Learning Objectives After instruction, students will be able to complete the following tasks: Access and navigate SQWM Documentation module through the SQWM Documentation icon. Access and Navigate OR Census and Pending Work Census Access and Complete Scripts Document Forms Additional Step when Signing V-forms Document Patient Vitals Access and navigate Periop Nursing Documentation through the Periop Nursing Documentation icon for documenting Patient In Facility READ and DISCUSS Learning Objectives. TRANSITION: Let’s take a look at where you document your Same Day Surgery and Preop Holding nursing care.
3
SQWM Documentation Icon
DISCUSS: Selecting the SQWM Documentation icon takes you to the login screen for the Centricity Perioperative Anesthesia (CPA) application, which contains the v- forms and scripts for all perioperative care events except intraoperative. TRANSITION: When you log into SQWM Documentation for Preop, the initial screen defaults to the OR Census.
4
OR Census Overview DISCUSS:
When users select OR Census, the patients assigned to them for the current day populate automatically. Other search criteria, such as date, name, etc. can be added. You can enter a date range, or if looking for today’s patients only, leave it at the default of the current date. To search for a specific patient, enter the last name in the Last Name field and click Search. You can also search by Social Security Number, or use the Quick Search option, which uses the first initial of the patient's last name and the final 4 of the Social Security Number. The Search functionality is a smart search and narrows options as you type. Other search options include specific personnel, such as attending or resident, as well as case number or OR room number. Column headings include Name, OR Scheduled, Scheduled Time, SSN, DOB, Anesthesia Attending, Procedure, CRNA, Resident, Preop Eval v-form, Surgeon, Case Number, PAT Concerns and Clinic. You can sort the columns by double clicking the column header. TRANSITION: Let’s look at documentation options for the OR Census.
5
OR Census Menu Options DISCUSS:
When you click on the patient that you wish to document on, a menu of options displays. The menu options depend on the role you are assigned. The ones that we discuss today include: Surgery Verification Call, PREOP/PACU RECORD and PostOp Phone Call. TRANSITION: The other census option that you have access to is the Pending Work Census.
6
Pending Work Census Options
EXPLAIN: Any unsigned v-forms display on the Pending Work Census. The Worklist column indicates whether it is an unlocked v-form, procedure, etc. The patient’s name displays in the Name column. The last 4 of Social Security Number (SSN), Requisition Number, Date of Service and the Worklist Details display in the remaining columns. Click on the patient and the form opens. Complete the form and then sign and lock. The form drops off the Pending work Census. TRANSITION: Let’s look at where you document the Preperioperative Care Event. It is the only care event, with the exception of Intraoperative, that is documented in Periop Nursing Documentation.
7
Access Surgery Verification Call
DISCUSS: Surgery Verification Call and Preop Nursing Call are accessed from the OR Census. First, select and click on your patient and then select the call you are making. Click on the desired documentation to begin charting. TRANSITION: Surgery Verification Call and Preop Nursing Call are v-forms that are completed in the Preperioperative Care Event.
8
Surgery Verification Call
DISCUSS: The Surgery Verification Call is used by either a clerk or nurse to verify that the patient knows the correct time to arrive for surgery, has appropriate transportation arranged, where they are staying the night before surgery and who they spoke with and the number that they can be reached at. This can be done 1 to 2 days prior to surgery. The process for documenting in v-forms is the same. TRANSITION: Let’s look at the Preop Assessment form for an example of how to document v-forms.
9
Enter Data in V-Forms EXPLAIN:
To enter data in the v-forms, certain script items, when selected, present a picklist of choices to select. Many times a default value displays, but this can be altered by selecting the field and a value from the list displayed. Note: There are no arrows on the dropdown fields; however, a list of choices display when a field is selected. Items for required documentation display in red font and have an asterisk next to the field. If these items are not documented when the user attempts to lock the case they are prompted to complete the remaining required items.
10
Signing V-Forms DISCUSS:
There is an additional step when you sign your documents. After you click “I, … have completed and reviewed this note.” The Password Required window displays. Enter your password in the field, and then click OK. TRANSITION: Now, let’s take a look at how you can quickly tell which patients have had their surgery verification call completed.
11
Surgery Verification Call Completed
DISCUSS: After you have completed and signed the Surgery Verification Call form, the line for that patient in OR Census turns green. You can see which patients have had their Surgery Verification Call completed at a glance. The legend showing the color is at the bottom of the screen. TRANSITION: There is one item that is documented in Periop Nursing Documentation.
12
Periop Nursing Documentation
DISCUSS: Periop Nursing Documentation is where the patient arriving in the facility is documented. This is the only documentation in Periop Nursing Documentation except for the Intraop Care Event. Click on Periop Nursing Documentation. Log into Centricity Perioperative Manager Clinical Documentation. Select your patient from Case Selection. TRANSITION: The Times module is where we will look next.
13
Times EXPLAIN: Select the Times icon and document the time the patient arrived in the facility. This triggers the change in Tracker and alerts staff by the color change that the patient has arrived in the facility. A simple way to document the time as you work is to click the Current icon to enter the current time. Some facilities are granting access to this module to auxiliary staff and they are doing this step at the time of check-in. Please check with your supervisor for the policy at your facility. TRANSITION: Next we will learn about scripts. We return to SQWM Documentation where everything else is documented for Preop.
14
Preop Nursing Documentation
EXPLAIN: The Scripts are accessed by clicking PREOP/PACU Record. TRANSITION: Let’s look at the different script options.
15
SQWM Documentation Script Choices

Click on the ( – ) beside Anesthesia to close that option and click on the ( + ) in front of the care event that you wish to document. PREOP opens to one choice (Case Cancellation is not an option). Choose the desired script by clicking it. TRANSITION: Let’s look at the information that displays in the scripts.
16
Scripts in SQWM Documentation
DISCUSS: When the script opens, you see a banner with the patient information and the clock showing the amount of time since you clicked PreOp start, designating the beginning of their time in that care event. Just below this is a standard toolbar for all the scripts. The format of the scripts and the way you document in them are the same no matter which care event you are in. TRANSITION: We will look at the script toolbar next.
17

Review We have covered the following topics:
Access and navigate SQWM Documentation module through the SQWM Documentation icon. Access and Navigate OR Census and Pending Work Census Access and Complete Scripts Document Forms Additional Step when Signing V-forms Document Patient Vitals Access and navigate Periop Nursing Documentation through the Periop Nursing Documentation icon for documenting Patient In Facility REVIEW: In this section, we learned how to log in, access and navigate in SQWM Documentation. We discussed how to search for and select patients, and that we document all care events except Intraoperative in SQWM Documentation. We do, however, still document the time the patient arrived in the facility on the Times screen in the Preperioperative Care Event. We also learned about scripts, how to access scripts for the different care events, how to document in them and how to edit them. We reviewed how to document in v-forms and the new step when signing and locking v-forms. We learned how to document vital signs for sites that are using device capture and how to when facilities are not. What questions do you have about any of those processes? ASK: What are the differences in where you chart your care events? Where would you click to access those areas?
36
SDS/ Preop Real World Scenario
Patient C presents for left shoulder arthroscopy with subacromial decompression and is going to have an infraclavicular brachial plexus block with continuous catheter placement in holding. You gave 3 mg of Versed for the block. Document your care for this patient. ASSIST: Move around room providing assistance as necessary. ASK: What questions do you have about the new places to document your care event? How do you access it? INSTRUCT: Provide directions to complete the exercise. Log into SQWM Documentation.
