Description

< DESCRIPTION TO BE UPDATED >

Note for the readers
 
This template version represents the best representation of the original epSOS/EXPAND specifications in ART DECOR. However 
 
the original epSOS/EXPAND  specifications in Microsoft Word took the original IHE Templates and added constraints in written language. This actually is not best practice in electronic Template Design because the additional constraints are not assigned to the original IHE template but rather than that are text only constraints. In order to make everything computable new Template OIDs need to be assigned to the epSOS Templates in order to cover both, the original IHE Template Design and the additional constraints from epSOS in the text and represent them electronically.

Caveat: for the above mentioned reasons this version cannot be used  
for (automatic) testing/validation purposes. It shall be used however as basis for refinement (repository)

Note: there is a new version planned that covers all above and makes proper testing/validation possible 

epSOS ePrescription Template

The implementers must be familiar with the context of the project, as it shall not be repeated in this document. The implementers must also be familiar with the content of the following documents:

    • CDA Release 2.0 Normative Web Edition, May, 2005
    • HL7 Implementation Guide: CDA Release 2 – Continuity of Care Document (CCD), HL7, April 1, 2007.
    • Integrating the Healthcare Enterprise, Patient Care Coordination Technical Framework, Volume 1 and Volume 2- Revision 10, IHE International, November 4, 2014.
    • Integrating the Healthcare Enterprise, Patient Care Coordination CDA Content Modules- Trial Implementation Supplement, December 3, 2014.
    • HL7 Implementation Guide for CDA Release 2: History and Physical (H&P) Notes, HL7, July 16, 2008.
    • .

    It must also be noted that although the guidelines are based on the above documents, they contain specific developments particular to the project epSOS. This document can be used as a standalone to develop the syntax of the epSOS documents; however in order to achieve the full functionality of the epSOS Semantic Services, they are to be used within the context of the deliverable 3.9.1.

Unique identifier of this instance of the clinical document.

Following attributes can be used to uniquely identify the instance:

  • @root: A unique identifier that guarantees the global uniqueness of the instance identifier. The root alone may be the entire instance identifier. Required if @nullFlavor is not present.
  • @extension: An optional character string as a unique identifier within the scope of the identifier root.

The @root attribute must be a UID. The allowable formats and values and procedures of this data type are strictly controlled by HL7. At this time, user-assigned identifiers may be certain character representations of ISO Object Identifiers (OID) and DCE Universally Unique Identifiers (UUID).
  • UUIDs SHALL be represented in the form XXXXXXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXXXXXXXXXX, where each X is a character from the set [0-9a-zA-Z].
  • OIDs SHALL be represented in dotted decimal notation, where each decimal number is either 0, or starts with a nonzero digit. More formally, an OID SHALL be in the form [0-2](\.(0|[1-9][0-9]*))*.
