Publication number: 20210233629Abstract: An electronic medical records system providing a graphical user interface for receipt of data into a shared “chart” configured to receive data associated with multiple associated patients (e.g., mother and baby). The system is structured to provide a link from the shared chart to the electronic medical records of individual patients associated with the shared chart, and to provide data sharing and/or automated population of data from the shared chart into multiple linked electronic medical records of multiple patients in an appropriate selective fashion. The shared chart may be structured to gather information according to particular clinical workflows for multiple patients, and on a single interface window displayable on a single display screen. The system avoids duplicative data entry and associated errors while ensuring that the both related charts are up to date, and allows for compact data input and display relative to available physical space on a display device.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 25, 2021Publication date: July 29, 2021Inventor: Michelle Gray
