Abbreviations

Abbreviations are essentially frequently used text inserted into a patient's consult using keystrokes.

For example, if you want to type Informed Patient Consent Obtained, you could abbreviate this as pc, and then type \pc to insert the entire phrase. For more information about abbreviations, see Manage Abbreviations.

Before you can use abbreviations, you must add them to Helix. For more information, see Manage Abbreviations.
Each user has their own list of abbreviations, and it cannot be shared between users.
