Hi Patricia- Depending on how your Pharmacy is currently entering them and how Nursing is used to seeing them on your paper MAR, I think most sites use Label Comments for such entries. I'd recommend looking at Admin Criteria (Magic) or Protocols (CS) - it separates out the data very cleanly and the word on the street is that MT will have some functionality/logic to read a blood sugar and display the units needed from those dictionaries.coming soon! Remember, if you do add those Admin Criteria or Protocols, those fields will need to be added to your current outputs - MAR's, PHA labels, Clinical Reports, etc. Be well - Kevin.
