<h2> 2. The Problem </h2>
+
==Specification==
<p> Physicians who encounter adverse drug events are requested to report these events to the FDA.  This reporting is voluntary and spontaneous, and, by most estimates, covers less than 1% of reportable events.  Despite this low reporting rate, the spontaneous reporting system (SRS) remains the primary source of potential adverse events. To increase the value of the SRS we need to improve recognition of adverse drug events (ADEs), decrease the burden of reporting, and improve the quality of the data in the report.  </p>
 
<p> The overall goal of this effort is to create a new business model for post-market safety reporting by employing the Retrieve Form Data capture (RFD) standard, the HL7 Individual Case Safety Report, and novel design to collect higher quality data directly from electronic medical records (EMR) and make it easier for physicians to report these events.  This can positively impact public health as a whole in our country. </p>
 
<p>The drug safety use case begins with a trigger event within the EHR which identifies the need to report an adverse event.  RFD summons a drug safety data capture form from the appropriate source, and the form is completed by the EHR user, assisted by auto-population scripts within the EHR.  This profile addresses the lack of standard content for the auto-population. The proposed content profile will align the data requirements of the RFD data safety report with HL7’s ICSR (E2B) standard.  ICSR provides the basis for identifying the data elements required from the EHR, and greatly simplifies the involvement of the EHRs in drug safety reporting. This content profile will also complement the Query for Existing Data profile currently in development.  An ICSR-based content profile would provide the list of data elements that an EHR should have on hand to respond to an external query from a drug safety sponsor.</P>

<p> The point of departure for this use case is a patient care site which currently reports drug safety information using RFD without a content profile.

<h4>After Drug Safety Content:</h4>
 
<p>  A physician discovers a suspected adverse event during a patient outpatient visit.  The physician uses RFD to fetch a drug safety form from the appropriate source.  The EHR automatically provides the data elements specified in the Drug Safety Content Profile, and the forms manager populates the form and returns it to the form filler for display.  The physician reviews the partially completed form, and fills in those sections which the content profile did not specify.  RFD returns the data to the Forms Receiver.</p>
 
<h4>Pharmaco-vigilance Scenario</h4>
 
<p> A community-based physician, Dr. Cramp, sees a patient in an outpatient clinic and accesses the patient’s electronic health record which reveals that the patient is on one of the new statin drugs.  The physical examination turns up muscle weakness in the patient’s calves, which the physician recognizes as a possible adverse reaction to the statin. He orders a total creatinine kinase lab test to help in diagnosing the problem. </p>
 
<h4> Current State </h4>
 
<p> Dr. Cramp exits the EHR and, using a web browser, goes to http://www.fda.gov/medwatch/. He
 
brings up form FDA 3500, for ‘voluntary reporting of adverse events noted spontaneously in the course of clinical care’. He navigates through several screens of routing and instructions to arrive at the first screen of the actual form, which requests patient identifier, age at time of event 365 or date of birth, sex, and weight; the second screen requests seven entries: a classification of the event, classification of outcome, event date, report date, description, relevant tests (he notes that a test has been ordered), and other relevant history (the last three fields are text entry); the third and fourth screens ask for details about the product ; and so forth. In actuality, the current state is that this form is seldom completed. </p>
 
<h4> Desired State </h4>
 
<p> Dr. Cramp sees the patient and accesses the EHR as above. Upon finding the potential problem, he clicks on an ‘Adverse Event Reporting’ button which uses RFD to bring up FDA form 3500, which has been styled to the look and feel of the EHR user interface. The form is presented with the demographics already completed. The product name is part of the working context of the EHR session, and is automatically loaded into the appropriate field. Dr. Cramp completes the empty fields of the form and submits directly to the FDA Medwatch site. </p>
 
<p> RFD retrieves the form from MedWatch, displays it, and returns the data to FDA. The EHR extracts relevant data from its database, as specified in ICSR.  </p>

Drug Safety Content (DSC) describes the content and format to be used to pre-populate data for safety reporting purposes. DSC is a content profile that uses transactions described within Retrieve Form for Data-capture (RFD).

Summary

DSC is part of a set of profiles that create interoperability between EHRs and specialized research systems, resulting in EHR-enabled research. The purpose of this profile is to support a standard set of data in Continuity of Care Document format which the EHR provides for use in reporting adverse events as it relates to Drug Safety. In addition this profile will reference the ability to convert this output into the ICH E2B(R3) standard.


Benefits

DSC both saves labor and improves the quality of drug safety data. By eliminating duplicate data entry, the use of DSC saves time in the process of completing a drug safety report form. By using existing EHR data to automatically pre-populate the form, DSC eliminates data entry errors, thus improving data quality.

Details

DSC is activated by the Retrieve Form for Data-capture (RFD) profile at the point where RFD retrieves a data safety from a safety reporting system. DSC defines the export document based on HL7's Continuity of Care Document, and provides a mapping to the ICH E2B(R3) standard.
