Condition

Nic Dobbins edited this page Aug 18, 2020 · 1 revision

Conditions refer to a disease or medical condition. In terms of the Electronic Health Record, Condition should be understood in this context as largely synonymous with a diagnosis or problem list item.

Trigger

Same as the Condition-Name.

Examples

Example of 'Condition' of ischemic stroke, specifying diagnosis type (discharge) and code (ICD10: I63).

Example of 'Condition' as diagnosis of Atopic Dermatitis.

Example of 'Condition' as diagnosis of substance abuse. Note that if no verb related to diagnosis is present, the 'Condition' span should be the same as the 'Condition-Name'.

Arguments

  • Code- An optional Condition-Code, typically an ICD10 code.
  • Duration - An Equality Comparison representing a duration of time that the Condition occurred.
  • Name - A Condition-Name. This should be the span that contains the actual condition in question.
  • Minimum-Count - An Equality Comparison representing the minimum number of times a Condition must occur, e.g., "... admitted for stroke at least twice in the past year".
  • Location - The physical Location a Condition was diagnosed in (typically a clinic or hospital) not anatomical.
  • Polarity - The Condition Polarity.
  • Provider - The Provider giving a diagnosis of the Condition.
  • Severity - The Severity of the Condition.
  • Stage - An Equality Comparison indicating the stage or grade of a Condition.
  • Temporality - An Equality Comparison period the Condition occurred or was diagnosed in.
  • Type - A Condition-Type. This is the domain or context in which the condition was diagnosed. In this sense the type is not related to anatomical structure but rather data provenance. Allowed types are:
    • admitting
    • discharge
    • problem-list
