Tutorial on deleting a patient or results in Spida 5 and changing the password to enable delete
This is a simple guide on how to delete either a patient or a patient result from the Spida 5 software.
- Select the patient you wish to delete information for.
- In this case I have selected patient Baines and the time stamp 25/10/2002, which you can see highlighted in blue below
- Once you have done this, click on Data
- Then select Enable delete. This will activate the delete function in Spida 5
- A prompt will then be displayed asking for a password

- If you wish to delete the Examination of the patient
- Click on Data
- Then click on delete Examination
