Scope of coverage
DEFINITION (OBSERVATION):
The observation resource covers simple as well as complex assertions and measurements made about a patient, specimen, device or other subject.
Fundamentally, observations can be as simple as name/value pair assertions with little structure, as well as observations nested within other observations to represent a rich and complex observation, although there are several resources such as DiagnosticReport to manage and represent aggregation patterns for observations. Expected uses for this resource include:
- Vital signs: temperature, blood pressure, respiration rate
- Laboratory Data and other Diagnostic Measures
- Measurements emitted by Devices
- Clinical assessments such as APGAR
- Personal characteristics: height, weight, eye-color
- Diagnoses (Note: track-able conditions, allergies, adverse reactions and more complex structures are handled elsewhere)
- Social history: tobacco use, family supports, cognitive status
- Core characteristics: pregnancy status, death assertion
RIM scope
- ACT: Observation (ClassCode=OBS and descendants)
- ACT: Observation (Code=ObservationType)
Resource appropriateness
Observations are a central element in healthcare, used to support diagnosis, monitor progress, determine baselines and patterns and even capture demographic characteristics.
Expected implementations
Required for CCDA. Referenced as part of DiagnosticReport.
Content sources
- HL7 v3 Laboratory Standard - Normative
- HL7 v2.x

Timelines
- Vote by WG (Ready for ballot): July 2013
- Ballot: September 2013
gForge Users
- Lorraine Constable
- Patrick Loyd
Issues
- Need to explicitly define the difference between this and: Alert, AllergyIntolerance, AdverseReaction, Condition, DeviceObservation, OperationOutcome and Questionaire
- Need the RIM scope to exclude the content for Alert, AllergyIntolerance, etc.
- Should be looking at OpenEHR too. National projects?
- Need to provide a description for all "related" resources - related how?
- Need to add example scenarios
