• Key Concepts: 
  Upper threshold critical zone is a feature of the IS-HMED Clinical System, which is a component of the SAP healthcare software suite. It is used to set an upper limit for the number of patients that can be admitted to a hospital or clinic. This upper limit is determined by the hospital or clinic's capacity and is used to ensure that the facility does not become overcrowded. 
  
  How to use it: 
  The upper threshold critical zone can be set by the hospital or clinic's administrator. The administrator can set the upper limit based on the facility's capacity and other factors such as patient demand. Once the upper limit is set, it will be used to determine when the facility has reached its maximum capacity and will no longer accept new patients. 
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  It is important to set an appropriate upper limit for the upper threshold critical zone. If the limit is too low, it may lead to overcrowding and a decrease in patient care quality. On the other hand, if the limit is too high, it may lead to underutilization of resources and a decrease in efficiency.
