1、Designation: E 1384 07An American National StandardStandard Practice forContent and Structure of the Electronic Health Record(EHR)1This standard is issued under the fixed designation E 1384; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or, in the case of re
2、vision, the year of last revision. A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon (e) indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1. Scope*1.1 This practice covers all types of healthcare services,including those given in ambulatory care,
3、hospitals, nursinghomes, skilled nursing facilities, home healthcare, and spe-cialty care environments. They apply both to short termcontacts (for example, emergency rooms and emergency medi-cal service units) and long term contacts (primary care physi-cians with long term patients). The vocabulary
4、aims to encom-pass the continuum of care through all delivery models. Thispractice defines the persistent data needed to support ElectronicHealth Record system functionality.1.2 This practice has four purposes:1.2.1 Identify the content and logical data structure andorganization of an Electronic Hea
5、lth Record (EHR) consistentwith currently acknowledged patient record content. Therecord carries all health related information about a person overtime. It may include history and physical, laboratory tests,diagnostic reports, orders and treatments documentation, pa-tient identifying information, le
6、gal permissions, and so on. Thecontent is presented and described as data elements or asclinical documents. This standard is consistent with eXtensibleMarkup Language (XML). See Document Type Definition(DTD) 2.1 and W3CXML Schema 1.01.2.2 Explain the relationship of data coming from diversesources (
7、for example, clinical laboratory information manage-ment systems, order entry systems, pharmacy informationmanagement systems, dictation systems), and other data in theElectronic Health Record as the primary repository for infor-mation from various sources.1.2.3 Provide a common vocabulary for those
8、 developing,purchasing, and implementing EHR systems.1.2.4 Provide sufficient content from which data extractscan be compiled to create unique setting “views.”1.2.5 Map the content to selected relevant biomedical andhealth informatics standards.2.
