The result obtained for this test using the appropriate data type. Numeric results use data type PQ, which includes the unit. The result is absent in case of ‘aborted’ observation.

(IHELaboratoryObservation)
treetree hl7:interpretationCode
CE 0 … 1

One or more codes interpreting the result, expressed with ObservationInterpretation vocabulary (e.g., H = high, L = low). In case of a antimicrobial susceptibility test in microbiology, the vocabulary domain is ObservationInterpretationSusceptibility:

  • S = susceptible
  • R = resistant
  • I = intermediate
  • SDD = Susceptible-dose dependent

This element may be coded with other values than those of the ObservationInterpretation vocabulary, given that the coding strength is CWE (coded with exceptions).

The Clinical Statement of CDA does not support the association of a criterion with a reference range, thus forbidding expressing in a Laboratory Report that a reference range is conditioned by the patient’s sex, and/or the patient’s age.

The proposed extension to express these criteria is the same that has been adopted by the “Care Continuity Document” implementation guide: It adds a precondition actRelationship between ObservationRange class and Criterion class of the CDA entry model.
