IHE MPD Order Responder

The Order Responder provides access to medication orders stored in the system.

Behavior: Capability Statements

The following artifacts define the specific capabilities that different types of systems are expected to have in order to comply with this implementation guide. Systems conforming to this implementation guide are expected to declare conformance to one or more of the following capability statements.

IHE MPD Dispense Consumer

The CapabilityStatement for the Dispense Consumer describes the requirements for systems that retrieve dispense data.

IHE MPD Dispense Receiver(server)

The CapabililtyStatement for the Dispense Reporter Actor expresses the compliance requirements for systems implementing the actor.

IHE MPD Dispense Responder (server)

The CapabililtyStatement for the Dispense Reporter Actor expresses the compliance requirements for systems implementing the actor.

IHE MPD Dispense Responder (server)

The CapabililtyStatement for the Dispense Responder Actor expresses the compliance requirements for systems implementing the actor.

IHE MPD Order Receiver (server)

IHE Pharmacy Order Placer Actor

The CapabililtyStatement for the Order Placer Actor expresses the compliance requirements for systems implementing the actor.

Behavior: Search Parameters

These define the properties by which a RESTful server can be searched. They can also be used for sorting and including related resources.

activity-resource

Search on the resources that are linked to a RequestOrchestration - important to allow for example _revInclude

group-or-identifier

Single search on both request.identifier or groupIdentifier

Structures: Logical Models

These define data models that represent the domain covered by this implementation guide in more business-friendly terms than the underlying FHIR resources.

Dosaging (model)

Logical model for usage instructions for administring the requested product. Based on FHIR Dosage complex data type.

Medication order (model)

Logical model for medication prescription or other types of medication orders

Medication order - multiline (model)

Logical model for multiline medication prescription

Medicinal product (model)

Logical model for prescribed/dispensed medication. The model is shared by statements, requests, dispensations, and treatment lines. Each of those may have different restrictions in FHIR profile.

Patient (model)

Logical model for patient (basic data relevant for this use case)

Practitioner (model)

Logical model for practitioner (basic data relevant for this use case)

Structures: Resource Profiles

These define constraints on FHIR resources for systems conforming to this implementation guide.

IHE Medication

Medication for clinical use cases. This could be a branded product or a generic concept, also allowing describing pack size and components of complex products.

IHE Medication Dispense

MedicationDispense profile for capturing dispensation information based on a medication prescription.

IHE Medication Order

IHE Medication Order profile

Structures: Extension Definitions

These define constraints on FHIR data types for systems conforming to this implementation guide.

Medication - Characteristic

Any characteristic of the medicinal product prescribed or dispensed (for example, price, textual package description, special program information, etc)

Medication - Classification

Medication classification/category. Allows the product to be classified by various systems, e.g ATC, narcotic class, legal status of supply, etc..

Medication - Device

Device, typically an administration device, included in the medicinal product.

Medication - Ingreditne role

Medication ingredient role - whether it is an active ingredient, excipient, adjuvant, solvent, flavouring, etc.

Medication - Product Name

Name of the medicinal product. This is typically the name of a real product as registered. This element should not contain display names of virtual product concepts.

Medication - Size of Item

Size of a manufactured item or unit of presentation. For example, size of one vial in a package that may contain several vials.

Medication - Strength substance

Substance for marking the basis of strength. When the precise active ingredient is a salt, the strength is often provided for the active moiety (basis of strength).

Medication - Strength type

Strength type (e.g. concentration strength, presentation strength)

Medication - Unit of presentation

Unit of presentation, typically describing the smallest countable package item (e.g tablet, vial, ampoule, etc). Unit of presentation is also often used in describing pack size and the denominator of strength. If the size of presentation unit is relevant, it should be described in sizeOfItem extension.

MedicationRequest - Prescribed Quantity

Total amount of product being requested. This may refer to number of packages when package size is indicated in Medication resource.

Off-label use

Indicates that the prescriber has intentionally prescribed the medication in a manner not covered by the product authorization — such as for a different indication, age group, dosage, or route of administration.
