10.3.2. Entering Weight, Age, TPR

To begin moving patients through Patient Flow, you will first need to record key information on the Exam & Pre-med tab.

Follow these steps:

1. Once the animal is weighed, record their official weight in the Kgs or Lbs column. If the weight is estimated, toggle the Weight Estimated switch. If you need to restart, click the Clear button to erase the data.
2. Record if the patient is pediatric or adult by clicking on the dropdown menu in the Age column. This will be particularly important for age-based medications, like Meloxicam.
3. To record the patient’s TPR, click the Normal button under the Exam column. Enter the exam veterinarian, the vitals, and any findings. Click Done to save.

Note: Once an official weight is set in Patient Flow, you will not be able to edit this from the Checkout page.
