Issue

The LRI IG contains a Newborn profile but never defines the time period patient is considered a newborn

Recommendation

Add usage note to PID-7 Date/Time of Birth. Usage Note: The definition of "Newborn" for purposes of the LRI IG is for newborn screenings; the timeframe is up to 120 hours/5 days.

Rationale

Recommend as errata to the LRI IG

Discussion

Recommended Action Items

Resolution

  • 26-Mar-2013 - Motion to accept instead of the recommendation above the same language as being incorporated into LOI IG as errata:
    • Newborn – a human infant from the time of birth through the 28th day of life per Mosby's Medical Dictionary, 8th edition. © 2009, Elsevier, and the World Health Organization standardization for perinatal definitions.
    • Riki Merrick, Bob Yencha
    • Against: 0; Abstain: 0; In Favor: 12
