# Remove a patient vital threshold

Canonical page: https://docs.ovok.com/api/slim/threshold/patient/remove-a-patient-vital-threshold

`DELETE /v1/slim/threshold/patient/{patientId}/vitals/{code}`

Removes one resident's threshold for a single vital code in Signals, so that code no longer alerts for the resident.

**Auth:** Bearer token. The caller must be a practitioner, an admin, a super admin, or hold the "System Owner" access policy. The access policy must grant `Goal:update` (an admin or super admin who holds no access policy skips this check).
**Scope:** The resident must be in the caller's project (from the token) or one of its sub-projects; otherwise 404.

## Behaviour

- Answers 204 with no body once Signals confirms the removal. A 502 means Signals did not confirm; the call is safe to repeat.
- Codes the threshold routes own (for example SpO₂ and pulse rate) are refused with 400.
- `code` must be 1 to 64 characters from letters, digits, `.`, `_` and `-`.
