    • Type: Change Request
    • Resolution: Not Persuasive
    • Priority: Medium
    • FHIR Core (FHIR)
    • DSTU1 [deprecated]
    • Clinical Decision Support
    • DeviceRequest (was DeviceUseRequest)
    • 5.13
    • Hide

      The intent of the resource is to allow modeling of a device use request, whether it comes from a patient, clinician, decision support system, or other source.

      Note that the resource name and more generally the pattern for representation of status within a workflow will likely be changed by the discussion during DSTU 2.1 regarding workflow patterns in FHIR.

      Comment:

      The current name implies request/response witch is not applicable here. This resource should be supported by systems that accept "guidance" from a CDSS. This guidance in intended for a clinician and not a request to the system - no response is needed. The clinician may decide to order/request a device for patient based on this guidance.
