Project Summary
The intent of this project is to create and maintain one generic Detailed Clinical Model that defines the main concepts of using medical device related data safely and traceably in for patient care. This DCM is intended to be reused in other domains where devices play a role in assessment and treatment. In addition, several specific DCM will be developed for exemplar medical devices in order to iteratively test the generic model. Furthermore, the project will organize clinical content from and about medical devices in such a manner that it becomes reusable in different domain models, standards and technologies, thus supporting consistency of representation and semantic interoperability.

Project Scope
The intent of this project is to create and maintain one generic Detailed Clinical Model that defines the main concepts of using medical device related data safely and traceably for patient care. This DCM is intended to be reused in other domains where devices play a role in assessment and treatment.
In addition, several specific DCM will be developed for exemplar medical devices in order to iteratively test the generic model. Furthermore, the project will organize clinical content from and about medical devices in such a manner that it becomes reusable in different domain models, standards and technologies, thus supporting consistency of representation and semantic interoperability.
The overall purpose of a Detailed Clinical Model (DCM) is to enhance the semantic interoperability between different standards, systems and developments. This includes internal HL7 harmonization efforts. Patient Care WG is currently creating a top 10 of DCM which is part of HL7 project 320 on DCM. The DCM criteria and methodology is addressed by ISO NIWP 13972, approved July 2009, the methodology for HL7 Domain Analysis is documented in the HL7 Development Framework (HDF).
DCMs are created for a variety clinical domains. The core part of a DCM is the full data item specification and determination of relationships between data elements. In many types of DCM (in particular the Blood Pressure, Body Weight, O2 Saturation and others) medical device measurement are an integral component of the clinical data used by nurses and physicians.
The stakeholder requirements (use cases, mind maps) will be used by the facilitators to create models that use a formal notation (UML2) and may be published and balloted as Domain Analysis Models.
