CDS hooks currently does not allow a CDS Service to act on a change in the patients clinical record.
What would trigger such hook? A change to a resource in the Patients compartment?
What context elements should such hook contain?

CDS Hooks is about hooking into a provider workflow UX; if you are interested in receiving notifications about changes to data, wouldn't subscriptions fit the bill better?

Josh, good suggestion, a hook design based on Subscriptions would be very flexible, maybe a little bit too much.
The intend of the hook(s) I would like to explore are workflow UX events where the provider changes the clinical record. E.g. add a condition, observation, risk assessment, ...
So far as I see this is currently not covered by the current hooks.

Thanks, that clarifies the concept for me. It's not about whether the record changed but rather whether the current user has taken a step to change the record. That would make sense as a new hook definition from my perspective.

Is there overlap with FHIRcast here?

Not directly. The workflow actions might trigger FHIRcast events but I do not see FHIRcast dependencies for such hook(s).
