CH IPS (R4)
1.0.0-ci-build - ci-build Switzerland flag

CH IPS (R4), published by HL7 Switzerland. This guide is not an authorized publication; it is the continuous build for version 1.0.0-ci-build built by the FHIR (HL7® FHIR® Standard) CI Build. This version is based on the current content of https://github.com/hl7ch/ch-ips/ and changes regularly. See the Directory of published versions

Narrative Content

The CH IPS requirements for narrative content are based on the FHIR Clinical Documents and HL7 IPS-UV guidance.

Recommendations

FHIR Clinical Documents

Human readability and rendering FHIR Clinical Documents:
The Composition resource is special in that it can convey narrative in both Composition.text and Composition.section.text. This IG recommends that document metadata be conveyed in Composition.text whereas attested narrative be conveyed in Composition.section.text.

HL7 IPS-UV

Narrative Content Guidance:
While no constraints are implemented, early implementers have recommended that IPS documents not duplicate the content contained in Composition.section.text (which is required) in the Composition.text.

Implementers Feedback

Please consider also the HL7 IPS-UV STU Note:

While a globally consistent practice has not been identified, IPS encourages implementers to review emerging best practices and guidelines regarding narrative text that are being implemented in participating nations (e.g., The Netherlands) and discussed in the FHIR Community.

Ongoing FHIR implementations will influence future guidance, such as the FHIR Clinical Document Implementation Guide, about the content and display of narrative content, which is required in the IPS Composition. We encourage implementers to monitor this topic and provide feedback through HL7 engagement, issue logging, and community discussion.

Please add your feedback on this topic for CH IPS via the 'Propose a change'-link in the footer of the page.

The following are snippets for Composition.text and Composition.section.text from the UC 1.1: Swiss IPS Document example:
