Über das Profil

Motivation

Dieses Profil wird in den Anwendungsfällen genutzt, um angefragte, verordnete oder dispensierte Arzneimittelinformationen zu übertragen.

Als Anfragender möchte ich angeben können, welche Medikation ich für einen Patienten anfragen möchte. Eine Einrichtung/ Person, die eine Verordnung anfragt nutzt dieses Profil, um strukturiert anzugeben, welche Medikation benötigt wird. Hierzu muss in ERPServiceRequestPrescriptionRequest.basedOn ein ERPServiceRequestMedicationRequest mit angegeben werden. Dieser enthält die medizinische Information, die der Verordnende benötigt, um ein entsprechendes Rezept auszustellen.

Analog kann der Verordnende angeben, welches Arzneimittel er verordnet hat, sowie ein abgebender LE welches Arzneimittel geliefert wird.

Die anzugebende Medication entspricht dabei den Medication Profilen aus dem eRezept Projekt der KBV.

Da die KBV_PR_ERP_Prescription Informationen voraussetzt, die u.U. im Moment der Anfrage nicht bekannt sind, wurde dieses Profil spezifiziert. Es lehnt sich an die Spezifikation der KBV_PR_ERP_Prescription an, ist aber offener, erlaubt also auch dass die fehlenden Informationen nicht angegeben werden müssen.

ERPServiceRequestMedicationRequest (MedicationRequest)	I		MedicationRequest	There are no (further) constraints on this element Element id MedicationRequest Short description Ordering of medication for patient or group Alternate names Prescription, Order Definition An order or request for both supply of the medication and the instructions for administration of the medication to a patient. The resource is called "MedicationRequest" rather than "MedicationPrescription" or "MedicationOrder" to generalize the use across inpatient and outpatient settings, including care plans, etc., and to harmonize with workflow patterns. Data type MedicationRequest Constraints dom-2: If the resource is contained in another resource, it SHALL NOT contain nested Resources `contained.contained.empty()` dom-4: If a resource is contained in another resource, it SHALL NOT have a meta.versionId or a meta.lastUpdated `contained.meta.versionId.empty() and contained.meta.lastUpdated.empty()` dom-3: If the resource is contained in another resource, it SHALL be referred to from elsewhere in the resource or SHALL refer to the containing resource `contained.where((('#'+id in (%resource.descendants().reference \| %resource.descendants().as(canonical) \| %resource.descendants().as(uri) \| %resource.descendants().as(url))) or descendants().where(reference = '#').exists() or descendants().where(as(canonical) = '#').exists() or descendants().where(as(canonical) = '#').exists()).not()).trace('unmatched', id).empty()` dom-6: A resource should have narrative for robust management text.`div`.exists() dom-5: If a resource is contained in another resource, it SHALL NOT have a security label `contained.meta.security.empty()` Mappings rim: Entity. Role, or Act workflow: Request script10.6: Message/Body/NewRx rim: CombinedMedicationRequest
id	Σ	0..1	string	There are no (further) constraints on this element Element id MedicationRequest.id Short description Logical id of this artifact Definition The logical id of the resource, as used in the URL for the resource. Once assigned, this value never changes. Comments The only time that a resource does not have an id is when it is being submitted to the server using a create operation. Data type string
meta	Σ	0..1	Meta	There are no (further) constraints on this element Element id MedicationRequest.meta Short description Metadata about the resource 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. Data type Meta Constraints ele-1: All FHIR elements must have a @value or children `hasValue() or (children().count() > id.count())` Mappings rim: n/a rim: N/A
implicitRules	Σ ?!	0..1	uri	There are no (further) constraints on this element Element id MedicationRequest.implicitRules Short description A set of rules under which this content was created 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. 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. Data type uri Constraints ele-1: All FHIR elements must have a @value or children `hasValue() or (children().count() > id.count())` Mappings rim: n/a
language		0..1	codeBinding	There are no (further) constraints on this element Element id MedicationRequest.language Short description Language of the resource content Definition The base language in which the resource is written. 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). Data type code Binding A human language. CommonLanguages (preferred) Constraints ele-1: All FHIR elements must have a @value or children `hasValue() or (children().count() > id.count())` Mappings rim: n/a
text		0..1	Narrative	There are no (further) constraints on this element Element id MedicationRequest.text Short description Text summary of the resource, for human interpretation Alternate names narrative, html, xhtml, display 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. 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. Data type Narrative Constraints ele-1: All FHIR elements must have a @value or children `hasValue() or (children().count() > id.count())` Mappings rim: n/a rim: N/A rim: Act.text?
contained		0..*	Resource	There are no (further) constraints on this element Element id MedicationRequest.contained Short description Contained, inline Resources Alternate names inline resources, anonymous resources, contained resources 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. 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. Data type Resource Mappings rim: Entity. Role, or Act rim: N/A
extension	S I	0..*	Extension	Element id MedicationRequest.extension Short description Additional content defined by implementations Alternate names extensions, user content Definition May be used to represent additional information that is not part of the basic definition of the resource. 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. Comments If the previous recipe ID is known, it can be named here Data type Extension Sliced: Unordered, Open, by url(Value) Extensions are always sliced by (at least) url Constraints ele-1: All FHIR elements must have a @value or children `hasValue() or (children().count() > id.count())` ext-1: Must have either extensions or value[x], not both `extension.exists() != value.exists()` Mappings rim: n/a rim: N/A
PriorPrescriptionID	S I	0..1	Extension(Identifier Profile for Prescription IDs (GEM_ERP_PR_PrescriptionId))	Element id MedicationRequest.extension:PriorPrescriptionID Short description Provide a previous PrescriptionID that corresponds to the requested medication. Alternate names extensions, user content Definition The MedicationRequest can contain a PrescriptionId of a prescription that has already been issued. If a previous prescription ID is known, the writing system MAY indicate this in the medication request. If this ID is available, the receiving system MUST be able to search for the previous regulation and give the user the opportunity to display and compare the content. Comments Must be given in the form xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx.xx. Data type Extension(Identifier Profile for Prescription IDs (GEM_ERP_PR_PrescriptionId)) Extension URL https://gematik.de/fhir/erp-servicerequest/StructureDefinition/prescription-id-ex Constraints ele-1: All FHIR elements must have a @value or children `hasValue() or (children().count() > id.count())` ext-1: Must have either extensions or value[x], not both `extension.exists() != value.exists()` Mappings rim: n/a rim: N/A
modifierExtension	?! I	0..*	Extension	There are no (further) constraints on this element Element id MedicationRequest.modifierExtension Short description Extensions that cannot be ignored Alternate names extensions, user content 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). 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. 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. Data type Extension Sliced: Unordered, Open, by url(Value) Extensions are always sliced by (at least) url Constraints ele-1: All FHIR elements must have a @value or children `hasValue() or (children().count() > id.count())` ext-1: Must have either extensions or value[x], not both `extension.exists() != value.exists()` Mappings rim: n/a rim: N/A
requestMVO	S ?! I	0..1	Extension(boolean)	Element id MedicationRequest.modifierExtension:requestMVO Short description Multiple prescription order Alternate names extensions, user content Definition If the prescription is should be a multiple prescription order. Only the 'Kennzeichen' should be stated, indicating that the prescription is requested to be a multiple prescription order. 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. Comments When this extension is received by a PVS, the prescriber has to be visually notified about the request for a multiple prescription order. Data type Extension(boolean) Extension URL https://gematik.de/fhir/erp-servicerequest/StructureDefinition/request-mvo-ex Constraints ele-1: All FHIR elements must have a @value or children `hasValue() or (children().count() > id.count())` ext-1: Must have either extensions or value[x], not both `extension.exists() != value.exists()` Mappings rim: n/a rim: N/A
identifier		0..*	Identifier	There are no (further) constraints on this element Element id MedicationRequest.identifier Short description External ids for this request Definition Identifiers associated with this medication request that are defined by business processes and/or used to refer to it when a direct URL reference to the resource itself is not appropriate. They are business identifiers assigned to this resource by the performer or other systems and remain constant as the resource is updated and propagates from server to server. Comments This is a business identifier, not a resource identifier. Data type Identifier Constraints ele-1: All FHIR elements must have a @value or children `hasValue() or (children().count() > id.count())` Mappings rim: n/a v2: CX / EI (occasionally, more often EI maps to a resource id or a URL) rim: II - The Identifier class is a little looser than the v3 type II because it allows URIs as well as registered OIDs or GUIDs.

intent	Σ ?!	1..1	codeBinding	There are no (further) constraints on this element Element id MedicationRequest.intent Short description proposal \| plan \| order \| original-order \| reflex-order \| filler-order \| instance-order \| option Definition Whether the request is a proposal, plan, or an original order. Comments It is expected that the type of requester will be restricted for different stages of a MedicationRequest. For example, Proposals can be created by a patient, relatedPerson, Practitioner or Device. Plans can be created by Practitioners, Patients, RelatedPersons and Devices. Original orders can be created by a Practitioner only. An instance-order is an instantiation of a request or order and may be used to populate Medication Administration Record. This element is labeled as a modifier because the intent alters when and how the resource is actually applicable.

dose[x]	Σ	0..1		There are no (further) constraints on this element Element id MedicationRequest.dosageInstruction.doseAndRate.dose[x] Short description Amount of medication per dose Definition Amount of medication per dose. Requirements The amount of therapeutic or other substance given at one administration event. Comments Note that this specifies the quantity of the specified medication, not the quantity for each active ingredient(s). Each ingredient amount can be communicated in the Medication resource. For example, if one wants to communicate that a tablet was 375 mg, where the dose was one tablet, you can use the Medication resource to document that the tablet was comprised of 375 mg of drug XYZ. Alternatively if the dose was 375 mg, then you may only need to use the Medication resource to indicate this was a tablet. If the example were an IV such as dopamine and you wanted to communicate that 400mg of dopamine was mixed in 500 ml of some IV solution, then this would all be communicated in the Medication resource. If the administration is not intended to be instantaneous (rate is present or timing has a duration), this can be specified to convey the total amount to be administered over the period of time as indicated by the schedule e.g. 500 ml in dose, with timing used to convey that this should be done over 4 hours.

rate[x]	Σ	0..1		There are no (further) constraints on this element Element id MedicationRequest.dosageInstruction.doseAndRate.rate[x] Short description Amount of medication per unit of time Definition Amount of medication per unit of time. Requirements Identifies the speed with which the medication was or will be introduced into the patient. Typically the rate for an infusion e.g. 100 ml per 1 hour or 100 ml/hr. May also be expressed as a rate per unit of time e.g. 500 ml per 2 hours. Other examples: 200 mcg/min or 200 mcg/1 minute; 1 liter/8 hours. Sometimes, a rate can imply duration when expressed as total volume / duration (e.g. 500mL/2 hours implies a duration of 2 hours). However, when rate doesn't imply duration (e.g. 250mL/hour), then the timing.repeat.duration is needed to convey the infuse over time period. Comments It is possible to supply both a rate and a doseQuantity to provide full details about how the medication is to be administered and supplied. If the rate is intended to change over time, depending on local rules/regulations, each change should be captured as a new version of the MedicationRequest with an updated rate, or captured with a new MedicationRequest with the new rate. It is possible to specify a rate over time (for example, 100 ml/hour) using either the rateRatio and rateQuantity. The rateQuantity approach requires systems to have the capability to parse UCUM grammer where ml/hour is included rather than a specific ratio where the time is specified as the denominator. Where a rate such as 500ml over 2 hours is specified, the use of rateRatio may be more semantically correct than specifying using a rateQuantity of 250 mg/hour.

MedicationRequest.dosageInstruction.doseAndRate.dose[x]
Definition	Amount of medication per dose.
Cardinality	0...1
Type	Range
Summary	True
Requirements	The amount of therapeutic or other substance given at one administration event.
Comments	Note that this specifies the quantity of the specified medication, not the quantity for each active ingredient(s). Each ingredient amount can be communicated in the Medication resource. For example, if one wants to communicate that a tablet was 375 mg, where the dose was one tablet, you can use the Medication resource to document that the tablet was comprised of 375 mg of drug XYZ. Alternatively if the dose was 375 mg, then you may only need to use the Medication resource to indicate this was a tablet. If the example were an IV such as dopamine and you wanted to communicate that 400mg of dopamine was mixed in 500 ml of some IV solution, then this would all be communicated in the Medication resource. If the administration is not intended to be instantaneous (rate is present or timing has a duration), this can be specified to convey the total amount to be administered over the period of time as indicated by the schedule e.g. 500 ml in dose, with timing used to convey that this should be done over 4 hours.

MedicationRequest.dosageInstruction.doseAndRate.rate[x]
Definition	Amount of medication per unit of time.
Cardinality	0...1
Type	Ratio
Summary	True
Requirements	Identifies the speed with which the medication was or will be introduced into the patient. Typically the rate for an infusion e.g. 100 ml per 1 hour or 100 ml/hr. May also be expressed as a rate per unit of time e.g. 500 ml per 2 hours. Other examples: 200 mcg/min or 200 mcg/1 minute; 1 liter/8 hours. Sometimes, a rate can imply duration when expressed as total volume / duration (e.g. 500mL/2 hours implies a duration of 2 hours). However, when rate doesn't imply duration (e.g. 250mL/hour), then the timing.repeat.duration is needed to convey the infuse over time period.
Comments	It is possible to supply both a rate and a doseQuantity to provide full details about how the medication is to be administered and supplied. If the rate is intended to change over time, depending on local rules/regulations, each change should be captured as a new version of the MedicationRequest with an updated rate, or captured with a new MedicationRequest with the new rate. It is possible to specify a rate over time (for example, 100 ml/hour) using either the rateRatio and rateQuantity. The rateQuantity approach requires systems to have the capability to parse UCUM grammer where ml/hour is included rather than a specific ratio where the time is specified as the denominator. Where a rate such as 500ml over 2 hours is specified, the use of rateRatio may be more semantically correct than specifying using a rateQuantity of 250 mg/hour.

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.
Slicing	Unordered, Open, by url(Value)
Invariants	ele-1: All FHIR elements must have a @value or children `hasValue() or (children().count() > id.count())` ext-1: Must have either extensions or value[x], not both `extension.exists() != value.exists()`
Mappings	rim: n/a rim: N/A
MedicationRequest.dispenseRequest.quantity.value
Definition	Number prescribed
Cardinality	1...1
Type	decimal
Must Support	True
Summary	True
Requirements	Precision is handled implicitly in almost all cases of measurement.
Comments	The implicit precision in the value should always be honored. Monetary values have their own rules for handling precision (refer to standard accounting text books).
Invariants	ele-1: All FHIR elements must have a @value or children `hasValue() or (children().count() > id.count())`

Definition	Not allowed to be used in this context
Cardinality	0...0
Type	code
Binding	How the Quantity should be understood and represented. QuantityComparator (required)
Modifier	True
Summary	True
Requirements	Need a framework for handling measures where the value is <5ug/L or >400mg/L due to the limitations of measuring methodology.
Comments	Note that FHIR strings SHALL NOT exceed 1MB in size

MedicationRequest.dispenseRequest.quantity.unit
Definition	This is a free text field that can be used to specify the units of the prescription.
Cardinality	1...1
Type	string
Must Support	True
Summary	True
Requirements	There are many representations for units of measure and in many contexts, particular representations are fixed and required. I.e. mcg for micrograms.
Comments	Note that FHIR strings SHALL NOT exceed 1MB in size
Invariants	ele-1: All FHIR elements must have a @value or children `hasValue() or (children().count() > id.count())`
Mappings	rim: n/a v2: (see OBX.6 etc.) / CQ.2 rim: PQ.unit
MedicationRequest.dispenseRequest.quantity.system
Definition	The identification of the system that provides the coded form of the unit.
Cardinality	0...1
Type	uri
Summary	True
Requirements	Need to know the system that defines the coded form of the unit.
Comments	see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Uniform_resource_identifier

MedicationRequest.dispenseRequest.quantity.code
Definition	If a structured code is used it must be from UnitsOfMeasure
Cardinality	0...1
Type	code
Summary	True
Requirements	Need a computable form of the unit that is fixed across all forms. UCUM provides this for quantities, but SNOMED CT provides many units of interest.
Comments	The preferred system is UCUM, but SNOMED CT can also be used (for customary units) or ISO 4217 for currency. The context of use may additionally require a code from a particular system.

MedicationRequest.dispenseRequest.expectedSupplyDuration
Definition	Identifies the period time over which the supplied product is expected to be used, or the length of time the dispense is expected to last.
Cardinality	0...1
Type	Duration
Comments	In some situations, this attribute may be used instead of quantity to identify the amount supplied by how long it is expected to last, rather than the physical quantity issued, e.g. 90 days supply of medication (based on an ordered dosage). When possible, it is always better to specify quantity, as this tends to be more precise. expectedSupplyDuration will always be an estimate that can be influenced by external factors.
Invariants	ele-1: All FHIR elements must have a @value or children `hasValue() or (children().count() > id.count())` qty-3: If a code for the unit is present, the system SHALL also be present `code.empty() or system.exists()` drt-1: There SHALL be a code if there is a value and it SHALL be an expression of time. If system is present, it SHALL be UCUM. `code.exists() implies ((system = %ucum) and value.exists())`

Type	Reference(Organization)
Comments	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.
Invariants	ele-1: All FHIR elements must have a @value or children `hasValue() or (children().count() > id.count())` ref-1: SHALL have a contained resource if a local reference is provided `reference.startsWith('#').not() or (reference.substring(1).trace('url') in %rootResource.contained.id.trace('ids'))`

MedicationRequest.substitution.extension
Definition	May be used to represent additional information that is not part of the basic definition of the element. 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.

MedicationRequest.substitution.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).
Cardinality	0...*
Type	Extension
Modifier	True
Summary	True
Alias	extensions, user content, modifiers
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.
