Resource Profile: CH LAB-Report Observation Results: eGFR - MDRD Profile for male and female Patients, components for blacks and non-blacks

Renal function can be determined by laboratory measurement of serum creatinine, from which the estimated glomerular (eGFR_MDMR) filtration rate can be calculated. Further input parameters are age, race and gender.
Note: The MDRD equation is hardly used any more and is replaced by the CKD-EPI equation.
GFR Calculators:

Usage:

• Examples for this Resource Profile: Observation/Observation-eGFR-MDRD-female and Observation/Observation-eGFR-MDRD-male

eu-lab-1	error	Observation	If observation status is other then "registered" or "cancelled", at least one of these Observation elements shall be provided: "value", "dataAbsentReason", "hasMember" or "component" : (status in ('registered'|'cancelled')) or value.exists() or hasMember.exists() or component.exists() or dataAbsentReason.exists()
eu-lab-2	error	Observation	If observation has components and observation status is other then "registered" or "cancelled", at least one of these Observation.component elements shall be provided: "value" or "dataAbsentReason" : component.exists() implies (status in ('registered'|'cancelled')) or component.value.exists() or component.dataAbsentReason.exists()
ext-1	error	**ALL** extensions	Must have either extensions or value[x], not both : extension.exists() != value.exists()
obs-3	error	Observation.referenceRange	Must have at least a low or a high or text : low.exists() or high.exists() or text.exists()
obs-6	error	Observation	dataAbsentReason SHALL only be present if Observation.value[x] is not present : dataAbsentReason.empty() or value.empty()
obs-7	error	Observation	If Observation.code is the same as an Observation.component.code then the value element associated with the code SHALL NOT be present : value.empty() or component.code.where(coding.intersect(%resource.code.coding).exists()).empty()
qty-3	error	Observation.value[x]:valueQuantity, Observation.component.value[x]:valueQuantity, Observation.component:blacks.value[x]:valueQuantity, Observation.component:non-blacks.value[x]:valueQuantity	If a code for the unit is present, the system SHALL also be present : code.empty() or system.exists()
rat-1	error	Observation.value[x]:valueRatio, Observation.component.value[x]:valueRatio, Observation.component:blacks.value[x]:valueRatio, Observation.component:non-blacks.value[x]:valueRatio	Numerator and denominator SHALL both be present, or both are absent. If both are absent, there SHALL be some extension present : (numerator.empty() xor denominator.exists()) and (numerator.exists() or extension.exists())
rng-2	error	Observation.value[x]:valueRange, Observation.component.value[x]:valueRange, Observation.component:blacks.value[x]:valueRange, Observation.component:non-blacks.value[x]:valueRange	If present, low SHALL have a lower value than high : low.empty() or high.empty() or (low <= high)

Structures

This structure refers to these other structures:

• Quantity (Eu Lab) (http://hl7.eu/fhir/laboratory/StructureDefinition/Quantity-eu-lab)

Slices

This structure defines the following Slices:

• The element 1 is sliced based on the value of Observation.component (Closed)
