Development Introduction

Representing the Different Clinical Areas

The data model for the whole GP record is illustrated in the diagram below:

Logical Model

In the diagram each of the boxes with a blue outline represents a clinical area. These each contain 1 or more boxes representing FHIR® resources. The FHIR resource boxes are colour coded:

  • Green - are resources that are defined for use in this version of the specification

  • Blue - are resources that have yet to have their usage defined

The clinical areas that are contained in the larger box on the right-hand side, labelled ‘Clinical Item’, are the clinical areas in which pieces of clinical information are held. The clinical areas on the left of the diagram will be used to model the way the clinical items are viewed, organised and managed.

Linkages

It is also apparent in the diagram that many of the resources are linked together. Details of how these linkages exist and will be managed can be found on the Linkages page.

Clinical Areas

The schema for each clinical area are defined in the Clinical Areas pages.
