Topic: Types of Problems

In one project, "Problem" maps to different concepts - I'm mapping these concepts to resources, and I am not sure they would all fit under "condition" or if we should create profiles on different resources.
Feedback appreciated. These are our business terms and definitions (liberally translated):
- Diagnosis Information about a disease, identified after clinical reasoning from physiological and pathological realizations
- Problem Problems that the practitioner finds noteworthy, potentially harmful or deserving further study or treatment
- Risk Problem or health situation that may call for surveillance or continuous attention
- Antecedent Information about a problem considered resolved (not family history)
- Anamnesis - conclusion from an anamnesis from another practitioner other than a physician

I can add this to the agenda of an upcoming Patient Care discussion (may not be until late July given we have a few other topics on the agenda for the next couple meetings). I'm confident that we've scoped Condition to include: Diagnosis, Problem, and Risk (provided it rises to a level of concern that warrants tracking / management) noting that Condition has a clinicalStatus (for resolved problems) and asserter (for source of information).

Patient Care reviewed these today. Patient Care doesn't endorse or expect to use those labels (bold) for #4 and #5, but we agree that Condition can be used for what is being described and defined (i.e. resolved conditions , condition that occurred following another condition, conditions asserted by non-physicians).

Thank you. We'll review the labels - maybe there are translation nuances - I'd be glad to forward suggestions for the names.
