1.0.0 Alpha - First release of the Ambulance Data Set FHIR bundle specification.

  • 18-04-2023

  • Corrected ADS62 to be 0..*

  • 29-11-2022

  • Remove ADS14 from mapping table & example

  • 23-11-2022

  • Remove ADS76 from mapping table & example

  • 26-10-2022

  • Remove ADS22 Removed ADS from mapping table & examples

  • 19-10-2022

  • Correct ADS101 mapping data type Corrected ADS101 mapping data type to be valueString from valueCoding to match example.

  • 30-08-2022

  • Temporary SNOMED codes added where required - format is 999999999 followed by data item identifier and hierarchial order e.g. in ADS 75 the first temporary SNOMED code would be '9999999997501'. The FHIR spec doesn't document SNOMED concepts, so no change to the FHIR spec.

  • ADS57 Introduced a new Extension to hold gender identity (http://hl7.org/fhir/StructureDefinition/patient-genderIdentity). This references the HL7 Extension rather than re-create it for this Guide. The bound ValueSet has been changed to the one used by the NHS Data Dictionary & Ambulance DataSet. The bound valueSet is https://fhir.nhs.uk/ValueSet/Ambulance-GenderIdentity, referencing the CodeSystem https://fhir.nhs.uk/CodeSystem/Ambulance-GenderIdentity. Conformance notes on Profile UKCore-Patient updated. Example updated.

  • ADS-58 Change values for Ethnic Category. The values in the Ambulance Data Set match those used in the UKCore to represent ethnicity in England https://fhir.hl7.org.uk/CodeSystem/UKCore-EthnicCategoryEngland. In the guidance on UKCore Patient Profile UKCore-Patient and the example, the CodeSystem https://fhir.hl7.org.uk/CodeSystem/UKCore-EthnicCategory has been changed to https://fhir.hl7.org.uk/CodeSystem/UKCore-EthnicCategoryEngland. Example updated.

  • ADS64 Amended values of Pregnancy Status in line with version 1.6. Note that value "03" has changed meaning from "Not asked/collected" to "Possible pregnancy".

  • ADS73 ADS73 (Comorbidity) removed from the specification

  • ADS74 & ADS79A - typo addressed in there being two CHIEF 2323 codes - corrected in default sort levels. As the FHIR spec doesn't detail SNOMED codes, no change to this FHIR spec.

  • ADS77 update to description in Mapping Table Data Mapping. There is no further change, as the FHIR spec doesn't document SNOMED concepts

  • ADS79B & ADS79C – column "F" title corrected to cover MTS Telephone Triage mapping (where used). Example updated with codes from the spreadsheet. Note that the SNOMED codes used are not mapped to a FHIR CodeSystem

  • ADS80 – data item list revised down to the NEWS2 score to support data flow. Deleted all the supporting scores from the example, and amended the mapping table text, as just the overall NEWS2 score is needed

  • ADS81 – data rows relating to oxygen and air recordings removed as no longer required. No change to specification (as these extra data items never added to spec)

  • ADS83 Amended existing values & added new values for Clinical Triage Tool. Codes are now all "numbers" (01, 02 etc.) CodeSystem Ambulance-ClinicalTriageTool

  • ADS99, ADS100 and ADS101 made optional fields following general feedback. There's no enmforcement in the FHIR spec - so no changes needed.

  • Bundle.meta.tag version updated code to "epr-Version-1.6" & display to "ADS FHIR Bundle - EPR items (version 1.6)"

    Other Changes

  • The spec now conforms to the latest version of the UK Core

  • The Profile and Extension pages now only show a "Snapshot" view

  • This guide includes the implementation guidance previously developed for the data items for MVP and Bundle 1 development phases - see Data Mapping

Note:

Example representations of FHIR resources have been removed from this guide. Clarification on the representation of internal resource referencing in the ADS FHIR Bundle is provided in How To Construct The ADS FHIR Bundle.
