Inpatient — Temperature Chart
Status: Under development (GitHub issue #21653). This article is a stub and will be expanded once the feature is released.
The Temperature Chart is a graphical time-series of a patient's recorded temperature readings during an inpatient admission, shown on the Admission Profile Dashboard so ward staff can see the temperature trend over the whole stay at a glance.
What it shows
- All temperature readings recorded for the current BHT, plotted against time
- A line chart rendered with the same Chart.js infrastructure used by the OPD Health Analytics tab
- (Planned) optional overlay of other vital signs — pulse rate, respiratory rate, SpO₂ — on the same time axis
Where the data comes from
Temperature is already captured as a vital sign on the inpatient Clinical Assessment form (InpatientClinicalDataController) for each ward-round note. The chart reads those recorded values for the BHT — no new data entry is required.
