The Form filling info APIs provide endpoints to get info about medical form templates. These endpoints are used to get info about medical form templates.

Supported medical form template types

Medical form templates are predefined templates that are used to collect information from the patient. Suki supports the following MedicalFormType values:

Template reference

The sections below summarize what each supported template type captures. Field names and enums come from each template schema. Use the Suki medical form templates endpoint for the authoritative definitions in your environment.
Captures standard vital signs and related comfort measures. Typical fields include:
  • Temperature (with site), heart rate, pulse rhythm and quality
  • Respiratory rate and effort
  • Blood pressure (systolic and diastolic, site, patient position)
  • SpO₂, oxygen delivery method, and flow rate
  • Pain score (0–10) with location and description
  • Additional comments
Roughly 20 fields. Common for nursing intake, reassessment, and rapid checks.
Documents neurological status. Typical fields include:
  • Level of consciousness and orientation (person, place, time, situation)
  • Speech quality and behavior or affect
  • Pupil assessment per eye (size, shape, reactivity, accommodation)
  • Glasgow Coma Scale (Eye, Verbal, Motor, Total)
  • Extremity strength (1–5 scale for all four limbs)
  • Light touch sensation, paresthesia, hand grips, and foot pushes
Evaluates skin integrity and wound care. Typical fields include:
  • Skin color, temperature, moisture, turgor, and integrity findings (abrasion, bruising, rash, and similar)
  • Pressure injury assessment (location, stage 1–4 or unstageable, size in cm, drainage, periwound condition, dressing type, wound care interventions)
  • Incision or surgical site assessment (approximation, drainage type and amount, odor, dressing status, sutures, staples, or glue status)
Assesses the respiratory system. Typical fields include:
  • Respiratory pattern, effort, work of breathing, and chest expansion or symmetry
  • Breath sounds per lung lobe (RUL, RML, RLL, LUL, LLL)
  • Cough type and description; sputum amount, color, and consistency
  • Oxygen device, delivery method, flow rate, SpO₂, and respiratory rate
  • Patient position, distress signs, and breathing interventions provided
Covers cardiovascular status. Typical fields include:
  • Heart rate, rhythm, and auscultation findings (S1, S2, murmur, rub, gallop)
  • Capillary refill time; edema severity (1+–4+) and location
  • Skin color, perfusion, and temperature; JVD
  • Cardiac monitor rhythm or telemetry
  • Chest pain assessment (type, radiation, severity 0–10)
  • Peripheral pulses (radial, dorsalis pedis, posterior tibial) and vascular access (central line, peripheral IV)
Documents gastrointestinal status. Typical fields include:
  • Abdomen condition (soft, distended, firm, tender), bowel sounds, and tenderness
  • Nausea or vomiting; diet type and tolerance
  • Last bowel movement; stool consistency and color; flatus status and bowel regimen
  • Ostomy status; NG or GI tube
  • GI symptoms (bloating, cramping, constipation, diarrhea) and a free-text GI narrative
Captures genitourinary findings. Typical fields include:
  • Urine output, voiding status, frequency, urgency, and dysuria (pain quality and intensity)
  • Urine color, clarity, and odor; incontinence status
  • Catheter presence and care; bladder distention
  • GU pain, discomfort, and symptoms (hesitancy, retention, hematuria)
  • Intake and output monitoring and a free-text GU narrative
Musculoskeletal assessment template. Follows the same schema-driven pattern as other supported types. Typical coverage includes range of motion, strength, gait, mobility aids, and joint assessment. Refer to the template schema from the Info API for field-level detail.
Intake and output tracking for fluid balance monitoring. Typical fields include:
  • Fluid intake (oral, IV, tube feeding)
  • Output measurements (urine, drainage, emesis)
  • Totals and trends your workflow uses for I/O documentation
These templates streamline the process of collecting information from the patient by providing a predefined set of questions and answers.
