Im new to c# and im building a windows form for the Modified early warning scoring system (MEWS) which is used in hospitals to monitor a patients health. I have built a GUI for it, but im not sure what code to put in to get it to work. Im using timers to move coloured labels across the screen to represent a patient vital signs. So for example the Respiration rate ive put in is

MIDL

tmrResps.Enabled = true; tmrResps.Interval = 2000;

Ive but a button in which starts the timers and this works fine. But what I want to do next is show a score based on the output of that vital sign timer. I want to use buttons which when pressed will display the score in a text box. What I want to know is what code do i use to make this work?

Hello Max,

Create a global field called - ArrayList alCountHeartRate = new ArrayList();

with each heart rate - you need to use Random() to break the constant 2 second intervals per heart beat - so that it deviates in routine.
Meaning select a random value between 1 - 2000 for the timer's milliseconds.

With each Tick() event of your timer - add 1 entry to the Arraylist with the actual value of the timer elapsed value. (0-2000)

when the user clicks the button to display results.
Do a Average with the ArrayList content of values for the result.

Regards,
X

Stop with the global fields already... They are bad for the health of your applications.
