see page 21.

Adding a new job role

When you want to add new job roles in AE, you need to create a document for each job role in the Job roles folder.

To add a new job role, do the following.

Then, copy the ones you want to show in the user application to the (d) Personnel Job Roles subfolder as shortcuts.

Removing a job role

When a specific job role ceases to be used in your hospital, you can remove it from RDE. To remove a job role, right-click it in the Job Roles folder and select Remove.

NOTE: Before you can remove a job role document, you need to remove any links to users. For more information about links, see page 21.

Adding a new user

Before the employees of your unit can start using the Centricity Anaesthesia system, their details must be entered in AE. You do this in the Users folder.

To create a new user, do the following.

Click the Reference Data tab and open the Personnel folder.

User and access right management: Managing users and security profiles

Removing a user

When an employee stops working at your hospital, you can remove the related user document. To remove a user, locate the user document in the Users folder. Right-click the document and select Remove.

NOTE: Even when you remove a user, the system saves the audit trail data. This means that even when a user is no longer working at the hospital, the tasks the user performed can still be traced.

Creating a user document for a temporary user

In Centricity Anaesthesia, you can create an “anonymous” user document for temporary employees at your hospital (e.g. students) who use the Centricity Anaesthesia system in their work.

To do this, create a new user document. Select the '~Other' job role. In the Full name field, enter '-'. Specify the security profile normally, according to the user’s tasks. Also, fill in the Password field.

Even though there is no name defined for the user, the user information is displayed in printouts. The ' ~Other' job role appears last in lists and printouts.

Creating a user document for an employee who does not use Centricity Anaesthesia

In Centricity Anaesthesia, it may be necessary to document users who do not actually use the system (e.g. technical staff or surgeons, depending on your hospital's practices).

In such a case, create a new user document. Fill it in normally, but do not specify a security profile for the user at all. Also, leave the Password field empty. This way, the employee’s information is available in the system and can be documented in Centricity Anaesthesia as personnel, but the employee does not have access to the Centricity Anaesthesia system.

Exporting and importing: Overview

Chapter 13: Exporting and importingThis chapter provides information for using the export/import function to transfer entire Centricity Anaesthesia configurations or their selected parts.

Overview

You can transfer the entire Centricity Anaesthesia configuration or parts of it from one Centricity Anaesthesia installation to another by using the import/export function.

With the export function, you can, for example, send your development suggestions to the manufacturer or discuss configuration issues with your local vendor. With the import function, you can, for example, receive configuration updates from the manufacturer.

NOTE: When you use the export/import function, the system transfers only the configuration-related items, not confidential patient data.

To use the export/import function, you first open the Administration tab to create a briefcase that will contain the exported/imported items. Then, you select the items for export/import from their locations (e.g. Application, Reference Data and Library tabs) and start the export/import.

Briefcase and default folder

Before you can start the actual export/import, you need to create a briefcase in the Administration tab. Briefcase is simply a specific type of sub-folder in which the exported/imported items are saved. In the navigation tree, you recognize a briefcase by its special icon shown in the following figure.

The system includes a default folder. Every time you open the Administration tab, the default folder is shown automatically in the navigation tree. The briefcases you create are automatically saved in the default folder. In the figure above, the default folder is C:\Program Files\GE Healthcare\Centricity\ Briefcases).

Page 135: CentricityAnesthesia_ApplicationEditorReferenceManual

Exporting and importing: Creating briefcase

Instead of the default folder, you can also save your briefcases in some other folder of your own choice. To do this, right-click the default folder and select Change Directory. The following window appears.

Select the folder you want to use for briefcases and click Open. After that, any briefcases you create during the same session (that is, as long as you do not log out from Application Editor) will be saved in the folder you selected.

NOTE: Briefcases are simply a specific type of subfolders. In Windows Explorer, you can move briefcases freely from one folder to another.

Creating briefcase

Before you start the actual export, you need to create a briefcase. A briefcase can be created in two ways:

• By right-clicking the default folder in the navigation tree and selecting New Briefcase. This can be practical when you plan to export items from various folders.

• By starting the export (as instructed on page 128) and then selecting the New button in the Export To window. This can be practical when you only plan to export a single item or various items from the same folder.

Page 136: CentricityAnesthesia_ApplicationEditorReferenceManual

Exporting and importing: Selecting items for export

To create a briefcase, do the following:

1. Click the Administration tab. The navigation tree appears, showing the default folder.

2. Right-click the default folder and select New Briefcase. The Edit Briefcase Properties window appears.

NOTE: If you want to create a briefcase in some other folder than the default, select a new folder by right-clicking the default folder and selecting Change Directory.

3. In the Edit Briefcase Properties window, specify a name for the briefcase and click OK.

The new briefcase appears in the folder in the navigation tree.

NOTE: The following characters are not allowed in the briefcase name: - / \ : * ? “ < > |. Also, the briefcase name must be unique. If a briefcase with the same name already exists or you enter characters that are not allowed, the system cannot create the folder and shows an error message.

Selecting items for export

If necessary, you can export the entire Centricity Anaesthesia configuration. However, a more typical case might be to export just some selected items, such as displays, reference data items or printed reports.

You select the items from the tabs and folders in which they are located. For example, to export the entire configuration, open the Application tab and start the export (as instructed in the following section) from there. To export a reference data item, such as a drug, start the export from the Reference Data tab.

Page 137: CentricityAnesthesia_ApplicationEditorReferenceManual

Exporting and importing: Exporting configurations

When you select items for export, the system automatically includes any shortcuts and other related items in the export. If you export a single display, the system includes all displays linked to it, all display components and all related logic rules. For example, when the Allergy display (d)Allergies (GLO) is selected from the navigation tree, the system automatically includes all items you see on the right side of the screen in the figure below.

Exporting configurations

When you want to export the selected item(s), do the following:

1. In the appropriate tabs (e.g. Library or Application), locate the first folder whose contents you want to export, right-click it and select Export. The Export To window appears, showing the contents of the selected folder.

NOTE: If you want to create a new briefcase at this point, click New. In the Edit Briefcase Properties window that appears, the system automatically suggests the name of the selected item as the briefcase name. You can accept the name by clicking OK, or edit the name as desired and then click OK.

2. In the Export To window, select the items that you want to export.

NOTE: You can select several items within one folder at the same time by holding down CTRL key. You can also select an entire folder, or items from many different folders.

3. When you have selected all items you want to include in this export, click OK. The system starts exporting the selected items, and the export progress window appears.

NOTE: The above status window presents a successful export process. If there are errors during the process, the last row of the status window shows the text “Error in export”.

4. If you need to interrupt the export process, click Cancel.

NOTE: If the export process is interrupted by the user or if an error occurs, the system may not remove all documents that were already exported from the briefcase. In such a case, you can delete the briefcase and start again from scratch.

5. When the OK button becomes enabled, the export is ready. Click OK.

After a successful export, you can view the exported items in the selected folder. To refresh the briefcase list, double-click the folder in the navigation tree.

If you did not select a folder (by selecting Change Directory from the popup menu), the exported items are located in the default folder (e.g. C:\Program Files\GE Healthcare\Centricity\Briefcases).

You can either copy the briefcase to another folder for the recipient to pick up from, or send it to the recipient with the file transfer method of your choice. It is practical to compress the briefcase to the .ZIP format for sending. Since a briefcase typically consists of several subfolders, check carefully that you include all subfolders and items in them when compressing.

Display components: Entering dates and times

Entering dates and times

This group includes the following three components:

• Date (page 137)

• Time (page 138)

• DateTime (page 139).

For all these components, the system always saves both the date and time values. For example, when you use the Time component, the system also saves the current date in the database. When you use the Date component, the system also saves the time as 0:00:00.

Make sure you use these components consistently. This means that you need to select the corresponding component (Date, Time or DateTime) in each table where you want to display the date or time value. Otherwise, you might not be able to view the complete data. For example, if you define a Date component for the patient’s date of birth, you will not be able to display the time of birth in a table.

In the SaveTo property, always select a DateTime type element for these components.

Do not use these components for duration calculations (e.g. the duration of anesthesia). Use a read-only text field for duration values.

Date

• For selecting a specific date without the time

• Parts: label, entry area and buttons to change the value

• Entry area is divided into month, year and day sections

Display components: Table components

Configuring row level property and columns

The row level property defines by what information the system builds a row in the table. Usually this is the key node of the query. In case you are defining a table that displays variable data, it is the variable node.

You only select the query node as row level; the property is not selected. This way each document made with that template will build a row in the table. If there are two documents made by the selected template, there will be two rows in the table.

You can configure the columns after the row level. Select an element from the query node. In the Data from property only, select data fields. Do not select collection elements or link the fields. This applies to all kinds of tables.

The data must be retrieved to the columns from the same query as the row level. The other queries are disabled.

Table-Details

The following components can be added to details section:

• Groupbox

• Text field, editable or read-only

• Text area

New, Remove, Update, Add to list buttons properties

Configuring user interface for table components

These instructions apply to both table types (Selection Table and Table-Details).

View only table (Summary)

To create a summary table, define the properties as follows.

• Don't configure any buttons for the table.

• You do not need to leave horizontal gaps between tables. There is an integral margin that leaves a small space between the components. For the Show grid property, select True to see this.

• For the Row level property, select a node that this table primarily describes. For variables, you need to select a variable node (not element) to define the row level.

• For the Columns property, create the columns you want to appear in the table. Make sure the selected document query is the same as the one specified in Row level property. You can set the Data from property to other nodes (=documents) though.

Editable table (e.g. IV Lines, Diagnoses)

• If there is enough horizontal space, it is recommended that you set the Button position property to Right.

• Set the Odd even row coloring property to True to distinguish this table from an editable table.

• For the Row level property, select a node that this table primarily describes. For variables, you need to select a variable node (not element) to define the row level.

• For the Columns property, create the columns you want to appear in the table. Make sure the selected document query is the same as the one specified in Row level property. You can set the Data from property to other nodes (=documents) though.

Display components: Table components

Table user interface and document query mapping

The document queries are mapped to the Data From property of the table columns. For the tables, the Data From property is used differently from display components. It is used to retrieve the data from the database to table.

Table configuration for the repeated elements

For this kind of table, the document query is the same as in normal cases. For example, Allergy, Allergen and Reaction nodes are linked together according to template model.

The row level item is the repeated element. This way the saved value under the repeated element will create a new row.

Columns are configured the same way as in normal cases (e.g. Allergen name and Reaction name).

Each saved entry under the repeated element creates a row in the table. For example, if there are two reactions for an allergen, there will be two rows in the table.

Table configuration for displaying saved variables in the same table

There are cases where you need to include a group of related variables and their values into one table. An example of this would be a table containing all cardiovascular events or laboratory values for the patient.

The query that the system uses to load data to the table contains one variable node. The query is configured in such a manner that it returns the data of all variables in the defined folder. The system looks in this folder and shows values for all variables that have a shortcut in that folder. The row level is the variable node. The result is one row from each saved value of all the variables in the column. The unit of the value is automatically displayed in the table in the same column as the value.

For the columns, you can define one or more of the following: Timestamp, Variable abbreviation, Last Value or All values (either to show only the latest recorded value or all values of each variable), ValueStatus (for laboratory values), ValueComments and Author (the user name who saved the value).

ValueStatus

For laboratory values that are saved from the system interface, column ValueStatus of the variable node can show the status of the value. The value status is one character that represents the status of the value.

The following table lists all supported value status characters, their localization key in the application property file and their english texts.

Page 187: CentricityAnesthesia_ApplicationEditorReferenceManual

Reference data properties: Device interfaces

Device interfaces

To collect data in the Centricity Anaesthesia application, you need to configure medical devices by specifying the following device-related items.

• DeviceVariable documents (page 178)

• DeviceDriver documents (page 179)

• DeviceManager documents (page 180)

• DeviceConnector documents (page 181)

• DeviceConnectionBox documents (page 181)

• Devices document (page 182).

The way you define these items must correspond to the real environment. For a practical example, see "Centricity Anaesthesia Technical Reference Manual". Also, note that the references to the command messages for DeviceLink are written based on the assumption that the default message transformations provided with Centricity Anaesthesia are used in Infoway.

Other reference data documents you need for configuring device interfaces are the following:

• Bed documents (a part of the facility configuration) for defining the default locations for devices

• ConnectionBoxTypes for specifying whether a ConnectionBox is an Ethernetbox, a medical PC or a gateway.

NOTE: Do not modify the ConnectionBoxType documents themselves.

• VariableTypes or defining the type of a device variable (e.g. whether it is a measured value or a device setting.

NOTE: You may not need to define all of the above documents manually. Typically the device drivers and their variables are imported through the system interface.

DeviceVariable documents

A DeviceVariable document specifies a variable that the Centricity Anaesthesia can access through a device’s driver.

Property Description

Type The type of the variable. The options fare Measurement and Device setting. The type must match the type defined in the DeviceLink configuration file driver_info.xml. Select Mea-surement for parameters and Device setting for setData. This link is automatically created when the variable/driver information is imported through the system interface.

Description A free-format text describing this device variable.

Abbreviation The abbreviation of the device variable name. Usually imported through the system interface.

Name The name of the device variable. Usually imported through the system interface.

Page 188: CentricityAnesthesia_ApplicationEditorReferenceManual

Reference data properties: Device interfaces

DeviceDriver documents

A DeviceDriver document specifies the driver that Centricity Anaesthesia uses for a certain type of device. Each device type uses the same DeviceDriver document. For example, all Datex-Ohmeda AS/3 monitors use the same DeviceDriver document.

DeviceDriver documents represent the driver .DLL files that the DeviceLink uses for translating device output into a generic, device-independent format.

MapCode The name of the device variable as it appears in the device driver. Usually imported through the system interface. The value must be the same as the name in the DeviceLink con-figuration file driver_info.xml. (Xpath: iXML/driver-Data/variableData/parameter/param/unmappedName). The variable identifier included in the DeviceLink start messages is retrieved from this field.

MapName A unique identifier of the variable. Usually imported through the system interface. The value should be unique among all the device variables, not just the variables of a specific driver. It is good practice to include both driver and variable names in this field.

SystemName, SystemCode

These fields are reserved for future use.NOTE: Do not modify these values!

Unit A link to a Unit document specifying the unit of this device variable.

NOTE: This field is reserved for future use. Currently, the data collected from devices is saved using the unit of the system variable to which the device variable is mapped. Thus, device variables must always be mapped to system variables that have the same unit.

Property Description

Concurrency Only for pump racks. Defines the number of device connec-tions that the system can establish simultaneously through one instance of the driver.

Name The name of the device type. Usually imported through the system interface. The value must be the same as the name in the DeviceLink configuration file driver_info.xml. (Xpath: iXML/driverData/driver/name).

DLL filename The DLL file name of the driver without the .dll extension. Usually imported through the system interface. This value must be the same as the name in the DeviceLink configura-tion file driver_info.xml. (Xpath: iXML/driverData/driver/fileName).

Abbreviation The abbreviation of the device driver name.

Description A free-format text describing this device variable.

Page 189: CentricityAnesthesia_ApplicationEditorReferenceManual

Reference data properties: Device interfaces

DeviceManager documents

A DeviceManager document represents DeviceLink instances. Each DeviceConnectionBox must have a DeviceManager assigned. This is because the Infoway uses this definition to route command messages to DeviceLinks.

MapCode A unique identifier of the document that can be used as a search key (e.g. in updates through system interface). It is good practice to define a name that reflects both the driver (.DLL file) and the device name, since a single driver can be used for several devices. Usually imported through the sys-tem interface.

MapName Optional field. Additional identifier of the document. Can be imported through the system interface.

SystemName SystemCode

Optional fields. Additional identifiers of the document. Can be imported through the system interface.NOTE: Do not modify these values!

Device type code Mandatory for infusion pumps. For other device types, can be left empty. An integer value specifying the type of device (e.g. monitor, pump rack or ventilator). Specify 2 for infusion pumps. This way, you make sure that the data collection from infusion devices can only be started through the Drugs & Fluids window in the Centricity Anaesthesia application.

Variables A list of mappings between device and system variables.The device variables usually come from driver_info.xml import together with the DeviceDriver and automatically linked to the correct device driver.Each variable pair is documented by linking a device varia-ble to a system variable. To create the mappings, right-click the variables node in the tree and select variable mapping from the popup menu. A new dialog opens where you can define the variable mappings of the device driver. More detailed information about device variable mappings is in the “Centricity Anaesthesia Technical Reference Manual”.

NOTE: If you cannot get any device data to the trends, make sure that you have mapped the variables correctly.

Property Description

Abbreviation The name of the DeviceManager name.

Description A free-format text describing the DeviceManager.

Computer name The name of the computer running DeviceLink. The value of this field is included in the deviceLinkHost element of the device command messages and used for routing in Infoway..

IP address This value is reserved for future use. The IP address of the DeviceManager..

Port number This value is reserved for future use. The port number of the DeviceManager..

Name DeviceManager name.

Primary dosing unit Unit The typical (most commonly used) unit for dosing the product. The unit in which a bolus dose is recorded, or the amount of this drug taken for dilution. Typically, the same as the unit of the primary ingredient of the product. Click the arrow on the right and select the primary dosing unit from the list.NOTE: When defining relative units, you also need to fill in the Other Dos-ing Units field.

Fluid volume unit Unit Unit for measuring the volume of liquid in any pharmaceutical product. Typi-cally, this unit is ‘ml’ for all products.Click the arrow on the right and select the fluid volume unit from the list.

NOTE: This is a mandatory field - even for tablets or other dry substances (select ‘ml’).

Dose-form ratio Float Defines the amount of the primary ingredient in the primary dosing unit per one unit of form (the ratio is usu-ally the same as the concentration of primary ingredient). If there is no pri-mary ingredient, the ratio is typically 1. Examples: Fentanyl inj has a primary ingredient - the ratio is 50 (50 µg/ 1 mL) Acetosalicylic acid tabl - the ratio is 500 (if 500 mg / 1 tablet) Vancomycin dry powder- the ratio is 500 (500 mg / 1 amp) NaCl 0.9% fluid has no primary ingre-dient - the ratio is 1 (1 mL / 1 mL).

Other Dosing Units Optional. When you want to use rela-tive units, click the arrow on the right and select the relative unit from the list. You can define one relative unit for boluses and one for infusions.NOTE: You need to specify the Pri-mary Dosing Unit first.

Volume-form ratio Float Defines how much fluid volume one unit of form contains. Typically, if the unit of form is 1) tablet, the ratio is 0,2) liquid, the ratio is 1 3) a container, such as ampoule, the ratio is the amount of volume in one ampoule.

Balance effect form ratio Float Defines the volumetric effect of a liq-uid product. Typically, the ratio is 1 for liquids. Theoretically, in e.g. strong glucose solutions, such as 30% glucose, the effective volume increasing intravas-cular volume is less than 1. For 30% glucose it is about 0.8 (for 'dry' forms, this ratio is not relevant because the previous fluid-volume ratio already is 0; thus, balance effect form ratio can be 0 or 1).

Printout components: Components for showing documented data

(*) Time span property:When using the time span the you can select one option from the list:

• None

• Active case

• Case class reference document x (e.g. intraoperative case)

• Case class reference document y (e.g. perioperative case)

You can select some 'case class reference document x or y' when you want to get data outside the current active case. For example in case of a report printed out in pacu (and from pacu application) containing intraoperative data.

You can also type in your own time span. It has to be in the form:[+ -] 0-9 min | h | d | m

So there can be + or - sign in the beginning but it is not obligatory.

After that you must enter number(s), one or more.

After the numbers give the unit: min, h, d (days) or m (months).

The parts can be separated with spaces.

Examples:+7d

7 D

- 1 h

-10M

The time starts (or ends, if minus sign is used) always from (to) reference time, which by default is the current time, unless defined otherwise. This means that if you want to use the -7d option to print all the cases from last week, and you don't set the reference time, the system will print starting 7 days prior to the printing time until the printing time. For example, if the printing time is Fri 10:36, then the report is printed from Fri 10:36 last week until Fri 10:36 today)

The reference time can be set with rules. A function for this is Set reference time which accepts one parameter. Select the parameter from a query node.

Line color 0, 0, 0Black
