| Data Elements for Emergency Department Systems - Release 1.0 (Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, 1997, 274 p.) |
Most DEEDS data elements can be transmitted in existing Health Level 7, Version 2.3 segments. The 3-character identifier and name for these segments (and the section in HL7 where they are defined) are as follows:
|
AL1 |
Patient Allergy Information Segment (3.3.6) |
|
AUT |
Authorization Information Segment (11.5.2) |
|
CTD |
Contact Data Segment (11.5.4) |
|
DG1 |
Diagnosis Segment (6.4.2) |
|
IN1 |
Insurance Segment (6.4.6) |
|
NK1 |

|
OBR |

STF |
Staff Identification Segment (8.6.2) |
Several DEEDS data elements cannot be transmitted in segments defined in HL7, Version 2.3. In accordance with HL7 messaging standards, these data elements are to be transmitted in externally defined segments known as Z segments. Data elements 3.07- 3.10 (the ED Payment Authorization Group) are to be transmitted in a DEEDS-defined ZAU segment, and data elements 8.08-8.12 (the ED Referral Group) are to be transmitted in a DEEDS-defined ZRF segment.
The following table is intended to aid implementation of DEEDS, Release 1.0 in accordance with HL7, Version 2.3. Groups of DEEDS data elements are organized into message segments, separated from one another by a row of white space. For example, the white space between data elements 1.13 and 1.14 represents the division between an OBX segment and an NK1 segment. Additional data fields are needed for HL7-compliant message transmission. These data fields are listed in the tables right-most column.
