Interoperabilidade

External identifier - FHIR will generate its own internal identifiers (probably URLs) which do not need to be explicitly managed by the resource. The identifier here is one that would be used by another non-FHIR system - for example an automated medication pump would provide a record each time it operated; an administration while the patient was off the ward might be made with a different system and entered after the event. Particularly important if these records have to be updated.

A protocol, guideline, orderset or other definition that was adhered to in whole or in part by this event.

References SHALL be a reference to an actual FHIR resource, and SHALL be resolveable (allowing for access control, temporary unavailability, etc). Resolution can be either by retrieval from the URL, or, where applicable by resource type, by treating an absolute reference as a canonical URL and looking it up in a local registry/repository.

A larger event of which this particular event is a component or step.

Will generally be set to show that the administration has been completed. For some long running administrations such as infusions it is possible for an administration to be started but not completed or it may be paused while some other process is under way.

This element is labeled as a modifier because the status contains codes that mark the resource as not currently valid.

Indicates the type of medication administration and where the medication is expected to be consumed or administered.

Not all terminology uses fit this general pattern. In some cases, models should not use CodeableConcept and use Coding directly and provide their own structure for managing text, codings, translations and the relationship between elements and pre- and post-coordination.

The person or animal or group receiving the medication.

The visit, admission or other contact between patient and health care provider the medication administration was performed as part of.

Set this to true if the record is saying that the medication was NOT administered.

This element is labeled as a modifier because it indicates that a administration didn't happen.

If this is missing, then the medication was administered

A code indicating why the administration was not performed.

Not all terminology uses fit this general pattern. In some cases, models should not use CodeableConcept and use Coding directly and provide their own structure for managing text, codings, translations and the relationship between elements and pre- and post-coordination.

A code indicating why the medication was given.

Condition or observation that supports why the medication was administered.

This is a reference to a condition that is the reason for the medication request. If only a code exists, use reasonCode.

The original request, instruction or authority to perform the administration.

The device used in administering the medication to the patient. For example, a particular infusion pump.

Extra information about the medication administration that is not conveyed by the other attributes.

For systems that do not have structured annotations, they can simply communicate a single annotation with no author or time. This element may need to be included in narrative because of the potential for modifying information. Annotations SHOULD NOT be used to communicate "modifying" information that could be computable. (This is a SHOULD because enforcing user behavior is nearly impossible).

Free text dosage can be used for cases where the dosage administered is too complex to code. When coded dosage is present, the free text dosage may still be present for display to humans.

The dosage instructions should reflect the dosage of the medication that was administered.

Note that FHIR strings may not exceed 1MB in size

A coded specification of the anatomic site where the medication first entered the body. For example, "left arm".

If the use case requires attributes from the BodySite resource (e.g. to identify and track separately) then use the standard extension body-site-instance. May be a summary code, or a reference to a very precise definition of the location, or both.

A code specifying the route or physiological path of administration of a therapeutic agent into or onto the patient. For example, topical, intravenous, etc.

Not all terminology uses fit this general pattern. In some cases, models should not use CodeableConcept and use Coding directly and provide their own structure for managing text, codings, translations and the relationship between elements and pre- and post-coordination.

A coded value indicating the method by which the medication is intended to be or was introduced into or on the body. This attribute will most often NOT be populated. It is most commonly used for injections. For example, Slow Push, Deep IV.

One of the reasons this attribute is not used often, is that the method is often pre-coordinated with the route and/or form of administration. This means the codes used in route or form may pre-coordinate the method in the route code or the form code. The implementation decision about what coding system to use for route or form code will determine how frequently the method code will be populated e.g. if route or form code pre-coordinate method code, then this attribute will not be populated often; if there is no pre-coordination then method code may be used frequently.

The amount of the medication given at one administration event. Use this value when the administration is essentially an instantaneous event such as a swallowing a tablet or giving an injection.

If the administration is not instantaneous (rate is present), this can be specified to convey the total amount administered over period of time of a single administration.

A summary of the events of interest that have occurred, such as when the administration was verified.

This may not include provenances for all versions of the request – only those deemed “relevant” or important. This SHALL NOT include the Provenance associated with this current version of the resource. (If that provenance is deemed to be a “relevant” change, it will need to be added as part of a later update. Until then, it can be queried directly as the Provenance that points to this version using _revinclude All Provenances should have some historical version of this Request as their subject.
