CA Baseline Tobacco Smoking Status Profile

This profile sets minimum expectations for the Procedure resource to record, search and fetch current or historical procedures performed on or for a patient. It identifies which elements and value sets SHALL be present in the resource when using this profile.

This profile defines localization concepts for use in an Canadian context.

Mandatory Data Elements

All elements or attributes defined in FHIR have cardinality as part of their definition - a minimum number of required appearances and a maximum number.

Most elements in FHIR specification have a minimum cardinality of 0, which means that they may be missing from a resource when it is exchanged between systems.

Required elements:

• status specifying the state of the procedure (required in the base specification)
• code to classify the procedure that is performed
• reference to a subject
• date procedure was performed

Must Support Data Elements

Some elements are labeled as MustSupport meaning that implementations that produce or consume resources SHALL provide "support" for the element in some meaningful way (see Must Support definition).

Following elements are marked as Must Support in the Procedure profile to aid record matching in databases with many pediatric records.

Must Support elements:

• status
• code
• reference to a subject
• performed date
• body site

Usage Note

This Procedure profile is used to provide summary information about the occurrence of current or historical procedures performed on or for a patient, and is not intended to provide real-time snapshots of a procedure as it unfolds. Examples include surgical procedures, diagnostic procedures, endoscopic procedures, biopsies, counseling, physiotherapy, personal support services, adult day care services, non-emergency transportation, home modification, exercise and so on.

A slice for absentOrUnknownProcedure comes from the IPS-UV specification and has been socialized in the profile as a way to represent a standard set of codes for identifying absent or unknown procedures. While the profile expects that a procedure.code be present (cardinality of 1..1) the use of the slice is entirely optional.
