HL7 Europe Patient Summary
1.0.0-ballot - ci-build 150

This page is part of the HL7 Europe European Patient Summary (v1.0.0-ballot: STU 1 Ballot 1) based on FHIR (HL7® FHIR® Standard) R4. This is the current published version in its permanent home (it will always be available at this URL). For a full list of available versions, see the Directory of published versions

EHDSLaboratoryObservation Mapping

EHDSLaboratoryObservation -> MedicalTestResultEuCore
Ongoing alignment: The models are expected to continue evolving, with updates incorporated into this Implementation Guide to maintain alignment with the EHDS Implementing Acts.
Yellow row/cells: In this ballot publication, some row/cells of the mapping table have been left in yellow to indicate areas requiring further review or refinement; including feedback from the Xt-EHR joint action (see note above). These highlights will be addressed in subsequent updates to ensure accuracy and completeness of the mappings.

EHDSLaboratoryObservation -> MedicalTestResultEuCore

This page explains how conceptual elements from the EHDS logical model are expressed in the corresponding FHIR Observation profile or type used by this Implementation Guide.

Mapping Context

Element Relation Resource Element Notes
header related-to Observation . Dataset-level; not usually carried in Observation as-is.
header.subject equivalent Observation subject Reference to Patient (or other allowed subject types).
header.identifier equivalent Observation identifier Copy over all identifiers if multiple.
header.author[x] no-map Observation Observation lacks a dedicated recorder.
header.date equivalent Observation issued
