please - be careful choosing the units for your measurements!
there are plenty of different units used around the world - preferentially use SI units!

casedata

case name

test

case ID number

hospital

optional information, default derived from your ip-adress

date of measurement

adapt as necessary:

format
YYYYMMDD

time of measurement

adapt as necessary:

format
hh:mm:ss

e-mail adress
(optional, kept strictly confidential!)

you can write "at" instead of "@"

we are constantly improving the scripts
and might like to contact you!

clinical data

required data
age	75	years	if less than a year old, use age 1 year nonetheless!
sex	male
primary pathology			the primary pathologic process in this case choose from the list!

optional data
secondary pathology
tertiary pathology
primary diagnosis				not required, but welcome! write free text - optional data!
secondary diagnosis
tertiary diagnosis
respiration type

chemical data

required data
pH
BE (base excess) read more!		mEq/l	required for cross-checking purposes
Na read more! about the influence of serum Na⁺ on its ionic activity		mmol/l
normal value for Na	range - adjust for the values at your institution!	mmol/l
K		mmol/l
Cl		mmol/l	may you make an educated guess about chloride? NO - why???: read more!
normal value for Cl	range - adjust for the values at your institution!	mmol/l
PCO2			be careful choosing the unit! (mmHg or kPa - this is essential!)
albumin the most prominent of the weak acids read more!			may you make an educated guess about albumin? yes - BUT: read more!

optional data
lithium		mmol/l
Mg
Ca (total, not ionised ) read more!
phosphate
lactate			registering this value is strongly recommended!
haemoglobin			only useful for calculating UIX (unknown ion excess) (if not given, a value of 6 mmol/l / 100g/l is assumed.)
osmolality (freezepoint method)		mosmol/l	only required if you want to calculate the osmotic gap, strongly recommended in cases of intoxication or ketoacidosis
glucose
urea
ethanol or other osmotically active substances (1 %o ethanol is 21 mosmol/l)		mosmol/l	do not register anionic substances like hydroxybutyrate (because their osmotic effect is already accounted for by the corresponding kation)
did you "buffer" with trometamol (THAM), e.g. as tribonate®? read more!	yes?	mmol/l

we do not require registering the haemoglobin value - WHY? read more!
