Description

Laboratory reports MUST contain at least one laboratory result which is declared using this element. Each laboratory result consists of code, value and interpretation of the result.

Code

For laboratory reports in Switzerland, primarly LOINC and where necessary, additional SNOMED CT codes MUST be used. At least one laboratory result for a specimen MUST thus contain a LOINC code.

Certain microbiology pathogen detection can not be uniquely identified with LOINC (e.g., Campylobacter coli). Such pathogen detection must be specified in a second observation in the same Laboratory Battery Organizer with a corresponding code from another code system (e.g., SNOMED CT).

For examinations according to the Swiss analysis list (AL), a translation element CAN be specified to establish the reference to the corresponding AL position.

Further translation elements may be added to make reference to other codes, e.g. the locally used code in the laboratory.

Value

The concrete values measured MUST be specified in observation elements as follows (data types according to HL7 CDA):

  • Text findings are declared as free text in the narrative portion of the corresponding section, and the text element MUST contain the corresponding reference to the narrative text. In this case, the observation MAY NOT contain the value element.
  • True / False values are declared using the data type BL.
  • Encoded values are declared using the data type CD.
  • Numeric results are declared using data type PQ in combination with internationally standardized units (UCUM), according to the value set.
  • Ratios are declared with data type RTO.

Interpretation

The interpretation code specifies AT LEAST whether it is a normal result or a result outside the normal range. Further interpretation codes CAN be used.

In the case of microbiological or infection-serological detection of pathogens, NO value element is PERMITTED. Instead, declare using the interpretationCode whether the pathogen was detected in the sample (POS) or not (NEG).

 CE 0 … 1

At least one interpretation of the result MUST be declared. For this purpose, a code from the HL7 Observation Interpretation vocabulary MUST be used.

Examples of normal results:

  • N: Normal

Examples of pathogen detection:

  • POS: pathogen found in the specimen
  • NEG: pathogen not found in the specimen (No evidence or no growth). Note: Negative does not necessarily imply the complete absence of the specified item.

Examples abnormal results with numeric values:

  • H: High - Above reference range
  • HH: High alert - Above reference range (critical value)
  • L: Low - Below reference range
  • LL: Low alert - Below reference range (critical value)

Examples of non-determinable results:

  • >: High off scale - Above analytical limit
  • <: Low off scale - Below analytical limit

Examples of antimicrobial susceptibility tests in microbiology:

  • S: susceptible
  • R: resistant
  • I: intermediate
  • SDD: Susceptible-dose dependent

hl7:referenceRange
 0 … 1 The reference range SHALL be specified for the range of normal values for the data types PQ and INT. The following applies:
  • Upper limit: [R]
  • Lower limit: [R]
  • interpretationCode containing code=N: [M]

The reference range CAN be omitted for other data types. If only an upper or lower limit is meaningful, the unused limit MUST be declared using nullFlavor.
