Topic: Storing a workout Observation
Dimitar (Mar 26 2018 at 08:10):
Hello, I am trying to find a way to represent the type of activity that was performed during a workout, however I cannot find the proper SNOMED or LOINC representation of a specific activity type. The goal is to map it from HealthKit or Google Fit activity constants.

@Pascal Pfiffner have you looked at this?

check out Simplifier profiles. There is Finnish work on this.

@Eric Haas Thanks, I did check out their profile, however I did not find within the fitness profile where they specify the precise activity type performed like running, walking or swimming - just physical activity.

@Harri Honko ?

@Dimitar & @Eric Haas we're still to introduce actual workout/exercise profiles that would have package like [activity type, starttime, stoptime, HRavg, HRmax, maybe MET value] - but for now we only report in Finnish PHR fitness profiles moderate to vigorous PA (MET>3) minutes over a period (day or week). For the first we had to use own fitness codesystem, the latter has a LOINC code. I recall seeing a fairly thorough list of activity types somewhere in LOINC. Hmm.

We have looked into this as part of C3-PRO (patient reported outcomes research) and we're returning activity data as QuestionnaireResponse resources. https://github.com/C3-PRO/c3-pro-ios-framework/tree/master/Sources/HealthKit

Hello everyone, are there already newer attempts to represent physical workouts with FHIR? I know that the Finnish PHR already exists, but I would like to represent information that goes far beyond that (more information). In a first attempt I created a “network” of the resources Task, Observation, Device (for the equipment that is used during the workout), Goal, List and Patient because these resources are able to represent a lot of information like repetitions, the equipment that is going to be used, the goal of a workout, duration of a workout, intensity of a workout, distance during running and so on... Does anyone know a more simple/leaner representation? Are there any projects, working-groups, or other examples of representing a workout?
