Artifacts Summary

This page provides a list of the FHIR artifacts defined as part of this implementation guide.

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 - Data Model

Usage instructions. Instructions about requested administration of the product. Based on FHIR Dosage complex data type.

Medication dispensation - Data Model

Logical model for medication dispensation (based on request or independently)

Medication prescription - Data Model

Logical model for medication prescription (or some other form of order)

Medicinal product

Medication information. The model is shared by statements, requests, dispensations, and treatment lines. Each of those may have different restrictions in FHIR profile.

Patient - Data Model

Basic patient data relevant for this use case

Practitioner - Data Model

Basic prescribing/dispensing practitioner’s data relevant for this use case

Structures: Resource Profiles

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

IHE Medication Prescription

IHE Medication Prescription profile

IHEMedicationDispensation

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

Medicinal product

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.

Structures: Extension Definitions

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

Classification

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

Medication Classification

Classification.

Medication Package Size

Package size of a product.

Medication Package Size

Classification.

MedicationRequest - Total Amount

Total amount of product being requested.

MedicinalProductDevice

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

MedicinalProductName

Name of the medicinal product. Optionally the type of name (Full official name, prescribing name, invented name) and language of the name can be specified. The extension is a simplified approach of what is used in MedicinalProductDefinition resource.

SizeOfMedicationItem

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

Example: Example Instances

These are example instances that show what data produced and consumed by systems conforming with this implementation guide might look like.
