Quick Start
1
Type the values. Click any position, empty or filled, to type its value; clear it to leave the spot blank.
2
Add panels. + Panel under the chart adds a BMP; hover a panel to switch it to CBC, coags, LFT, ABG or Ca/Mg/Phos, or click × to remove it.
3
Paste a row. In the Outline panel, one panel per line: BMP 06:00: 138 / 4.1 / 102 / 24 / 18 / 1.1 / 112.
4
Spot abnormals. Values outside adult ranges turn red with ↑ or blue with ↓. Pick US or SI ranges, or turn Flag abnormal off.
5
Copy into a note. Copy text gives a plain-text fishbone for the EHR; Export PNG for slides.
6
No patient details. Links carry the data itself, so never type names or identifiers. A drawing aid, not clinical decision support.

Questions

Which panels can I draw?

BMP (Chem-7), CBC, coags (PT, PTT, INR), LFT, ABG and Ca/Mg/Phos. Up to 8 panels per chart.

Can I copy and paste a fishbone into a note?

Yes. Copy text gives a plain-text fishbone that lines up in a monospace font.

How are abnormal values flagged?

Red with ↑ when high, blue with ↓ when low, against common adult ranges in US or SI units.

Can I trust the flags clinically?

No. It is a drawing aid, not decision support. Reference ranges vary by lab; check yours.

Is patient data stored?

Nothing is stored, but links encode the values, so never enter names or identifiers.
