5.10.6 Resource DeviceMetric - Detailed Descriptions

Detailed Descriptions for the elements in the DeviceMetric resource.

DeviceMetric
Definition

Describes a measurement, calculation or setting capability of a medical device.

Control1..1
DeviceMetric.type
Definition

Describes the type of the metric. For example: Heart Rate, PEEP Setting, etc.

Control1..1
BindingMetricType: Preferred: RTM Management Service (Describes the metric type)
TypeCodeableConcept
DeviceMetric.identifier
Definition

Describes the unique identification of this metric that has been assigned by the device or gateway software. For example: handle ID. It should be noted that in order to make the identifier unique, the system element of the identifier should be set to the unique identifier of the device.

Control1..1
TypeIdentifier
DeviceMetric.unit
Definition

Describes the unit that an observed value determined for this metric will have. For example: Percent, Seconds, etc.

Control0..1
BindingMetricUnit: Preferred: RTM Management Service (Describes the unit of the metric)
TypeCodeableConcept
DeviceMetric.source
Definition

Describes the link to the Device that this DeviceMetric belongs to and that contains administrative device information such as manufacture, serial number, etc.

Control0..1
TypeReference(Device)
DeviceMetric.parent
Definition

Describes the link to the DeviceComponent that this DeviceMetric belongs to and that provide information about the location of this DeviceMetric in the containment structure of the parent Device. An example would be a DeviceComponent that represents a Channel. This reference can be used by a client application to distinguish DeviceMetrics that have the same type, but should be interpreted based on their containment location.

Control0..1
TypeReference(DeviceComponent)
DeviceMetric.operationalStatus
Definition

Indicates current operational state of the device. For example: On, Off, Standby, etc.

Control0..1
BindingDeviceMetricOperationalStatus: Required: http://hl7.org/fhir/metric-operational-status (Describes the operational status of the DeviceMetric)
Typecode
DeviceMetric.measurementMode
Definition

Describes the physical principle of the measurement. For example: thermal, chemical, acoustical, etc.

Control0..1
TypeIdentifier
DeviceMetric.color
Definition

Describes the typical color of the representation of observations that have been generated for this DeviceMetric.

Control0..1
TypeIdentifier
DeviceMetric.category
Definition

Indicates the category of the observation generation process. A DeviceMetric can be for example a setting, measurement, or calculation.

Control1..1
BindingDeviceMetricCategory: Required: http://hl7.org/fhir/metric-category (Describes the category of the metric)
Typecode
DeviceMetric.measurementPeriod
Definition

Describes the measurement repetition time. This is not necessarily the same as the update period.

Control0..1
TypeTiming
DeviceMetric.calibrationInfo
Definition

Describes the calibrations that have been performed or that are required to be performed.

Control0..*
DeviceMetric.calibrationInfo.type
Definition

Describes the type of the calibration method.

Control0..1
BindingDeviceMetricCalibrationType: Required: http://hl7.org/fhir/metric-calibration-type (Describes the type of a metric calibration)
Typecode
DeviceMetric.calibrationInfo.state
Definition

Describes the state of the calibration.

Control0..1
BindingDeviceMetricCalibrationState: Required: http://hl7.org/fhir/metric-calibration-state (Describes the state of a metric calibration)
Typecode
DeviceMetric.calibrationInfo.time
Definition

Describes the time last calibration has been performed.

Control0..1
