• Since all devices are configured to sync automatically on a regular schedule, the patient information on your device is usually up to date.

• However, if you think some new information might have come in recently for a particular patient, and you do not want to wait for the next Automatic Sync to see it, you can do a quick Refresh to retrieve it. A Refresh retrieves the most recent information for the currently selected patient, in the current module.

To perform a Refresh, - Go to the Summary screen for one of these modules: Allergies, Clinical Notes, I/Os, Lab Results, Medications, Order Status, Test Results, or Vital Signs.- Touch the screen anywhere below the heading area, drag down, and release. The latest information for this patient in this module is quickly retrieved and displayed.
