	~~==How To Enter Vital Information==~~		This page is dedicated to '''monitoring and recording vital signs''', offering a real-time snapshot of a patient's health and long-term trends over time. Vitals are essential for clinical assessment and must be associated with a patient encounter.
	~~The user has the option~~ to ~~either manually enter vitals into the~~ patient ~~chart using the steps below or to leverage the power of AI in speeding up the workflow~~. ~~See the video below~~ for ~~documentation on how to achieve both workflows~~.

	~~[[File:VEHRDICT-Howto-AiVitalEntry_-_4K~~.~~mov\|800px]]~~		To begin, navigate to the patient's chart and select the '''Vitals''' tab at the top of the screen.

	~~==Step 1~~: ~~Patient Dashboard==~~		[[File:VEHRDICT-Howto-AiVitalEntry_-_4K.mov\|center\|800px\|Documenting Vitals Manually or via AI]]

	~~#Vitals must be linked~~ to ~~an encounter. In order to enter vitals, first navigate to the '''dashboard of the patient'''.~~		== How to Enter Vital Information ==
	~~#If an encounter is not selected, Vehrdict will prompt the user to select an encounter.~~

	~~==Step 2~~: ~~Select the Patient==~~		Users have two options for entering vitals:
	~~#This can be done~~ by ~~searching for the patient under the '''search tab''' or by clicking on the appointment from the calendar and selecting '''patient chart'''.~~		* Manually, by filling in vital fields
	~~#The user also has the option~~ to ~~search for the patient by their name from the search bar at the top of the page.~~		* Using VEHRDICT’s voice-powered AI to enter vitals via dictation

	~~==Step 3~~: ~~Enter Vitals==~~		{{Tip\|Use the microphone icon and say “Add vitals for John Doe: temperature is 98.6, heart rate is 78” to quickly document vitals hands-free.}}

	From the '''~~Vitals List~~''' ~~page~~, ~~click '''Add New'''~~ to ~~enter new~~ vitals ~~for the patient~~.		== Step 1: Navigate to the Patient Dashboard ==
			# From the main navigation, access the '''Patient Dashboard'''.
			# Vitals must be associated with a patient encounter.
			# If no encounter is selected, VEHRDICT will prompt you to choose one before entering vitals.

			{{Warning\|Vitals cannot be recorded without linking to a patient encounter. Be sure to create or select an active encounter before proceeding.}}

	~~[[File~~:~~vitals_list_nx~~.~~jpg\|800px]]~~		== Step 2: Select the Patient ==
			You can select the patient in one of the following ways:
			* Use the '''Search''' tab to locate the patient by name, DOB, or other identifiers.
			* Click on the appointment from the calendar and select '''Patient Chart'''.
			* Use the universal search bar at the top of the page.

	==Step 3: ~~Display~~==		== Step 3: Enter Vitals ==
	~~The vitals page will now dynamically update and show the most recent vitals taken, their applicable chart, and will display when each vital entry is outside of a healthy parameter.~~

			Once in the '''Vitals List''':
			# Click '''Add New''' to open the vital sign entry form.
			# Input key vitals such as:
			## Temperature
			## Heart Rate
			## Respiratory Rate
			## Blood Pressure (Systolic/Diastolic)
			## Oxygen Saturation
			## Weight
			## Height
			## BMI (auto-calculated)

	[[File:vital_display_nx.jpg\|800px]]		[[File:vitals_list_nx.jpg\|center\|800px\|Vitals Entry Form]]

			== Step 4: View Vitals Chart ==

			After entry, VEHRDICT will dynamically update the vitals dashboard, which includes:
			* Most recent values
			* Historical trends
			* Visual graphs of each metric
			* Highlights for out-of-range values (e.g., red for abnormal results)

			[[File:vital_display_nx.jpg\|center\|800px\|Vitals Display & Chart]]

			{{Tip\|Use the chart view to identify patterns such as consistently elevated BP or weight gain over time. Hover over data points for detailed timestamps.}}

			== Summary ==

			VEHRDICT’s vitals feature ensures accurate, efficient, and AI-assisted documentation of patient health. Regular updates help providers monitor changes in patient condition and guide timely interventions.
