Automatic Conversion between Metric and English Systems for Vital Signs (Weight) in Provider Notes

Patient > Provider Note > Add / Edit Note > Vitals

In the Provider Notes section, when entering weight within the Vitals component, the user can choose either “Metric” or “English” from the dropdown menu. After entering and accepting the weight value, the application automatically displays the entered unit, with the alternate system shown in parentheses. For instance, if the user selects “English,” the weight appears as “Weight: 150lbs (68kg),” while selecting “Metric” shows “Weight: 68kg (150lbs).” This feature eliminates the need for manual conversions, ensuring the provider has access to both units for easy reference.
