epoc Minute Ventilation for RT

Hi All,


 We recently expanded our epocs to Respiratory Therapy.  epoc doesn't have a field for minute ventilation, which RT is telling us is critical for treatment of their patients.  Do any of you have epocs in RT, how did you get around minute ventilation?


Thanks!

They calculate minute ventilation and/or alveolar ventilation and enter it in the free text comments, as applicable. All comments are included on the lab report. They were so happy to get A, A-a and a/A added to the epoc calculations, they haven't complained about not having any others. I do believe that VE and VA are on the request list for future software upgrades.
