obstetric deleted dateob_del_dt

Date on which an obstetric record was marked as deleted or inactivated within the clinical or administrative system. Supports data governance and audit trails by preserving the timestamp of record removal without permanently purging the underlying pregnancy care documentation.

obstetric deleted indicatorob_del_ind

Boolean or coded flag that marks an obstetric record as logically deleted within the clinical data system. Allows pregnancy care records to be excluded from active reporting and workflows while retaining historical data integrity for audit, compliance, and longitudinal maternal health analysis.

obstetric descriptionob_desc

A free-text or structured narrative field providing clinical context or explanation for an obstetric finding, condition, or procedure. Used in EHR and maternal health systems to supplement coded data elements, support clinical documentation completeness, and enable natural language processing in analytics pipelines.

obstetric detailob_dtl

Granular clinical information associated with a specific obstetric event, condition, or procedure, such as complication type or delivery method specifics. Used in EHR and perinatal data systems to enrich summary records and support detailed maternal health reporting and quality measure calculation.

obstetric discharge dateob_dsch_dt

The calendar date a patient was released from an inpatient facility following pregnancy-related care, captured in EHR and institutional claims. Used to calculate obstetric length of stay, support DRG-based reimbursement, and monitor postpartum care gaps in maternal health analytics platforms.

obstetric due dateob_due_dt

Estimated date of delivery calculated for a pregnant patient based on last menstrual period, ultrasound dating, or clinical assessment. This date drives prenatal scheduling, risk stratification, and delivery planning workflows within obstetric care management systems.

obstetric durationob_dur

Length of time associated with a specific obstetric event, procedure, or episode of care, such as the duration of labor, a prenatal visit, or a monitoring session. Used in clinical documentation and quality reporting to evaluate obstetric care delivery and patient outcomes.

obstetric emailob_eml

The electronic mail address associated with a patient, provider, or contact within an obstetric care record. Used in EHR and patient engagement systems to support secure communication, appointment reminders, and care coordination workflows specific to maternal and prenatal health programs.

obstetric emergency indicatorob_emerg_ind

Flag identifying that an obstetric encounter or condition has been classified as an emergency, such as placental abruption, eclampsia, or fetal distress. Triggers priority workflows, rapid response protocols, and urgent care escalation within labor and delivery clinical systems.

obstetric end dateob_end_dt

The date marking the conclusion of an obstetric care episode, condition, treatment period, or data record validity. Used in EHR and maternal health data warehouses to define record temporal boundaries, support postpartum care tracking, and enable accurate episode-of-care analysis in reporting systems.

obstetric end timeob_end_tm

Timestamp marking the conclusion of an obstetric procedure, labor stage, monitoring session, or clinical encounter. Used in conjunction with start time to calculate duration, support billing accuracy, and document the timeline of maternal and fetal care events.

obstetric entered byob_ent_by

Identifier of the clinical or administrative user who entered the obstetric record into the system. Used for accountability, audit trail maintenance, and data quality review in electronic health records managing prenatal, labor, delivery, and postpartum care documentation.

obstetric ethnicityob_ethn

Self-reported or recorded ethnicity of the obstetric patient, used to support maternal health equity analysis, population health reporting, and risk stratification. Ethnicity data in obstetric records helps identify disparities in prenatal outcomes and inform targeted care interventions.

obstetric expiration dateob_exp_dt

The date after which an obstetric-related authorization, order, care plan, or data record is no longer considered valid or active. Used in EHR, utilization management, and maternal health systems to enforce data lifecycle policies and ensure clinical decisions are based on current information.

obstetric external identifierob_ext_id

Unique identifier assigned to an obstetric record by an external system, such as a referring hospital, health information exchange, or third-party perinatal registry. Enables cross-system matching and data sharing for continuity of maternal care across multiple clinical environments.

obstetric faxob_fax

Facsimile number associated with an obstetric care provider, facility, or practice used to transmit prenatal records, referral documentation, lab results, and clinical communications. Supports coordinated care between obstetric providers, specialists, hospitals, and health plans.

obstetric feeob_fee

Charge amount associated with an obstetric service, procedure, or episode of care such as a prenatal visit, ultrasound, or delivery. Used in claims processing, revenue cycle management, and reimbursement workflows to document the billed cost of maternity care services.

obstetric first nameob_first_nm

Given name of the patient receiving obstetric care, used for patient identification, record matching, and clinical communication throughout prenatal, labor, delivery, and postpartum care. Supports accurate demographic data management within maternal health information systems.

obstetric flagob_flg

A binary or coded indicator identifying the presence of a specific obstetric condition, risk factor, or data quality concern on a patient record. Used in EHR, care management, and maternal health data systems to trigger clinical alerts, filter cohorts, and prioritize high-risk pregnancy interventions.
