Patient - Taccuino personale dell'assistito - Definitions - HL7 FHIR Implementation Guide Taccuino Personale dell'Assistito v0.2.0

Is Modifier false

Summary true

4. Patient.meta

Definition

The metadata about the resource. This is content that is maintained by the infrastructure. Changes to the content might not always be associated with version changes to the resource.

Short Metadata about the resource

Control 0..1

Meta

Is Modifier false

Summary true

Invariants ele-1: All FHIR elements must have a @value or children (hasValue() or (children().count() > id.count()))

6. Patient.implicitRules

Definition

A reference to a set of rules that were followed when the resource was constructed, and which must be understood when processing the content. Often, this is a reference to an implementation guide that defines the special rules along with other profiles etc.

Short A set of rules under which this content was created

Comments

Asserting this rule set restricts the content to be only understood by a limited set of trading partners. This inherently limits the usefulness of the data in the long term. However, the existing health eco-system is highly fractured, and not yet ready to define, collect, and exchange data in a generally computable sense. Wherever possible, implementers and/or specification writers should avoid using this element. Often, when used, the URL is a reference to an implementation guide that defines these special rules as part of it's narrative along with other profiles, value sets, etc.

Control 0..1

Is Modifier true because This element is labeled as a modifier because the implicit rules may provide additional knowledge about the resource that modifies it's meaning or interpretation

Primitive Value This primitive element may be present, or absent, or replaced by an extension

Summary true

Invariants ele-1: All FHIR elements must have a @value or children (hasValue() or (children().count() > id.count()))

8. Patient.language

Definition

The base language in which the resource is written.

Short Language of the resource content

Comments

Language is provided to support indexing and accessibility (typically, services such as text to speech use the language tag). The html language tag in the narrative applies to the narrative. The language tag on the resource may be used to specify the language of other presentations generated from the data in the resource. Not all the content has to be in the base language. The Resource.language should not be assumed to apply to the narrative automatically. If a language is specified, it should it also be specified on the div element in the html (see rules in HTML5 for information about the relationship between xml:lang and the html lang attribute).

Control 0..1

The codes SHOULD be taken from CommonLanguages
(preferred to http://hl7.org/fhir/ValueSet/languages|4.0.1)

A human language.

Additional Bindings

Purpose

Is Modifier false

Primitive Value This primitive element may be present, or absent, or replaced by an extension

Summary false

Invariants ele-1: All FHIR elements must have a @value or children (hasValue() or (children().count() > id.count()))

10. Patient.text

Definition

A human-readable narrative that contains a summary of the resource and can be used to represent the content of the resource to a human. The narrative need not encode all the structured data, but is required to contain sufficient detail to make it "clinically safe" for a human to just read the narrative. Resource definitions may define what content should be represented in the narrative to ensure clinical safety.

Short Text summary of the resource, for human interpretation

Comments

Contained resources do not have narrative. Resources that are not contained SHOULD have a narrative. In some cases, a resource may only have text with little or no additional discrete data (as long as all minOccurs=1 elements are satisfied). This may be necessary for data from legacy systems where information is captured as a "text blob" or where text is additionally entered raw or narrated and encoded information is added later.

Control 0..1

Narrative

Is Modifier false

Summary false

Alternate Names narrative, html, xhtml, display

Invariants ele-1: All FHIR elements must have a @value or children (hasValue() or (children().count() > id.count()))

12. Patient.contained

Definition

These resources do not have an independent existence apart from the resource that contains them - they cannot be identified independently, and nor can they have their own independent transaction scope.

Short Contained, inline Resources

Comments

This should never be done when the content can be identified properly, as once identification is lost, it is extremely difficult (and context dependent) to restore it again. Contained resources may have profiles and tags In their meta elements, but SHALL NOT have security labels.

Control 0..*

Resource

Is Modifier false

Summary false

Alternate Names inline resources, anonymous resources, contained resources

14. Patient.extension

38. Patient.modifierExtension

Definition

May be used to represent additional information that is not part of the basic definition of the resource and that modifies the understanding of the element that contains it and/or the understanding of the containing element's descendants. Usually modifier elements provide negation or qualification. To make the use of extensions safe and manageable, there is a strict set of governance applied to the definition and use of extensions. Though any implementer is allowed to define an extension, there is a set of requirements that SHALL be met as part of the definition of the extension. Applications processing a resource are required to check for modifier extensions.

Modifier extensions SHALL NOT change the meaning of any elements on Resource or DomainResource (including cannot change the meaning of modifierExtension itself).

Short Extensions that cannot be ignored

Comments

There can be no stigma associated with the use of extensions by any application, project, or standard - regardless of the institution or jurisdiction that uses or defines the extensions. The use of extensions is what allows the FHIR specification to retain a core level of simplicity for everyone.

Control 0..*

Is Modifier true because Modifier extensions are expected to modify the meaning or interpretation of the resource that contains them

Summary false

Requirements

Modifier extensions allow for extensions that cannot be safely ignored to be clearly distinguished from the vast majority of extensions which can be safely ignored. This promotes interoperability by eliminating the need for implementers to prohibit the presence of extensions. For further information, see the definition of modifier extensions.

Applications can assume that an identifier is permanent unless it explicitly says that it is temporary.

Control 0..1

The codes SHALL be taken from IdentifierUse
(required to http://hl7.org/fhir/ValueSet/identifier-use|4.0.1)

Identifies the purpose for this identifier, if known .

Is Modifier true because This is labeled as "Is Modifier" because applications should not mistake a temporary id for a permanent one.

Primitive Value This primitive element may be present, or absent, or replaced by an extension

Summary true

Requirements

Allows the appropriate identifier for a particular context of use to be selected from among a set of identifiers.

Invariants ele-1: All FHIR elements must have a @value or children (hasValue() or (children().count() > id.count()))

50. Patient.identifier.type

Definition

A coded type for the identifier that can be used to determine which identifier to use for a specific purpose.

Short Description of identifier

Comments

This element deals only with general categories of identifiers. It SHOULD not be used for codes that correspond 1..1 with the Identifier.system. Some identifiers may fall into multiple categories due to common usage. Where the system is known, a type is unnecessary because the type is always part of the system definition. However systems often need to handle identifiers where the system is not known. There is not a 1:1 relationship between type and system, since many different systems have the same type.

Control 0..1

Binding Unless not suitable, these codes SHALL be taken from Tipo identificatore
(extensible to http://hl7.it/fhir/itcore/ValueSet/vs-tipoIdentificatore)

Is Modifier false

Primitive Value This primitive element may be present, or absent, or replaced by an extension

Summary true

Requirements

There are many sets of identifiers. To perform matching of two identifiers, we need to know what set we're dealing with. The system identifies a particular set of unique identifiers.

Example General: http://www.acme.com/identifiers/patient

Invariants ele-1: All FHIR elements must have a @value or children (hasValue() or (children().count() > id.count()))

54. Patient.identifier.value

Definition

Identifictivo del paziente.

Short ID del paziente (e.g. Codice Fiscale).

Comments

If the value is a full URI, then the system SHALL be urn:ietf:rfc:3986. The value's primary purpose is computational mapping. As a result, it may be normalized for comparison purposes (e.g. removing non-significant whitespace, dashes, etc.) A value formatted for human display can be conveyed using the Rendered Value extension. Identifier.value is to be treated as case sensitive unless knowledge of the Identifier.system allows the processer to be confident that non-case-sensitive processing is safe.

Definition

Administrative Gender - the gender that the patient is considered to have for administration and record keeping purposes.

Short male | female | other | unknown

Comments

The gender might not match the biological sex as determined by genetics or the individual's preferred identification. Note that for both humans and particularly animals, there are other legitimate possibilities than male and female, though the vast majority of systems and contexts only support male and female. Systems providing decision support or enforcing business rules should ideally do this on the basis of Observations dealing with the specific sex or gender aspect of interest (anatomical, chromosomal, social, etc.) However, because these observations are infrequently recorded, defaulting to the administrative gender is common practice. Where such defaulting occurs, rule enforcement should allow for the variation between administrative and biological, chromosomal and other gender aspects. For example, an alert about a hysterectomy on a male should be handled as a warning or overridable error, not a "hard" error. See the Patient Gender and Sex section for additional information about communicating patient gender and sex.

226. Patient.contact.modifierExtension

Definition

May be used to represent additional information that is not part of the basic definition of the element and that modifies the understanding of the element in which it is contained and/or the understanding of the containing element's descendants. Usually modifier elements provide negation or qualification. To make the use of extensions safe and manageable, there is a strict set of governance applied to the definition and use of extensions. Though any implementer can define an extension, there is a set of requirements that SHALL be met as part of the definition of the extension. Applications processing a resource are required to check for modifier extensions.

Modifier extensions SHALL NOT change the meaning of any elements on Resource or DomainResource (including cannot change the meaning of modifierExtension itself).

Short Extensions that cannot be ignored even if unrecognized

Comments

If no language is specified, this implies that the default local language is spoken. If you need to convey proficiency for multiple modes, then you need multiple Patient.Communication associations. For animals, language is not a relevant field, and should be absent from the instance. If the Patient does not speak the default local language, then the Interpreter Required Standard can be used to explicitly declare that an interpreter is required.

Control 0..*

BackboneElement

Is Modifier false

Summary false

Requirements

If a patient does not speak the local language, interpreters may be required, so languages spoken and proficiency are important things to keep track of both for patient and other persons of interest.

Short The language which can be used to communicate with the patient about his or her health

Comments

The structure aa-BB with this exact casing is one the most widely used notations for locale. However not all systems actually code this but instead have it as free text. Hence CodeableConcept instead of code as the data type.

Control 1..1

(preferred to http://hl7.org/fhir/ValueSet/languages|4.0.1)

A human language.

Additional Bindings

254. Patient.generalPractitioner

Definition

Patient's nominated care provider.

Short Principale fornitore di cure del paziente.

Comments

This may be the primary care provider (in a GP context), or it may be a patient nominated care manager in a community/disability setting, or even organization that will provide people to perform the care provider roles. It is not to be used to record Care Teams, these should be in a CareTeam resource that may be linked to the CarePlan or EpisodeOfCare resources. Multiple GPs may be recorded against the patient for various reasons, such as a student that has his home GP listed along with the GP at university during the school semesters, or a "fly-in/fly-out" worker that has the onsite GP also included with his home GP to remain aware of medical issues.
