We have some new company settings within Setup > Administrative Setup > Company Settings that have been created to allow practices to have more control over the display of blood pressure and BMI data including how far back we should pull the data. These are optional settings; the default is to display Vitals data as we always have without any color coding for high/low values and looking back at all vitals data. The only default change is that we will pull the most recent 3 vital record dates (instead of just a single most-recent vitals record date).
New AMP Vitals Company Settings:
You will find 7 new Company Settings within Setup > Administrative Setup > Company Settings (search AMP Vitals):
The new company settings for enhanced BP display (high and low values for BP) are:
- Blood Pressure Abnormal Values - Diastolic - High (will display Diastolic Highs in red font)
- Blood Pressure Abnormal Values - Diastolic - Low (will display Diastolic Lows in blue font)
- Blood Pressure Abnormal Values - Systolic - High (will display Systolic Highs in red font)
- Blood Pressure Abnormal Values - Systolic - Low (will display Systolic Lows in blue font)
The new company settings for enhanced BMI display (high and low values for BMI) are:
- BMI Abnormal Values - High (will display BMI Highs in red font)
- BMI Abnormal Values - Low (will display BMI Lows in blue font)
One additional Vitals setting allows a practice to set the cutoff days (how far back we look for data to pull in). This is for practices that want to make sure they are only displaying the most current vitals data (e.g., within 180 days or 365 days) and we are excluding any vitals data recorded before the practice specified number of cutoff days set.
- Practice AMP Vitals Display Cutoff Days (by default we have no cutoff and will pull back whatever vitals data records you have, but we pull the most recent 'three' records based on the vitals date)
Example Display with New Company Settings in Place:
Below is an example of how the new company settings referenced above can change the display of AMP data:
- Notice under Blood Pressure the result 129/91 displays the 91 in red font (setting that triggered this display is Blood Pressure Abnormal Values - Diastolic - High
- Notice under BMI the value is displayed in blue font (setting that triggered this display is BMI Abnormal Values - Low
- Additionally, this patient has older Vitals records but because we have our practice database set to a 365 day cutoff, we only see the item that occurred within the 365 day cutoff (setting that triggered this display is Practice AMP Vitals Display Cutoff Days
