Hi there -

I am translating a medical report where the headings at the top read as follows:

SITE# 3333 PAT# B12345
EVENT ID: BLEED PAGE#: 5

Would anyone be able to tell me what PAT might stand for?

Thanks so much!

Overview - Focused on the practice
PegasusEMR has a unique heritage in the medical software industry. It was designed by a team of Physicians that, along with a team of Process Engineers, produced an Electronic Medical Record (EMR) software application that has superior performance characteristics and an
easy to use interface.

PegasusEMR is not an appendage of a large hospital-based system. Those systems focus most of their efforts on managing the supply chain of the hospital. Our solution was built from the ground up to help the Physician improve patient care, patient safety and increase productivity.

How it works
PegasusEMR utilizes several software modules to improve manual processes in a repetitive, clinical work environment. It is an integrated solution that provides more information and improvements faster and more accurately than competitive products.
