The IE Core DiagnosticReport Profile for Laboratory Results Reporting inherits from the FHIR DiagnosticReport resource; refer to it for scope and usage definitions. Laboratory results are grouped and summarized using the DiagnosticReport resource, which typically references Observation resource(s). Each Observation resource represents an individual laboratory test and result value or component result values or a nested panel (such as a microbial susceptibility panel) that references other observations. Laboratory results can also be presented in report form or as free text. This profile sets minimum expectations for the DiagnosticReport resource to record, search, and fetch laboratory results associated with a patient. It specifies which core elements, extensions, vocabularies, and value sets SHALL be present and constrains how the elements are used. Providing the floor for standards development for specific use cases promotes interoperability and adoption.

Example Usage Scenarios:

The following are example usage scenarios for the IE Core DiagnosticReport Profile for Laboratory Results Reporting:

  • Query for lab reports belonging to a Patient
  • Record or update a lab report for a specific Patient

Mandatory and Must Support Data Elements

The following data elements must always be present (Mandatory definition) or must be supported if the data is present in the sending system (Must Support definition). They are presented below in a simple human-readable explanation. Profile specific guidance and examples are provided as well. The Formal Views below provides the formal summary, definitions, and terminology requirements.

Each DiagnosticReport Must Have:

  1. a status
  2. a category code of 'LAB'
  3. a code (preferably a LOINC code) which tells you what is being measured
  4. a patient
  5. the diagnostically relevant time (known as the "effective time" and typically the time of specimen collection)*
  6. when the report was released*

*These elements have the following constraints: SHALL be present if status is 'partial', 'preliminary', 'final', 'amended', 'corrected', or 'appended'.

Each DiagnosticReport Must Support:

  1. a timestamp when the resource last changed*
  2. encounter associated with DiagnosticReport
  3. who issues the report
  4. a result

Profile Specific Implementation Guidance:

  • Additional codes that translate or map to the DiagnosticReport codes or category codes are allowed. For example:
    • providing both a local system code and a LOINC code that it maps to
    • providing a more specific category code to the "LAB" category code, such as "CH" (chemistry), in an additional coding element.
  • Results that are free text or report form are represented using the 'presentedForm' element in DiagnosticReport.
  • * See the IE Core General Guidance page for Searching Using lastUpdated. Updates to Meta.lastUpdated SHOULD reflect:
    • New laboratory reports
    • Changes in the status of laboratory reports, including events that trigger the same status (e.g., amended → amended).

Based upon additional testing, we intend to to upgrade the Meta.lastUpdated guidance (SHOULD) to requirements (SHALL) in the next version of IE Core

Note that systems that support only IE Core Profiles (Profile Only Support) are not required to support these interactions. See the IE Core Server CapabilityStatement for a complete list of supported RESTful interactions for this IG.

  • See the Scopes Format section for a description of the SMART scopes syntax.
  • See the Search Syntax section for a description of the IE Core search syntax.
  • See the General Requirements section for additional rules and expectations when a server requires status parameters.
  • See the General Guidance section for additional guidance on searching for multiple patients.

IE Core Scopes

Servers providing access to laboratory data SHALL support these IE Core SMART Scopes:

Mandatory Search Parameters:

The following search parameters and search parameter combinations SHALL be supported:

  1. SHALL support searching for all diagnosticreports for a patient using the patient search parameter:

    GET [base]/DiagnosticReport?patient={Type/}[id]

    Example:

    1. GET [base]/DiagnosticReport?patient=1137192

    Implementation Notes: Fetches a bundle of all DiagnosticReport resources for the specified patient (how to search by reference)

  2. SHALL support searching using the combination of the patient and category search parameters:

    GET [base]/DiagnosticReport?patient={Type/}[id]&category=http://terminology.hl7.org/CodeSystem/v2-0074|LAB

    Example:

    1. GET [base]/DiagnosticReport?patient=f201&category=http://terminology.hl7.org/CodeSystem/v2-0074|LAB

    Implementation Notes: Fetches a bundle of all DiagnosticReport resources for the specified patient and a category code = LAB (how to search by reference and how to search by token)

  3. SHALL support searching using the combination of the patient and code search parameters:
    • including optional support for OR search on code (e.g.code={system|}[code],{system|}[code],...)

    GET [base]/DiagnosticReport?patient={Type/}[id]&code={system|}[code]{,{system|}[code],...}

    Example:

    1. GET [base]/DiagnosticReport?patient=1032702&code=http://loinc.org|24323-8

    Implementation Notes: Fetches a bundle of all DiagnosticReport resources for the specified patient and report code(s). SHOULD support search by multiple report codes. (how to search by reference and how to search by token)

  4. SHALL support searching using the combination of the patient and category and date search parameters:
    • including support for these date comparators: gt,lt,ge,le
    • including optional support for AND search on date (e.g.date=[date]&date=[date]]&...)

    GET [base]/DiagnosticReport?patient={Type/}[id]&category=http://terminology.hl7.org/CodeSystem/v2-0074|LAB&date={gt|lt|ge|le}[date]{&date={gt|lt|ge|le}[date]&...}

    Example:

    1. GET [base]/DiagnosticReport?patient=f201&category=http://terminology.hl7.org/CodeSystem/v2-0074|LAB&date=ge2010-01-14T00:00:00Z

    Implementation Notes: Fetches a bundle of all DiagnosticReport resources for the specified patient and date and a category code = LAB (how to search by reference and how to search by token and how to search by date)

Optional Search Parameters:

The following search parameter combinations SHOULD be supported:

  1. SHOULD support searching using the combination of the patient and status search parameters:
    • including support for OR search on status (e.g.status={system|}[code],{system|}[code],...)

    GET [base]/DiagnosticReport?patient={Type/}[id]&status={system|}[code]{,{system|}[code],...}

    Example:

    1. GET [base]/DiagnosticReport?patient=1137192&status=completed

    Implementation Notes: Fetches a bundle of all DiagnosticReport resources for the specified patient and status (how to search by reference and how to search by token)

  2. SHOULD support searching using the combination of the patient and code and date search parameters:
    • including optional support for OR search on code (e.g.code={system|}[code],{system|}[code],...)
    • including support for these date comparators: gt,lt,ge,le
    • including optional support for AND search on date (e.g.date=[date]&date=[date]]&...)

    GET [base]/DiagnosticReport?patient={Type/}[id]&code={system|}[code]{,{system|}[code],...}&date={gt|lt|ge|le}[date]{&date={gt|lt|ge|le}[date]&...}

    Example:

    1. GET [base]/DiagnosticReport?patient=f201&code=http://loinc.org|24323-8&date=ge2019-01-14T00:00:00Z

    Implementation Notes: Fetches a bundle of all DiagnosticReport resources for the specified patient and date and report code(s). SHOULD support search by multiple report codes. (how to search by reference and how to search by token and how to search by date)

  3. SHOULD support searching using the combination of the patient and category and _lastUpdated search parameters:
    • including support for these _lastUpdated comparators: gt,lt,ge,le
    • including optional support for AND search on _lastUpdated (e.g._lastUpdated=[date]&_lastUpdated=[date]]&...)

    GET [base]/DiagnosticReport?patient={Type/}[id]&category={system|}[code]&_lastUpdated={gt|lt|ge|le}[date]{&_lastUpdated={gt|lt|ge|le}[date]&...}

    Example:

    1. GET [base]/DiagnosticReport?patient=f201&category=http://terminology.hl7.org/CodeSystem/v2-0074|LAB&_lastUpdated=ge2010-01-14T00:00:00Z

    Implementation Notes: Fetches a bundle of all DiagnosticReport resources for the specified patient and a category code = LAB and _lastUpdated. See the IE Core General Guidance page for Searching Using lastUpdated. (how to search by reference and how to search by token and how to search by date)
