Importing ECGs via HL7 Results
This section refers specifically to importing ECG trace documents in PDF form, from an HL7 result sent to you from your laboratory.
You can also import an ECG:
- Manually, by scanning it via the Documents tab of the Clinical window.
- Via a supported ECG device, using Medical Director's Tool Box.
To prepare for importing ECG trade documents in PDF form:
- Ensure you are registered for MD Exchange. See Registering MD Exchange for detailed instructions.
- Ensure you have elected to participate in MD Exchange. Select and check your participation setting.
- Ensure you have informed your laboratory that you wish to receive copies of ECG traces electronically. Currently this service is provided by Laverty, Dorevitch, and Western's Diagnostic Pathology.
