Candidate release of the CR related to the SET (Specimen Event Tracking) project. (SET) profile is a project of the IHE PaLM Technical committee that was started in 2016. The purpose of this new profile of the PaLM domain is to define a series of use cases and all related events relevant to be tracked, when one or more macro operations involving a specimen occur (i.e., container preparation, collection, movement from one facility to another one, archiving, and so on)  .

All the new proposed structures have been discussed since 2019 in the HL7 00 group calls, and are now in a candidate release for voting. The candidate release of the CR document is in attachment, together with a spreadsheet summarizing all the new trigger events and messages, and providing some filling things message examples.
