<a href="http://loinc.org/usage">http://loinc.org/usage</a>

  1. S. Updates
    1. NA connectahon is planned for Jan 2016 – featuring LAW and XD-LAB
    2. Had virtual connectathon for LAW in July 2015
  2. Harmonization of LAB TF and US Implementation Guides
    1. On HL7 side - The following lab related standards have been published:
      1. HL7 V2.8.2: <a href="http://www.hl7.org/implement/standards/product_brief.cfm?product_id=403">http://www.hl7.org/implement/standards/product_brief.cfm?product_id=403</a>
      2. LRI Release 1, DSTU R2: <a href="http://www.hl7.org/implement/standards/product_brief.cfm?product_id=279">http://www.hl7.org/implement/standards/product_brief.cfm?product_id=279</a>
  1. Valueset companion document for all Lab guides – can be updated asynchronously from the specification – following the value set definition requirements document: <a href="http://www.hl7.org/implement/standards/product_brief.cfm?product_id=413">http://www.hl7.org/implement/standards/product_brief.cfm?product_id=413</a>
  2. V2.9 is scheduled for May 2016 ballot
  1. Meaningful Use update: No Lab profiles named in MU stage 3, except ELR R1 (Public Health reporting)
  2. IHE – HL7 guide harmonization update:
    1. The PSS for this project is ready for Technical Steering Committee (TSC) at HL7, so project can officially start – no analytical progress yet
  3. Structured Data Capture (SDC) Profile Discussion
    1. Why not use the SDC to combine the XD-LAB and the APSR to collect the data?
      1. It is possible
      2. SDC has a large backing in the US
  • SDC is building in FHIR and IHE based RDF
  1. Need to look at QRPH as a first step
    1. Hold a joint call (Raj will lead) – how can PaLM domain utilize SDC?
    2. QRPH meets in Oak Brook, Illinois-can we tie this into IHE PaLM October 2016 F2F?
  2. Merger: Detailed Operations
    1. Need to create new wiki page of the merged domains once approved by the IHE Board
    2. Old domains will still be kept with a “sticker” deprecated and superseded by PaLM
    3. Create a new google group for the new domain - folks will have to re-apply to join the new PaLM google group
    4. Will keep “LAB“ for transaction naming
    5. Francois will create spreadsheet of tasks (checklist) and hand over to Mary and Carolyn
  3. LAW CPs-review of options
    1. Drop option declaration out of the MSH-21
    2. Have to pick one of the 4 query types – every query would be bidirectional - rename LAW_BIDIR to LAW_QUERY_WOS
  4. Reengineering of APSR with Art Décor Discussion
    1. Art Décor has data dictionary – Vocabulary and templates
    2. Value sets currently only supports HL7 codes as well as TNM values
    3. Conditional usage can be created but has to be done at the time of design – bundle observations into the organizer
    4. Need to create a new governance group to create the PSR for the PaLM domain – in order to create this as a new project
    5. At this time Art Décor is still very CDA based – will need to investigate if Art Décor can support the rules around data elements

Wednesday, 21 October 2015

  1. Merger Wrap-up
    1. Name of new merged domain to be PaLM (Pathology and Laboratory Medicine). Approved unanimously on October 21.
    2. Prefix to be used for all transactions will remain “LAB”. Approved unanimously on October 20.
    3. Go-live date for new domain is 1 January 2016 (04 January 2016 is the following Monday)
    4. IHE AP + Lab teleconference call date change - will now be held on the 2nd Wednesday of every month from 0800 -1000 (central time zone)(changed from Tuesday)
      1. First hour = group discussions
      2. Second hour = technical discussions
    5. Next F2F is tentative for Berlin, Germany
      1. May 23-25, 2016
      2. Providing they can accommodate a room for PaLM (20 people not counting joint session)
  • May 25 – May 28 is the Pathologist Conference (PaLM joint session with DICOM for at least 1.5 hours)
  1. Alternate locations: Belgium or Sausalito
  1. Chicago in the fall – check the dates when QRPH is meeting (QRPH planning seems to meet in October, technical in November)
  1. LCC Updates
    1. Conceptually this profile is completed, but base standard modifications have not been created
    2. Informatics Committee hopes to have funds to hire consultant to get documentation finished
    3. Jim has worked with representatives with Cerner and Epic – Raj will get contacts from Jim
    4. HL7 v2.9 will be balloted in May 2016, so CRs should be in ASAP (final text of the base standard is needed by March 27)
  2. Update on Harmonization between IHE LTW and LCSD and Lab US realm guides (EDOS, LOI LRI, ELR)
    1. Ideally have the US Lab guides be more constraint profiles of the IHE profiles
    2. Should be approved by HL7 as a gap analysis projectnext week
    3. Riki working on this - François will help with the analysis in 2016
  3. Art Décor Discussion
    1. APSR publication of release 2 documentation has been migrated into Art Décor by Gunter (in German)
    2. ELGA is using Art Décor for schematron development as is the French XD-Lab report (DMP)
    3. IHE needs to show benefit of this profile to get vendor involvement – describe the first use case: cancer registry reporting, clinical trials
    4. Create a collaboration with SDC to avoid creating many versions of the same template
  4. LAW CPs #241 - #245
    1. OG datatype is from v2.8.2 – need to add that as a note
    2. Change OG.4 to RE or make X – need to have a vendor to provide a use case for OG.4
    3. Seems duplicative info in SAC-29 and TCD-4 – remove SAC-29, since we want to support TCD - TCD allows specification of “already diluted in TCD-4” as well as to be diluted in TCD-2. Confirm with Dmytro or Cornelia (Roche)
    4. PV1-3 update to show that PV1-3.1 is X and we are using PV1-3.2
    5. OBX-2 is still using HL70125 in published version of v2.8.2, so need to update LAW respectively
  5. LSH Discussion - formatting of the figures in the LSH supplement
    1. Terminology to use to describe the steps in LSH – events
    2. LSH Actor diagram – remove the up-arrow on the command response step
    3. In 3.4.x describe what the profile actually does: it supports the interactions between the specimen transport system and specimen processing devices (includes analyzer – will be in the glossary) to enable the handoff between the actors in support of fully automated laboratory processes
    4. Update the transaction numbers to LAB and start with 40 etc. LSH-1 = LAB-40, LSH-2 = LAB-41, LSH-3 = LAB-42
    5. Discuss on technical call in December after at least 1 week time for group to review
