CDA R2 Extensions

From HL7Wiki
Jump to navigation Jump to search

Purpose

This page documents extensions to CDA R2 which have been created for use in CDA Release 2.0 Implementation Guides.

SDTC Extensions

The namespace for all Structured Documents Workgroup extensions in urn:hl7-org:sdtc. This namespace was used because at the time these extensions were created, the name of the Structured Documents Work Group was the Structured Documents Technical Committee. Approval of an extension to appear in the urn:hl7-org:sdtc namespace by the Structured Documents workgroup does not give the extension any status other than being eligible to appear in this list and that namespace. Some extensions have been published in Normative or Informative documents, and so have standing as being part of standard, DSTU or HL7 informative specification in the context of that specification.

Extensions created by the Structured Documents workgroup follow certain rules established during the creation of the HL7 CCD Implementation guide.

An extension is a collection of element or attribute declarations and rules for their application to the CDA Release 2.0.

  • The namespace for extensions created by the HL7 Structured Documents Working Group (formerly Structured Documents Technical Committee) shall be urn:hl7-org:sdtc. Note: Some implementation guides have incorrectly reported the namespace as urn:hl7-org:stdc.
  • All extensions are optional. An extension may be used, but need not be.
  • Extension element names shall be derived from attributes defined in the RIM.
  • Each extension element shall use the same HL7 vocabularies and data types as used by CDA Release 2.0.
  • Each extension element shall use the same conventions for order and naming as is used by the current HL7 tooling.
  • An extension element shall appear in the XML where the expected RIM element of the same name would have appeared had that element not been otherwise constrained from appearing in the CDA XML schema.

The following extensions have been approved by the HL7 Structured Documents Workgroup. The specification first defining the extension appear in bold. NOTE: While specifications defining the extension may come from organizations other than the HL7 Structured Documents Working Group, they were discussed with, and "approved" by the working group as being eligible to appear in the stdc namespace.

If you develop a CDA R2.0 Implementation Guide and use extensions from the sdtc namespace, you should register your use of the extension by notifying a SDWG Co-Chair or report your usage on the SDWG listServe so that this index can be kept up to date.

Extensions approved for the sdtc namespace are periodically implemented in a W3C Schema file which is versioned (by date) and published on the HL7 SDWG GForge site available here:

This document summarizes the process used to publish a new CDA Schema file with the sdtc extensions.

sdtc:admissionReferralSourceCode This element is a coded concept that represents the type of referral. Its RIM source class is PatientEncounter.

sdtc:asPatientRelationship Each participant role other than an informant/relatedEntity may have zero or more relationship roles with the patient. Each of these roles can be expressed with an asPatientRelationship element which further describes the type of role using a code element. The informant/relatedEntity participant role already supports specification of the relationship between the informant and the patient via the RelatedEntity classCode, and therefore should not include this extension.(CCD)

sdtc:id This id extension is used to record the subject's medical record number or other id.

The id extension in the family history organizer on the related subject allows for unique identification of the family member(s). (CCDA) CDA Release 2.0 does not provide a mechanism to determine when two participants in different roles are in fact the same entity (i.e., an entity can be a person, organization or device). A CDA Document identifies each participant through the application of a role identifier. This identifier can be used to trace the participation of an entity in a given role, but cannot necessarily be used to determine that two entities are the same. While more role identities could be provided whose intended use is to unify the entities, this is better modeled through the use of an entity identifier. Therefore, to facilitate this capability, this guide defines an extension to CDA Release 2.0 that allows the person or organization playing the role to be uniquely identified, by the inclusion of an identifier on the entity.

sdtc:inFulfillmentOf1 This is an actRelationship called inFulfillmentOf1 that represents the Fulfills General Relationship Operator in QDM 4.1.x in QDM-Base QRDA Category 1, R3 (uses FLFS actRelationship type which is not an allowed actRelationship (entryRelationship) type in CDA). Also create ActReference to contain the pointer to already existing class.

Add to:

Extension will be a pointer (reference) to an already existing order or recommendation. The id of the existing order or recommendation will be used to allow pointing to the already existing data without repeating it in the relationship (ActReference). InFulfillmentOf1 is the relationship between the act that is fulfilling the order/recommendation and that order/recommendation.

sdtc:negationInd The Quality Measures need to be able to state that something did not happen and the reason why that thing did not happen. This is accomplished by setting negationInd="true" and stating the reason (rationale) in a contained Reason template. This is needed for supply and encounters, however CDA has constrained the negationInd out of supply and encounter. (i.e. this device was not supplied because of reason x or this encounter did not happen because of reason y). On 4/23/3015 this proposal was withdrawn. Despite the argument for a consistent approach for negation on all act classes and acknowledgement of the issues unique to negation for observation acts, the proposal was withdrawn based on the requirement in the the CDA R2 standard, chapter 1.4 CDA Extensibility, "These extensions should not change the meaning of any of the standard data items, and receivers must be able to safely ignore these elements. Document recipients must be able to faithfully render the CDA document while ignoring extensions."

The RIM states, that priorityNumber is an integer specifying the relative preference for considering this relationship before other like-typed relationships having the same source Act. Relationships with lower priorityNumber values are considered before and above those with higher values.

lab:statusCode The CDA extension: lab:statusCode adds the ability to represent a status code on the documentationOf/ServiceEvent element.

The Laboratory Report Content Module can express both final and non-final reports. To distinguish between the two, the statusCode element has been added to the documentationOf/serviceEvent element. A non-final report is a report documenting a serviceEvent, which is in the status "active".
This sub-element serviceEvent/statusCode is optional. When it is not present the serviceEvent is assumed to be in the status "completed".

nehta:desc A text description of the product. While the data type ED would allow for a full product monograph to be carried in this attribute, this practice is to be avoided, because product monograph document structures (Structured Product Labeling) should be used instead for such documents. The description attribute is mainly to be used for brief descriptions which users of product catalogs can use to quickly distinguish this product from other similar products in a list of products.
