Key Players
Details
This document defines the 'Prior Menses Date' resource profile as part of the Mobile Antepartum Summary (mAPS), utilizing the FHIR R4 standard. This information is crucial for monitoring pregnancy progress and is structured based on the Observation resource. Technically, it leverages the `Observation` resource framework, defining data types using elements such as 'status,' 'code,' 'subject,' and 'effective.' By referencing standardized terminologies like SNOMED CT (21840007) and LOINC, it ensures semantic integrity of the data. This standardization allows time-series data, such as menstrual cycle information in obstetrics, to be exchanged accurately and uniformly between different Electronic Health Record systems, significantly contributing to strengthening medical interoperability in Japan.
