IMMUNIZATIONS

Unknown Patient Immunization Status


MEDICATIONS

Patient prescribed oral medication QID PRN without precondition specified


Patient Prescribed Medication Every 4-6 Hours

  • Approved by: Task force 1/30/2014. Approved by SDWG on 2/6/2014.
  • CDA Implementation Guide where template(s) is(are) defined: C-CDA 1.1
  • CDA Implementation Guide where template(s) is(are) defined: C-CDA 2.0
  • Known bad example?: Valid example
  • Reference in full CDA Sample: Results Packaged in C-CDA Skeleton
  • Custodian: John D'Amore, jdamore@diameterhealth.com (GitHub: jddamore)
  • Validation location: NIST TTT Message Validator for VDT Ambulatory validated February 12, 2014
  • Keywords: Dose frequency, pre-coordinated medication
  • Comments: This is an example of a medication (Sudafed) which to be administered every 4-6 hours, a common dosing pattern. Representing the range of potential of hours is done through a low and high child element of the period within effectiveTime of PIVL_TS.


Patient Prescribed Oral Antibiotic with Dosing Regimen that Varies Over Prescription Course (Loading or Tapered)

  • Approved by: Task force on 3/6. Approved by SDWG on 4/10/2014.
  • CDA Implementation Guide where template(s) is(are) defined: C-CDA 1.1
  • CDA Implementation Guide where template(s) is(are) defined: C-CDA 2.0
  • Known bad example?: Valid example
  • Reference in full CDA Sample: Results Packaged in C-CDA Skeleton
  • Custodian: John D'Amore, jdamore@diameterhealth.com (GitHub: jddamore)
  • Validation location: NIST TTT Message Validator for VDT Ambulatory validated February 12, 2014
  • Keywords: Pre-coordinated medication code, dose frequency, tapered dose, loading dose
  • Comments: This is an example of a common pattern for antibiotic administration which is complex (double dose on day 1, commonly known as Z-PAK). There was SDWG discussion of an appropriate means to structure this information in February 2014. This dosing regimen may be characterized as a loading dose, but a similar approach could be used for a tapered dose as well.


Patient prescribed basal insulin administered at bedtime


Single Administration of Medication (at Single Point in Time)

    • Approved by: Task force on 3/13. Approved by SDWG on 4/10/2014.
  • CDA Implementation Guide where template(s) is(are) defined: C-CDA 1.1

  • Custodian: John D'Amore, jdamore@diameterhealth.com (GitHub: jddamore)
  • Validation location: This timing information will not currently validate since it does not use IVL_TS type.
  • Keywords: Pre-coordinated medication code, single administration, point in time
  • Comments: This is an example of two baby aspirin being administered at a single point in time. At the January 2014 San Antonio meeting of HL7, this approach was decided as appropriate for medication timing of a point in time. This will not currently validate, but C-CDA 1.1 DSTU 423 states that changes will be made to accommodate value within time effectiveTime element (not just low/high children).


No Medications

  • Approved by: Task force on 3/13. Approved by SDWG on 4/10/2014.
  • CDA Implementation Guide where template(s) is(are) defined: C-CDA 1.1

SOCIAL HISTORY (SMOKING)

Unknown Smoking Status

  • Approved by: Not yet approved
  • CDA Implementation Guide where template(s) is(are) defined: C-CDA 1.1
    • TemplateId(s) illustrated: Social History Section (2.16.840.1.113883.10.20.22.2.17) Smoking Status (2.16.840.1.113883.10.20.22.4.78)
    • Unknown Smoking Status
  • C-CDA 2.0 Example: none yet created
  • Known bad example?: Valid example.
  • Reference to full CDA sample: Social History (Smoking Status)in skeleton CCD
  • Custodian: John D'Amore jdamore@diameterhealth.com (GitHub: jddamore)
  • Validation location: NIST TTT VDT Ambulatory validated June 11, 2014
  • Comments: This is an example of unknown smoking status. There is a major variation in how no information is managed for smoking status. C-CDA 1.1 explicitly guides to not utilize a nullFlavor for this information. Instead a SNOMED code should be used as demonstrated in the example. A best practice to avoid confusion is for each social history section to only include a single smoking status.


Former Smoker in Smoking Status

  • Approved by: Not yet approved
  • CDA Implementation Guide where template(s) is(are) defined: C-CDA 1.1
    • TemplateId(s) illustrated: Social History Section (2.16.840.1.113883.10.20.22.2.17) Smoking Status (2.16.840.1.113883.10.20.22.4.78)

  • Known bad example?: Valid example.
  • Reference to full CDA sample: Social History (Smoking Status)in skeleton CCD
  • Custodian: John D'Amore jdamore@diameterhealth.com (GitHub: jddamore)
  • Validation location: NIST TTT VDT Ambulatory validated June 11, 2014
  • Comments: This is an example of a former smoker in smoking status. There is a variation in how effectiveTime/high is used since this represents when the patient stopped smoking, not when they stopped being a former smoker. C-CDA 1.1 explicitly guides to this usage of effectiveTime. A best practice to avoid confusion is for each social history section to only include a single smoking status.


Current Smoker in Smoking Status

  • Approved by: Not yet approved
  • CDA Implementation Guide where template(s) is(are) defined: C-CDA 1.1
    • TemplateId(s) illustrated: Social History Section (2.16.840.1.113883.10.20.22.2.17) Smoking Status (2.16.840.1.113883.10.20.22.4.78)

  • Custodian: John D'Amore jdamore@diameterhealth.com (GitHub: jddamore)
  • Validation location: NIST TTT VDT Ambulatory validated June 11, 2014
  • Comments: This is an example of current smoking status. This example also includes a coordinating social history observation to convey the amount of smoking using a SNOMED code. This SNOMED code in the accompanying observation is not acceptable since smoking status, which is constrained by HL7 and Meaningful Use value set requirements. A best practice to avoid confusion is for each social history section to only include a single smoking status.

DRAFT MATERIAL - PLEASE DON'T DELETE

How to Setup an XML example from GitHub

  • Sign up for GitHub account. It's free and quick
  • Once you've got an account, you will be able to fork repositories and comment on examples through the website
  • To post and manage examples, you will likely want to install a graphical user interface for GitHub. Here's where you can download: For Windows or For Mac
  • Once you've got the application installed, there are a few steps:
    • Click the "create" button to make a repository where you would like to upload/update to GitHub
    • Once you've created, the repository will exist online and on your local machine
    • On your local machine, place in new or revised files in the local folder (this will generally be under Documents/GitHub). It's good practice to include a text file named README.md, which appears online when people browse your repository. This is a good place to explain what you're working on.
    • Once you've made the edits (or new files) you want to post to GitHub, "commit" the sample entering a description and then hit the "sync" button to upload
    • At this point the changes and new files are posted online publicly
  • For an example GitHub repository with C-CDA samples, check out this one from Children's Hospital Boston
