Clinical

Captures the beginning date of a diagnostic test or procedure outcome period in EHR, LIS, and clinical data warehouse systems. rslt_start_dt is critical for data engineers constructing time-series analytics, longitudinal patient records, and result validity window calculations across clinical pipelines.

The precise time at which a clinical procedure, test, or observation that produced a specific result was initiated. Used in lab processing, diagnostic imaging, and clinical event sequencing workflows to establish accurate timestamps for result interpretation and care timeline documentation.

The US state or territory associated with the location where a clinical result was generated or the patient resides. Used in geographic reporting, jurisdiction-based regulatory compliance, public health surveillance, and regional outcome analysis within clinical and health plan data systems.

A coded value indicating the current processing state of a laboratory test result in a clinical data system. Common values include preliminary, final, corrected, and cancelled. Used in EHR laboratory information systems and clinical data warehouses to track result lifecycle from order to final reporting.

The physical street address associated with a diagnostic or clinical test result record, typically identifying the facility or location where the specimen was collected or the test was performed. Used in lab and clinical data systems to maintain location traceability for result reporting.

The concentration or potency of a medication or substance associated with a clinical test result, expressed in standard units such as mg/mL or mcg. Used in pharmacy and laboratory data systems to document the dosage attributes linked to therapeutic drug monitoring or pharmacological test outcomes.

An intermediate aggregated value representing a partial sum of clinical or diagnostic result data within a defined grouping or category. Used in clinical data warehouses and reporting systems to support multi-level result analysis before final totals are computed across a complete dataset.

The calendar date on which a surgical procedure was performed, recorded in association with a clinical result record. Used in surgical and perioperative data systems to correlate operative events with post-procedure diagnostic outcomes, lab findings, or pathology reports for longitudinal patient tracking.

A system-generated unique identifier assigned to a clinical or diagnostic result record within a healthcare information system. Used across lab, EHR, and health information exchange platforms to unambiguously reference, link, and track individual result records throughout their lifecycle.

Identifies the destination system, provider, or clinical endpoint to which a test or procedure outcome is routed in EHR and health information exchange pipelines. Data engineers use rslt_tgt to configure result routing logic, HL7 message destinations, and downstream clinical workflow integrations.

A standardized classification code identifying the specialty or discipline associated with the clinician or service that generated the result. Used in clinical and claims data systems to categorize results by provider specialty using national taxonomy code sets such as the NUCC Health Care Provider Taxonomy.

The numeric body temperature measurement recorded as a clinical result, typically expressed in degrees Fahrenheit or Celsius. Used in vital signs and clinical documentation systems to capture and trend patient temperature readings as part of physical assessments, diagnostic workups, or ongoing patient monitoring workflows.

The date on which a clinical result record was closed, expired, or deactivated within a healthcare data system. Used in clinical data management to indicate when a result is no longer active or valid, supporting accurate longitudinal reporting and preventing use of outdated diagnostic information in care decisions.

Records the time of day a diagnostic test or procedure outcome was generated or reported in LIS and EHR systems. rslt_tm is used by data engineers alongside result date fields to construct precise timestamps for lab turnaround time analytics, SLA monitoring, and clinical event sequencing pipelines.

Stores the combined date and time a diagnostic test or procedure outcome was finalized or transmitted in LIS, EHR, and HIE systems. rslt_ts is essential for data engineers building audit trails, result latency monitoring, HL7 message sequencing, and longitudinal clinical event timelines.

The formal descriptive label or heading assigned to a clinical or diagnostic result record, identifying the type or name of the test or finding. Used in laboratory and clinical documentation systems to present standardized result names that align with ordering nomenclature and support consistent result interpretation.

Represents the aggregated or summed numeric value associated with a test or procedure outcome in EHR and clinical data warehouse systems. rslt_tot is used by data engineers for panel result aggregation, cumulative lab scoring, and population health metrics across diagnostic and reporting pipelines.

The aggregate number of individual clinical or diagnostic result records within a defined dataset, report, or grouping. Used in clinical data warehouses and reporting systems to quantify result volumes across patients, encounters, or time periods for operational analysis, quality measurement, and utilization reporting.

Categorizes a diagnostic test or procedure outcome by classification such as numeric, textual, coded, or structured in LIS, EHR, and FHIR-based systems. Data engineers rely on rslt_typ to apply correct parsing logic, schema mapping, and validation rules across heterogeneous clinical result data pipelines.

The most recent date on which a clinical or diagnostic result record was modified, corrected, or supplemented within the healthcare data system. Used in audit trails and data governance processes to track result amendments, ensure data integrity, and support regulatory compliance in laboratory and clinical documentation systems.
