Stress Testing Workflow
This integration profile defines ordering and collecting multi-modality data during diagnostic Stress testing procedures
Summary
One Paragraph Description
The Stress Profile defines a means of ordering and performing cardiac stress tests involving stress ECG, echocardiographic, and/or nuclear imaging components. The profile is aligned with the Actors and Transactions of the Echocardiography Workflow and Scheduled Workflow Integration Profiles, so that a common infrastructure can be used in an integrated manner.
<See Help - Tips and Tricks for details on inserting an image/graphic.>
Benefits
<List the key benefits the profile provides (e.g. error reduction, increased throughput) and how they come about (e.g. SWF reduces patient errors due to mistyped demographics at the modality by transfering demographics electronically from the Order Filler). Consider using a bullet list for readability>
Details
The Stress Testing Workflow Integration Profile describes the workflow associated with cardiac stress test procedures. This profile deals with patient identifiers, orders, scheduling, status reporting, multi-stage exams, and data storage. It specifies the scheduling and coordination of procedure data across a variety of imaging, ECG acquisition, measurement, and analysis systems, and its reliable storage in an archive from where it is available to support subsequent workflow steps, such as reporting.
This profile has much in common with the IHE Radiology Scheduled Workflow and Patient Information Reconciliation Integration Profiles, but deals more explicitly with the multi-modality coordination, and with stress-specific data requirements.
Systems Affected
<List (in user terms) the types of systems they might expect to have implemented actors from this profile, e.g. RIS, PACS, HIS, CAD Workstation, etc. and for each, how it would participate.>
- PACS systems may store, manage, and/or display Evidence Documents.
- Display systems may query, retrieve and display Evidence Documents.
- Reporting workstations may retrieve, process and include details from Evidence Documents in reports

- Reporting Workflow [RWF] may use Evidence Documents as inputs to the reporting process.
- Simple Image & Numeric Reports [SINR] may include data copied from Evidence Documents.
- Cross-enterprise Document Sharing for Imaging [XDS-I] can be used to share Evidence Documents between sites over a network.
- Portable Data for Imaging [PDI] can store Evidence Documents on media such as CDs.
- Import Reconciliation Workflow [IRWF] can fix patient ids, etc. of Evidence Documents when importing.
