Logical Model: Criticality Observation

This observation represents the gravity of the potential risk for future life-threatening adverse reactions when exposed to a substance known to cause an adverse reaction in that individual. When the worst case result is assessed to have a life-threatening or organ system threatening potential, it is considered to be of high criticality.

Usage:

• Use this Logical Model: Substance or Device Allergy - Intolerance Observation
