Use the Draw Tool for Charting

This user guide will walk you through the efficient use of the Draw Tool for clear and comprehensive charting in DigiMEDSPA's EMR Portal.

Understanding Terminologies

Draw Tool

The Draw Tool is a digital feature within EMR systems that allows practitioners to visually mark, annotate, and highlight treatment areas on body templates or patient photos. It's commonly used for cosmetic procedures like injectables or laser treatments to precisely document injection points, target zones, and other relevant details. This helps ensure accuracy in charting and improves treatment consistency.

Charting

Charting in a cosmetic procedure involves documenting detailed information about the patient's treatment, including the type of procedure performed, the areas treated, products or substances used (such as injectables or fillers), dosages, and the techniques applied. It may also include visual documentation, such as photos or markings, to record treatment areas and injection points. Accurate charting is critical for monitoring results and ensuring patient safety in cosmetic procedures.

Use the Draw Tool for Charting

  1. The user can use the draw tool for charting only while creating a cosmetic procedure. You can create a cosmetic procedure from five entry points.
    1. From the EMR Board tabs, click on the “MDRoom” tab and select "New Cosmetic Procedure" to create one.
    2. From the EMR Board tabs, click on the “Provider Room” tab and select "New Cosmetic Procedure".
    3. From the EMR Board select an appointment or booking that is in the ‘’Check-in’’ step then press the ‘’Next’’ button to move that booking to the ‘’In Procedure’’ phase.
      When a booking is in progress, the user can choose to create either a health procedure or a cosmetic procedure based on the specific requirements. Selecting "Cosmetic Procedure" will take the user to the first step of creating a cosmetic procedure.
    4. From the EMR Board tabs, click on “Patients.”
      From the patient list, click on three dots under the action column and select "New Cosmetic Procedure" for the specific patient.
    5. From the EMR Board tabs, click on “Bookings.”
      From the list of all bookings, click on three dots under the action column and select "New Cosmetic Procedure" for the specific booking.
      Note: Clicking the "New Cosmetic Procedure" button from any entry point will take the user to step 1 of creating a cosmetic procedure. If patient information and booking details are already entered, the user will go directly to Step 3 of creating a cosmetic procedure.
  2. Complete all the 7 steps of creating a cosmetic procedure, then proceed to the charting screen. Here you can see the draw tool for charting on the right side.
    Note: You can learn more about creating a cosmetic procedure in detail by referring to our ‘’Create a Cosmetic Procedure’’ user guide.
  3. To add a text, click the ‘’A’’ icon.
    Note: The position of text is in the top left corner by default but you can drag the text to change its position.
  4. To draw something, click the ‘’pencil’’ icon to draw freely anywhere on the charting screen.
  5. To zoom in the screen, click on the ‘’zoom in’’ icon.
  6. To zoom out the screen, click on the ‘’zoom out’’ icon.
  7. To undo an action, simply click the 'undo' icon. In this example, the drawing has been undone.
  8. To redo an action, click the 'redo' icon. In this example, the drawing reappears after clicking the redo button.
  9. To reset the changes, click on the 'reset' icon. This will restore the image to its original state and remove all text and drawings.
  10. Click on the ‘’Save’’ button once you are done.
    Note: In addition to using the drawing tool, users can add products such as injections and adjust injection markings as needed. Injection markings ensure precise product placement for optimal results and symmetry, while the charting feature provides detailed documentation of injection sites and dosages for accurate patient records and follow-up care. For detailed navigation on managing injection markings, refer to our "Add / Edit / Move Injection Markings" user guide.
