Full metadata Subscription (FSUB) Profile Proposal for 2012/13 presented to the IT Infrastructure Technical Committee Mauro Zanardini Mc Lean, December, 4 th 2012

IT Infrastructure Technical Committee FSUB - Key Elements This proposal focuses on the extension of DSUB profile Key elements: Notification of events occurred during a clinical workflowNotification of events occurred during a clinical workflow Notification of content published whose type can’t be known in advance by Notification Recipient (hospitalization etc…)Notification of content published whose type can’t be known in advance by Notification Recipient (hospitalization etc…) Notification of content specifically targeted to one Recipient.Notification of content specifically targeted to one Recipient. Address inconsistencies or lacks of DSUB profiles (e.g. constraint in using fullNotification)Address inconsistencies or lacks of DSUB profiles (e.g. constraint in using fullNotification)

IT Infrastructure Technical Committee Why it is necessary to extend DSUB: DSUB is not implemented in a wide way, probably because it is focused on a restricted set of use-cases.DSUB is not implemented in a wide way, probably because it is focused on a restricted set of use-cases. DSUB has built a powerful notification infrastructure, that can be used to increase the process of digitalization reaching a more efficient access to the clinical content.DSUB has built a powerful notification infrastructure, that can be used to increase the process of digitalization reaching a more efficient access to the clinical content.

IT Infrastructure Technical Committee Alignment with IHE purpose: The extension grants backward compatibility with DSUB’s products.The extension grants backward compatibility with DSUB’s products.

Many other domains (PCC, RAD, PHARACY) have developed Workflow Definition profiles with the idea that DSUB’s notification system could be applied. ITI has to provide an instrument to fix this lack.Many other domains (PCC, RAD, PHARACY) have developed Workflow Definition profiles with the idea that DSUB’s notification system could be applied.

IT Infrastructure Technical Committee Use Case 1: clinical workflow Many use-case (each workflow that can be managed using XDW), same functionalities needed: During a clinical workflow, actors involved would like to be acknowledged for the specific workflow they belong to (notify in accordance to Workflow fixed reference).During a clinical workflow, actors involved would like to be acknowledged for the specific workflow they belong to (notify in accordance to Workflow fixed reference). A clinician would like to understand instantly which is the workflow that has been updated (self-consistent notification).A clinician would like to understand instantly which is the workflow that has been updated (self-consistent notification). Notification system can be used to update the set of actors involved in the workflow (coupling between WS-HumanTask notification system and DSUB).Notification system can be used to update the set of actors involved in the workflow (coupling between WS-HumanTask notification system and DSUB).

IT Infrastructure Technical Committee Use Case 2: laboratory Report production, hospitalization, etc… Other use-cases requires that a notification has to be sent to a specific Recipient identified by the Source of clinical document: Laboratory Report: the requester ask for a result, but in many case what he can request is different from the test performed by the laboratory (the source identifies the intendedRecipient of the content).Laboratory Report: the requester ask for a result, but in many case what he can request is different from the test performed by the laboratory (the source identifies the intendedRecipient of the content). Report produced without the request of the GP: many processes requires the uknowledgment of the GP, but he is not involved in the process as requester (hospitalization)Report produced without the request of the GP: many processes requires the uknowledgment of the GP, but he is not involved in the process as requester (hospitalization)

IT Infrastructure Technical Committee Use Case 3: prolonged patient hospitalization Many times all clinical information produced during an hospitalization are collected using a folder: Clinician involved can’t define in advance the type of content produced: the subscribtion of documentEntry metadata are not useful.Clinician involved can’t define in advance the type of content produced: the subscribtion of documentEntry metadata are not useful. Some clinician can only put inside a folder the reference to other documents already published: this action has to be notified as like as a new pubblicationSome clinician can only put inside a folder the reference to other documents already published: this action has to be notified as like as a new pubblication

IT Infrastructure Technical Committee Simple Technical Approach Exension of the filter expression: now DSUB profile allows to create subscriptions only based on findDocuments queryExension of the filter expression: now DSUB profile allows to create subscriptions only based on findDocuments query Changes affect: Actors: Document Metadata Subscriber, Document Metadata Notification Broker Transactions: Document Metadata Notify, Document Metadata Subscribe Purpose: implementing subscriptions not based on query (content defined in ITI-18 transaction) but based on metadata. The subscription has to use the query sintax but the filter expression can be created using any combination of metadata.

IT Infrastructure Technical Committee Simple Technical Approach Allows different notification payloads: the payload is defined by the topicExpression tag. DSUB now define only two values for this tag: ihe:MinimalDocumentEntry, ihe:FullDocumentEntry.Allows different notification payloads: the payload is defined by the topicExpression tag. DSUB now define only two values for this tag: ihe:MinimalDocumentEntry, ihe:FullDocumentEntry. Changes affect: Actors: Document Metadata Notification Broker, Document Metadata Notification Recipient Transactions: Document Metadata Notify Purpose: Allows the delivery of other objects then documents. Folders or submissions can contain information more useful in some cases (folderId, sourceId, intendedRecipient…).

IT Infrastructure Technical Committee Effort Estimates The work effort (in term of documentation) for profiling the FSUB is SMALL because there aren’t new transactions and the new actor, and the template of DSUB can be used for the extension.The work effort (in term of documentation) for profiling the FSUB is SMALL because there aren’t new transactions and the new actor, and the template of DSUB can be used for the extension.
