CDA for Healthcare Acquired Infectious Disease Reporting

Wiki page supporting collaborative work on CDA for reporting of Healthcare Associated Infectious disease.

Here is the initial set of forms targeted for this project:

• Surgical Site Infection (SSI) Form

• Denominator for Procedure Form

• Primary Bloodstream Infection (BSI) Form

• Denominator for ICU, Other locations (not NICU or SCA) Form

The following forms will also need to be handled at a later date:

• Urinary Tract Infection (UTI) Form

• Pneumonia (PNEU) Form

• Denominators for Specialty Care Area (SCA)

• Denominators for Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU)

Support files for the Pilot: HAI-pilot-materials.zip

Changes since first distribution:

• ICU-denom.xml The ICU sample file distributed with the pilot package was missing encompassingEncounter/effectiveTime, which is required by CDA.

• The HTML display transform file should be renamed hai-display.xsl. (This is the filename used in the xsl-stylesheet processing instruction at the top of the sample files.)

• The entry for a pathogen should not require that its @typeCode attribute have the value COMP. If the narrative block has been derived from the entries, the entry @typecode should be DRIV.

• The populate-narrative transform did not process the summary section in a denominator record correctly due to a typo in voc.xsl at line 31.

Please note that, for the pilot, the schematron and Validator require that any pathogen should have at least one drug-susceptibility test. If the pathogen is a fungal pathogen, you can ignore the warning. For the ballot, bacterial pathogens will be required to have at least one drug-susceptibility test, and fungal pathogens will not be required to.
