      Procedure as a resource is used in multiple contexts. ?It captures high-level summary information (Patient had an appendectomy on Jan 7th), non-surgical procedures (physio, education, etc) as well as detailed surgical progress. ?Therefore, those elements that are specific to detailed surgical progress don't fall within the 80% for the overall resource. ?We will create a common extension that covers more detailed statuses like those listed below. ?We will also schedule the definition of a Profile for detailed procedure progress (e.g. surgical procedures), though this won't be part of DSTU 2.

      Existing Wording: Procedure.status - A code specifying the state of the procedure record. Generally this will be in-progress or completed state.

      Comment:

      Procedure status: over simplifying. There are lots more possible steps in surgical procedures. in OR, Prepped, Anesthesia induced, opened, (skin) closed to recovery recovery, clear anesthesia. etc. Don't think you have to define them now, but patients' families want to and those who are tracking efficiencies want to know the status at a more detailed level.
