The Critical Care and Medicine Databasea uses different date and time formats throughout as work best for their context. The dates are stored internally in a format-independent way, so we can change this to suit us.

  • yy-mon-dd HH:mm (eg. 16-04-25 17:03) is used sometimes to save space, e.g. admit and discharge display on top of patient viewer
  • yyyy-month-dd (1960-Jan-01) is used in some places, eg DOB, tmp date, in Patient viewer (any objections if I make it e.g. 1960-01-01 for consistency?)
  • yymonthdd HH:mm on patient list.
  • yyyy-mm-dd HH:mm (eg. 2016-04-25 17:03) is used in much of Category:2016 Time and Place changes
