Topic: ECG Profile
Pranitha Sruthi (Sep 15 2017 at 09:57):
Hi all, I have to create a profile for ECG using the resource DiagnosticReport which includes various leads (I, II, III, aVR etc), amplitudes and durations of P,Q,R, S waves, axes (P axis, QRS axis and T axis), parameters namely rate, PR interval, QRS interval and areas affected. Shall I create profiles for individual leads using the resource 'Observation'and add the parameters namely P wave amplitude, P wave duration, Q wave amplitude and duration as the components for the respective leads and create valuesets for normal ST , normal T, ST segment elevation and depression? Shall I also create extensions namely levels of exertion, confounding factors, tilt and comparison with previous ECG report? Thank you

Right now the best we have for EKGs and other sort of time-sequencing observation is an Observation with a value expressed using the SampledData data type. However, consensus seems to be that data type is insufficient, so there's work going on to replace it.

@Pranitha Sruthi check with @Brian Nantz on ECG.
