Clinical Drawer
The Clinical Drawer function allows you to use an anatomy image from our library to draw and annotate on. You also have the option to upload an image yourself to modify for the patient file. This tutorial will go through the various functions of the Clinical Drawer, and how to manage the drawings.
Within the patient record, click on the Clinical tab.
Click on Clinical Drawings
You will be taken to the Clinical Drawings screen for that patient's clinical record.
Checking the box next to a drawing will reveal a list of options. There is also the Filter and Search functions on the right as shown.

There are three categories of images in the Clinical Drawer.
Custom

You have a variety of tools to modify your drawing. In this case, we will draw a red circle on the toe.

You will also note the two tick-boxes underneath the drawing: checking the Add to Today's Notes tick-box will append the drawing in your current consultation. Furthermore, click the Confidential tick-box will make the drawing confidential (i.e. only you can see it).
Click Save when you are finished.
