Topic: FHIR resource for TPN(Total Parental Nutrition) order in ...
Pari Paramasivam (Mar 05 2020 at 09:26):
Hi All,
Could you please advise me the right FHIR resource(preferably in DSTU2) to be used for the below scenario.
Based on the prescription from physician, pharmacist shall place an TPN(Total Parental Nutrition) order in our application.
Our application has to communicate the details of the TPN with the compounder. The TPN order details to be send to the compounder are
• Set of ingredients such as potassium, sodium, calcium, magnesium, chloride, and phosphate.
• Ingredient’s National drug code and Volume (unit).
• Ingredients shall be ordered in which compounder has to mix them .
Thank you in advance.

It's technically nutrition, which OO runs

TPN is parental so not covered by nutrition resources .... @Margaret Dittloff

MediationRequest resource should be used for TPN order. The detailed ingredients will all be represented in the Medication resource which is referenced from within the MedicationRequest resource.

You can reflect the dispensing using the MedicationDispense resource and the administration of the TPN using the MedicationAdministration. There are examples in all 3 resources on how to represent the TPN as a contained medication resource.

Thank you all.
@John Hatem , We have also thought to use MedicationRequest( MedicationOrder in DSTU2).
@Melva Peters , will go through the MedicationDispense , MedicationAdministration resources and check the possibility of using them.
