Details
This report provides functionality to comprehensively handle all medical device information associated with a patient's episode of care (EpisodeOfCare). Specifically, it groups and retrieves FHIR resources—`Device`, `DeviceUseStatement`, and `DeviceMetrics`—in a single operation. The definition supports filtering based on specific organizations or time periods, which is useful for continuous data collection and management in clinical settings. The release of this feature promotes the standardized exchange of device data in telemedicine, providing a foundational framework for building more comprehensive patient monitoring systems, relevant to Japanese healthcare IT.
