I'm looking for a way to add multiple values for a single obsterm during the same update but would like to have different timestamp values on each entry.
Basically, we take multiple vitals readings during a procedure, and rather than using multiple obsterms for each reading, I'd like to enter all readings under the same obsterm w/ different timestamps so that a flowsheet could be easily viewed chronologically by minutes.
Ideally I would want to push the obsvalue w/ timestamp via a button in the form but I can't seem to be able to edit the timestamp using obsnow… it will let you add the date in a mm/dd/yyyy format, but not the time. From what I can tell, the only way I can edit the timestamp would be to manually change it using "ADD_FLOWSHEET" then put in the value and change the time on each one (it defaults to the time on the update which is a little aggravating). Any ideas?
***Even more strange, if the date being pushed is a date other than that of the document it will add the obsvalue with the date & timestamp as I want it to - it will work either using mm/dd/yyyy text date OR str(._TODAYSDATE + " " + TIMESTAMP()) if today's date is different than the doc date. But it doesn't work if the date pushed is the same as the document date, no matter how I format it! Grrr...
