12.2 Resource Transport - Content

Orders and Observations icon Work GroupMaturity Level: 1 Trial UseSecurity Category: Patient Compartments: No defined compartments

Record of transport of item.

12.2.1 Scope and Usage

This resource is an event resource from a FHIR workflow perspective - see Workflow. It is the intent of the Orders and Observation Workgroup to align this resource with the workflow pattern for event resources.

The Transport resource captures the requested movement and movement history of persons and items in the healthcare spectrum. The Transport resource documents the movement of a person or item. Since it follows the event pattern, it can be used in the request of a transport event, but it can be used in conjunction with the Task resource to operationalize a movement event in a workflow. While the current use cases are focused on the lab and the movement of patients, this resource will be easily extensible to handle the movement of anything in healthcare. Sample use cases for the laboratory are as follows:

  • Movement of a specimen between distinct healthcare locations (clinic to lab, lab to lab, lab to biorepository) without the use of a third-party transport system (e.g. a courier)
  • Movement of a specimen between distinct healthcare locations (clinic to lab, lab to lab, lab to biorepository) with the use of a third-party transport system (e.g. a courier)
  • Accessing the current location (tracking) and the complete location history (audit) for a given specimen.
Sample use cases involving patients include
  • Movement of a patient within a healthcare setting (changing floors of the hospital)
  • Movement of a patient between healthcare settings (moving a patient from one hospital to another)

12.2.2 Background and Context

With the emergence of IHE profiles on the movement of laboratory specimens (SET icon) and the growing needs around the movement of patients (documentation, scheduling, real-time updates), there is a need to capture the data around the movement of a patient or item in the healthcare setting. While the Task resource captures some of the data generated around an event, the Transport resource is built to capture the documentation along with the request/fulfillment of a transport event.

12.2.3 Boundaries and Relationships

The Transport resource can be requested by a ServiceRequest or by a Task, as shown in the diagram below. Also, this resource is only for the documentation of the physical movement of material items (people, animals, things). To operationalize the movement of people and things, Task should be used. Provenance can be used to document the steps but that is for the resource aspect, not the actual movement history of the item. During the movement of a patient, the business status (change in the level of care/patient class) might change. To allow for the capture of the current business status of the patient, the reason element should be used.

Transport (DomainResource)Identifier for the transport event that is used to identify it across multiple disparate systemsidentifier : Identifier [0..*]The URL pointing to a *FHIR*-defined protocol, guideline, orderset or other definition that is adhered to in whole or in part by this TransportinstantiatesCanonical : canonical [0..1] « ActivityDefinition »The URL pointing to an *externally* maintained protocol, guideline, orderset or other definition that is adhered to in whole or in part by this TransportinstantiatesUri : uri [0..1]BasedOn refers to a higher-level authorization that triggered the creation of the transport. It references a "request" resource such as a ServiceRequest or Transport, which is distinct from the "request" resource the Transport is seeking to fulfill. This latter resource is referenced by FocusOn.

Transport (DomainResource)Identifier for the transport event that is used to identify it across multiple disparate systemsidentifier : Identifier [0..*]The URL pointing to a *FHIR*-defined protocol, guideline, orderset or other definition that is adhered to in whole or in part by this TransportinstantiatesCanonical : canonical [0..1] « ActivityDefinition »The URL pointing to an *externally* maintained protocol, guideline, orderset or other definition that is adhered to in whole or in part by this TransportinstantiatesUri : uri [0..1]BasedOn refers to a higher-level authorization that triggered the creation of the transport. It references a "request" resource such as a ServiceRequest or Transport, which is distinct from the "request" resource the Transport is seeking to fulfill. This latter resource is referenced by FocusOn. For example, based on a ServiceRequest (= BasedOn), a transport is created to fulfill a procedureRequest ( = FocusOn ) to transport a specimen to the labbasedOn : Reference [0..*] « Any »A shared identifier common to multiple independent Request instances that were activated/authorized more or less simultaneously by a single author. The presence of the same identifier on each request ties those requests together and may have business ramifications in terms of reporting of results, billing, etc. E.g. a requisition number shared by a set of lab tests ordered together, or a prescription number shared by all meds ordered at one timegroupIdentifier : Identifier [0..1]A larger event of which this particular event is a component or steppartOf : Reference [0..*] « Transport »A code specifying the state of the transport event (this element modifies the meaning of other elements)status : code [0..1] « null (Strength=Required)TransportStatus! »An explanation as to why this transport is held, failed, was refused, etcstatusReason : CodeableConcept [0..1] « null (Strength=Example)TransportStatusReason?? »Indicates the "level" of actionability associated with the Transport, i.e. i+R[9]Cs this a proposed transport, a planned transport, an actionable transport, etcintent : code [1..1] « null (Strength=Required)TransportIntent! »Indicates how quickly the Transport should be addressed with respect to other requestspriority : code [0..1] « The transport's priority.
