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-procedure

This profile sets minimum expectations for the Procedure resource to record, search and fetch procedures 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-Procedure profile:

  • Query for procedures performed on a Patient
  • Record a procedure performed on a Patient
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 Procedure must have:

  1. a status
  2. a code that identifies the type of procedure performed on the patient
  3. a patient
  4. when the procedure was performed

Profile specific implementation guidance:

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 /Procedure?patient=[id]

Example: GET [base]/Procedure?patient=1291938

Support: Mandatory to support search by patient.

Implementation Notes: Search for all Procedures for a patient. Fetches a bundle of all Procedure resources for the specified patient. (how to search by reference).

GET /Procedure?patient=[id]&date=[date]{&date=[date]}

Example: GET [base]Procedure?example&date=ge2002

Example: GET [base]Procedure?example&date=ge2010$date=le2015

Support: Mandatory to support search by patient and date or period.

Implementation Notes: Search based on date. Fetches a bundle of all Procedure resources for the specified patient for a specified time period (how to search by reference) and (how to search by date).
