# Alert model - EHDS Logical Information Models v0.3.0 * [**Table of Contents**](toc.md) * [**Artifacts Summary**](artifacts.md) * **Alert model** ## Logical Model: Alert model | | | | :--- | :--- | | *Official URL*:http://www.xt-ehr.eu/fhir/models/StructureDefinition/EHDSAlert | *Version*:0.3.0 | | Draft as of 2026-02-06 | *Computable Name*:EHDSAlert | A statement higlighting a fact about the patient that requires clinical attention to ensure safety and prevent adverse outcomes. Example 1: intolerance to aspirin due to gastrointestinal bleeding. Example 2: intolerance to captopril because of cough (the patient is not allergic but can't tolerate it because of persistent cough) Example 3: the patient has a rare disease that requires special treatment Example 4: Airway Alert / Difficult Intubation Example 5: Diagnoses such as malignant hyperthermia, porphyria, and bleeding disorders; special treatments like anticoagulants or immunosuppressants; implanted devices. Example 6: transplanted organs illustrate other information that has to be taken into account in a healthcare contact. Example 7: participation in a clinical trial that has to be taken into account in a healthcare contact. **Usages:** * Use this Logical Model: [Discharge Report model](StructureDefinition-EHDSDischargeReport.md) and [Patient summary model](StructureDefinition-EHDSPatientSummary.md) You can also check for [usages in the FHIR IG Statistics](https://packages2.fhir.org/xig/xtehr.eu.ehds.models|current/StructureDefinition/EHDSAlert) ### Formal Views of Profile Content [Description of Profiles, Differentials, Snapshots and how the different presentations work](http://build.fhir.org/ig/FHIR/ig-guidance/readingIgs.html#structure-definitions).   Other representations of profile: [CSV](StructureDefinition-EHDSAlert.csv), [Excel](StructureDefinition-EHDSAlert.xlsx) ## Resource Content ```json { "resourceType" : "StructureDefinition", "id" : "EHDSAlert", "url" : "http://www.xt-ehr.eu/fhir/models/StructureDefinition/EHDSAlert", "version" : "0.3.0", "name" : "EHDSAlert", "title" : "Alert model", "status" : "draft", "date" : "2026-02-06T19:33:31+01:00", "publisher" : "Xt-EHR", "contact" : [ { "name" : "Xt-EHR", "telecom" : [ { "system" : "url", "value" : "http://www.xt-ehr.eu/" } ] } ], "description" : "A statement higlighting a fact about the patient that requires clinical attention to ensure safety and prevent adverse outcomes.\nExample 1: intolerance to aspirin due to gastrointestinal bleeding.\nExample 2: intolerance to captopril because of cough (the patient is not allergic but can't tolerate it because of persistent cough)\nExample 3: the patient has a rare disease that requires special treatment\nExample 4: Airway Alert / Difficult Intubation\nExample 5: Diagnoses such as malignant hyperthermia, porphyria, and bleeding disorders;
