18.8.133.1 PTH - Field Definitions (12.4.3.0)

18.8.133.2 PTH-1 Action Code (ID) 00816 (12.4.3.1)

Definition: This field reveals the intent of the message. Refer to HL7 Table 0287 - Problem/Goal Action Code in Chapter 2C, Code Tables, for valid values.

18.8.133.3 PTH-2 Pathway ID (CWE) 01207 (12.4.3.2)

Definition: This field contains the pathway master data identifier associated with the referenced problem or goal. Examples: open heart pathway, new diabetic, total hip replace.

18.8.133.4 PTH-3 Pathway Instance ID (EI) 01208 (12.4.3.3)

Definition: This field contains a value generated by the originating application that represents an associated order placer group number, or other unique identifier assigned to the grouping of pathway directives.

Note: It is required that this value remain unique over time. This instance ID identifies a specific instance for a specific patient and is unique across all patients. See entity ID data type description in Chapter 2.

18.8.133.5 PTH-4 Pathway Established Date/Time (DTM) 01209 (12.4.3.4)

Definition: This field contains the identification of the event time for the current pathway record.

18.8.133.6 PTH-5 Pathway Life Cycle Status (CWE) 01210 (12.4.3.5)

Definition: This field contains an application-specific set of state identifiers (e.g., Active, Suspended, Complete, Canceled, Delayed, Scheduled).

18.8.133.7 PTH-6 Change Pathway Life Cycle Status Date/Time (DTM) 01211 (12.4.3.6)

Definition: This field contains the date/time when pathway has been modified or deactivated. (Marked as conditional - must be filled in if trigger event is update or terminate pathway.)

18.8.133.8 PTH-7 Mood Code (CNE) 02239 (12.4.3.7)

Definition: This field indicates the Mood of the Pathway. It allows expression of the context of the Pathway.

Note: As Mood Code changes the meaning of the segment it must only be used in new messages as of v2.6.

Refer to HL7 Table 0725 - Mood Codes in Chapter 2C, Code Tables, for allowed values.
