  1. Turn the tablet that is connected with the VitalStream monitor on

  2. Once the tablet is turned on and connected with your VitalStream monitor for vitals, go to the bottom left of the screen and select the the patient icon button.

  3. Then select the camera icon

  4. At this point you will go to the device you are logged into Xchart.com with

  5. Select a patient you can test the monitor connection with and go into the anesthesia record.

    **NOTE: you cannot use the “Test Monitor Connection” for this—you will need to create an actual test case instead. This is because the VitalStream monitor sends data directly to our server, and the demo cases used during connection tests aren’t saved to the server. If you try and test the monitor connection with this button it will NOT work.

  6. Select "connect vitals monitor" from the monitor set up tab or from the upper right corner of the chart.

  7. Select "VitalStream"

  8. Then with the tablet you have the camera mode turned on with, capture the QR code from within the Xchart anesthesia record.

  9. Hit "apply" on the tablet

  10. Then back on the Xchart platform select "use this connection"

    This video will also walk you through this process if you prefer this instead.
