Graphical patient timeline in Soap format

Image
Usually we use to write fever chart in *SOAP* format- top to bottom.   S- subjectivecomplaints-  Next day , mention the same, whether it was subsided or not .   O- In objective , I used to include those parameters only, which I want to monitor daily... ( because I don't want to make it clumpsy). Like - abdominal girth in Ascites . Daily weight measurement in Heart failure.   A- in Assement , I used to mention the investigations,which I used to monitor daily. Like - TLC in Sepsis . But my friends and other interns used to mention every investigation though it was normal, which I was not interested.   P- plan . .. please mention the drugs along with interventions that you are giving to patient... On next day , mention if any new drugs were added .. Or mention if any drug was stopped.
