This profile sets minimum expectations for a Specimen resource to record, search, and fetch specimens associated with a patient. It is based on the AU Base Specimen profile and identifies the additional mandatory core elements, extensions, vocabularies and value sets that SHALL be present in the Specimen when conforming to this profile. It provides the floor for standards development for specific uses cases in an Australian context.
The following are example usage scenarios for this profile:
A resource conforming to this profile:
No equivalent International Patient Access profile.
Conformance in reverse is not guaranteed, i.e. a resource conforming to International Patient Summary or US Core MAY NOT conform to AU Core.
Specimen.collection.collectedDateTime or Specimen.collection.collectedPeriod.Usage:
Description of Profiles, Differentials, Snapshots and how the different presentations work.

Summary

Structures
This structure refers to these other structures:
Maturity: 0
Other representations of profile: CSV, Excel, Schematron
Below is an overview of the mandatory and optional search parameters and combined search parameters. FHIR search operations and the syntax used to describe the interactions is described here.
Any search parameter defined in FHIR may be ‘allowed’ by the system unless explicitly marked as “SHALL NOT”. A few items are marked as MAY in this implementation guide to highlight their potential relevance.
| Parameter(s) | Conformance | Type(s) | Requirements (when used alone or in combination) |
|---|---|---|---|
| patient | SHALL | reference |
The client SHALL provide at least an id value and MAY provide both the Type and id values. The server SHALL support both. |
| _id | SHOULD | token |
|
| patient.identifier | SHOULD | reference.token |
The client SHALL provide both the system and code values. The server SHALL support both. The client SHOULD support search using IHI, Medicare Number, and DVA Number identifiers as defined in the AU Core Patient profile. The server SHOULD support search using the using IHI, Medicare Number, and DVA Number identifiers as defined in the AU Core Patient profile. |
The following search parameters and search parameter combinations SHALL be supported:
patient search parameter:
_revinclude parameters: Provenance:targetpatient.identifier (e.g. patient.identifier=[system|][code]GET [base]/Specimen?patient={Type/}[id] or optionallyGET [base]/Specimen?patient.identifier=[system|][code]
Example:
Implementation Notes: Fetches a bundle of all Specimen resources for the specified patient (how to search by reference and how to search by token)
The following search parameter combinations SHOULD be supported:
_id search parameter:
_revinclude parameters: Provenance:target
GET [base]/Specimen/[id] or GET [base]/Specimen?_id=[id]Example:
Implementation Notes: Fetches a single Specimen. (how to search by the logical id of the resource)
