9. Setting Up Patients

Patients you have previously added to your PT+ Clinic main view will appear on this list.

• If your patient has already downloaded PT+ and created their account, you can add them to this view by tapping the grid icon at top right. (See Getting Oriented.
• To invite a new patient to PT+, see Setting Up Patients.

There are two ways to access patient records in PT+ Clinic, Edit and View.

Use Edit to make changes to the patient’s diagnosis or exercise program, or to record new exercise baselines.

Any changes you make will immediately be applied and visible to the patient in their PT+ app.

If you make a mistake or wish to back out of any changes you’ve made while in Edit mode, tap Cancel to discard all changes and return to the prior screen.

Note that while you're editing a patient record, the patient will be unable to use PT+ to record exercises at home. If you don't need to make any changes, or are just reviewing the patient's progress, always use view mode. When you do need to edit a patient's details, it's important to complete and save your changes promptly.

Use View mode to review patient exercises and progress without affect any changes.

If you don't need to make any changes, or are just reviewing the patient's progress, always use view mode as patients cannot record exercises at home with PT+ while their record is being edited.

Note that any changes you apply to a patient’s exercise program will be published and visible in the PT+ patient app immediately.

1. In Edit mode, tap on an exercise.

2. On the exercise details screen, you can:

• Adjust repetitions.
• Adjust hold time for the exercise.
• Add a custom note. Custom notes are visible to patients at the top of the exercise description in PT+.
• Adjust the speed for audio prompts. When patients exercise using PT+, audio prompts guide them on when to begin each repetition. This slider adjusts the expected time allowed for the completion of each rep before the patient is prompted to begin the next rep.

Note that Hold Time and Audio Prompt Speed work together to define the total time before a patient is prompted to begin their next rep. For example, an 8 second prompt speed with a 2 second hold setting means the patient will be prompted to begin a new rep every 10 seconds (8 second speed setting + 2 second hold = 10 seconds).

Tap Save to apply your changes. Any changes you apply will be visible to the patient immediately.

To return to the prior screen with applying changes, tap the < symbol at top left.
