US Core Implementation Guide STU 2

This page is part of the US Core (v2.0.0: STU2) based on FHIR R3. The current version which supercedes this version is 5.0.1. For a full list of available versions, see the Directory of published versions

StructureDefinition-us-core-device

This profile sets minimum expectations for the Device resource to record, search and fetch UDI information associated with a patient. It identifies which core elements, extensions, vocabularies and value sets SHALL be present in the resource when using this profile.

Example Usage Scenarios:

The following are example usage scenarios for the US Core-Device profile:

  • Query for a Patient’s Devices
  • Record a Patient Device
Mandatory Data Elements and Terminology

The following data-elements are mandatory (i.e data MUST be present). These are presented below in a simple human-readable explanation. Profile specific guidance and examples are provided as well. The Formal Profile Definition below provides the formal summary, definitions, and terminology requirements.

Each Device must have:

  1. a UDI string (“udicarrier”)
  2. a code identifying the type of resource
  3. a patient

Profile specific implementation guidance:

  • none

Complete Summary of the Mandatory Requirements

  1. One udicarrier string in Device.udicarrier
    • The Human Readable Form (HRF) representation of the barcode string as printed on the packaging of the device SHALL be used. The AIDC representation cannot be conveyed in FHIR, Because of limitations on character sets in XML and the need to round-trip JSON data through XML.
  2. A code in Device.type which has an extensible binding to:
  3. One patient reference in Device.patient

Quick Start

Below is an overview of the required set of RESTful FHIR interactions - for example, search and read operations - for this profile. See the Conformance requirements for a complete list of supported RESTful interactions for this IG.

GET /Device?patient=[id]

Example: GET [base]/Device?patient=1032702

Support: Mandatory to support search by patient.

Implementation Notes: Search for all implantable device UDIs for a patient. Fetches a bundle of all Device resources for the specified patient (how to search by reference).
