5.13 Resource DeviceUseRequest - Content

This resource maintained by the Health Care Devices Work Group

Represents a request for a patient to employ a medical device. The device may be an implantable device, or an external assistive device, such as a walker.

5.13.1 Scope and Usage

These resources have not yet undergone proper review by PC, CQI, CDS, and OO. At this time, they are to be considered only as draft resource proposals for potential submission.

This resource describes the request for the use of a device by a patient. The device may be any pertinent device specified in the Device resource. Examples of devices that may be requested include wheelchair, hearing aids, or an insulin pump. The request may lead to the dispensing of the device to the patient or for use by the patient.

The device use request may represent an order or a prescription entered by a practitioner in a CPOE system or a proposal made by a clinical decision support (CDS) system based on a patient's clinical record and context of care.

5.13.2 Boundaries and Relationships

Certain devices must be implanted via a surgical or other procedure. The data about the implantation or explantation is represented in the Procedure or ProcedureRequest resource, as appropriate. Some devices create observations. These observations are recorded as resources of type DeviceObservationReport.
