ACT-NOW Implementation Guide
0.5.0 - ci-build
ACT-NOW Implementation Guide, published by Te aho o te kahu - Cancer Control Agency. This guide is not an authorized publication; it is the continuous build for version 0.5.0 built by the FHIR (HL7® FHIR® Standard) CI Build. This version is based on the current content of https://github.com/davidhay25/actnow/ and changes regularly. See the Directory of published versions

This page provides a list of the FHIR artifacts defined as part of this implementation guide.
The following artifacts define the specific capabilities that different types of systems are expected to have in order to comply with this implementation guide. Systems conforming to this implementation guide are expected to declare conformance to one or more of the following capability statements.
CapabilityStatement representing the server requirements for a FHIR server |
Server capability statement |
These define the properties by which a RESTful server can be searched. They can also be used for sorting and including related resources.
an-supporting-info |
Searches for supportingInfo references |
These define constraints on FHIR resources for systems conforming to this implementation guide.
ACT-NOW diagnosis |
The primary diagnosis for this cancer. Can have an evidence.detail reference to an Observation that has the histology and a stage.assessment reference to the TNM Observation staging (clinical and pathological) |
ACT-NOW medication administration |
ACT-NOW medication administration. These are medications that were actually administered. |
ACT-NOW medication request |
ACT-NOW medication request. These are prescriptions given to the patient. |

Pathological M-score |
An observation that represents the pathological 'M' score (pM) which measures distant metastases |
Pathological N-score |
An observation that represents the pathological 'N' score (pN) which measures local lymph node involvement. |
Pathological T-score |
An observation that represents the pathological 'T' score (pT) which measures tumour size |
Pathological TNM group score |
An observation that represents the pathological TNM (pTNM) group score |
