R4 Ballot #2 (Mixed Normative/Trial use)

This page is part of the FHIR Specification (v3.5.0: R4 Ballot #2). The current version which supercedes this version is 5.0.0. For a full list of available versions, see the Directory of published versions . Page versions: R5 R4B R4 R3 R2

9.3 Resource Procedure - Content

Patient Care Work GroupMaturity Level: 3 Trial Use Compartments: Encounter, Patient, Practitioner, RelatedPerson

An action that is or was performed on or for a patient. This can be a physical intervention like an operation, or less invasive like long term services, counseling, or hypnotherapy.

9.3.1 Scope and Usage

Procedure is one of the event resources in the FHIR workflow specification.

This resource is used to record the details of current and historical procedures performed on or for a patient. A procedure is an activity that is performed on, with, or for a patient as part of the provision of care. Examples include surgical procedures, diagnostic procedures, endoscopic procedures, biopsies, counseling, physiotherapy, personal support services, adult day care services, non-emergency transportation, home modification, exercise, etc. Procedures may be performed by a healthcare professional, a service provider, a friend or relative or in some cases by the patient themselves.

This resource provides summary information about the occurrence of the procedure and is not intended to provide real-time snapshots of a procedure as it unfolds, though for long-running procedures such as psychotherapy, it could represent summary level information about overall progress. The creation of a resource to support detailed real-time procedure information awaits the identification of a specific implementation use-case to share such information.

9.3.2 Boundaries and Relationships

The Procedure resource should not be used to capture an event if a more specific resource already exists - i.e. immunizations, drug administrations and communications. The boundary between determining whether an action is a Procedure (training or counseling) as opposed to a Communication is based on whether there's a specific intent to change the mind-set of the patient. Mere disclosure of information would be considered a Communication. A process that involves verification of the patient's comprehension or to change the patient's mental state would be a Procedure.

Note that many diagnostic processes are procedures that generate Observations and DiagnosticReports. In many cases, such an observation does not require an explicit representation of the procedure used to create the observation, but where there are details of interest about how the diagnostic procedure was performed, the procedure resource is used to describe the activity.

Some diagnostic procedures might not have a Procedure record. The Procedure record is only necessary when there is a need to capture information about the physical intervention that was performed to capture the diagnostic information (e.g. anesthetic, incision, scope size, etc.)

This resource is referenced by AdverseEvent, Appointment, ChargeItem, Claim, DeviceUseStatement, Encounter, ExplanationOfBenefit, Flag, ImagingStudy, MedicationAdministration, MedicationDispense, MedicationStatement, Observation, itself and QuestionnaireResponse

9.3.3.1 Terminology Bindings

PathDefinitionTypeReference
Procedure.status A code specifying the state of the procedure.RequiredEventStatus
Procedure.statusReason A code that identifies the reason a procedure was not performed.ExampleProcedureNotPerformedReason(SNOMED-CT)
Procedure.category A code that classifies a procedure for searching, sorting and display purposes.ExampleProcedureCategoryCodes(SNOMEDCT)
Procedure.code A code to identify a specific procedure .ExampleProcedureCodes(SNOMEDCT)
Procedure.performer.function A code that identifies the role of a performer of the procedure.ExampleProcedurePerformerRoleCodes
Procedure.reasonCode A code that identifies the reason a procedure is required.ExampleProcedureReasonCodes
Procedure.bodySite Codes describing anatomical locations. May include laterality.ExampleSNOMEDCTBodyStructures
Procedure.outcome An outcome of a procedure - whether it was resolved or otherwise.ExampleProcedureOutcomeCodes(SNOMEDCT)
Procedure.complication Codes describing complications that resulted from a procedure.ExampleCondition/Problem/DiagnosisCodes
Procedure.followUp Specific follow up required for a procedure e.g. removal of sutures.ExampleProcedureFollowUpCodes(SNOMEDCT)
Procedure.focalDevice.action A kind of change that happened to the device during the procedure.PreferredProcedureDeviceActionCodes
Procedure.usedCode Codes describing items used during a procedure.ExampleFHIRDeviceTypes

9.3.3.2 Use of Procedure properties

Many of the elements of Procedure have inherent relationships and may be conveyed by the Procedure.code or in the text element of the Procedure.code property. I.e. You may be able to infer category, bodySite and even indication. Whether these other properties will be populated may vary by implementation.

Care should be taken to avoid nonsensical combinations/statements; e.g. "name=amputation, bodySite=heart"

9.3.3.3 Use of Procedure.used

For devices, these are devices that are incidental to / or used to perform the procedure - scalpels, gauze, endoscopes, etc. Devices that are the focus of the procedure should appear in Procedure.device instead.

9.3.4 Search Parameters

Search parameters for this resource. The common parameters also apply. See Searching for more information about searching in REST, messaging, and services.
