'[The Getz Clinical modules] give me the ability to clearly interpret the patients' anaesthetic journey. It allows me to easily and concisely record my nursing cares in the post anaesthetic unit, giving a smooth transition for the patient and a greater overall picture of the patient’s surgical journey. I couldn't go back to scrawled paper notes.'
Bobbi van Dinther, Registered Nurse, Forté Health
Getz Clinical PACU
The Getz Clinical PACU module is for use in post anaesthetic care units and continues the process of automated charting begun in the Getz Clinical Induction and IntraOp modules. Data entry is via a touch screen interface on the Getz Touch GT-30-19 multimedia wide-screen medical-grade computer.
Vital signs downloaded directly from patient monitors can be annotated. Observations and other details can be recorded manually, including:
- medications and fluids
- pain, nausea and sedation scores
- wound and pain management
- neurovascular assessments and Bromage scores
- level of consciousness, airway management and patient disposition
- arterial blood gas (ABG) and pathology results
- discharge protocol and ward instructions
- ward equipment (for tracking and inventory)
- arrest and critical events
Staff in attendance and staff changes can be recorded easily.
A recovery report is automatically generated and saved in the Chronology module.
