Supply

Boolean or coded flag representing a specific operational or clinical state of a medical device in EHR, claims, or MDM systems. Used by data engineers to segment device populations, drive conditional logic in ETL pipelines, and support cohort identification for device-specific clinical quality measures and reporting programs.

Structured or free-text guidance associated with a medical device's operation, maintenance, or clinical use, stored in EHR or device management systems. Used by data engineers to populate clinical decision support content, map to IFU (Instructions for Use) documentation, and support regulatory compliance reporting under FDA device labeling requirements.

Serves as the primary surrogate key uniquely identifying a medical device record within a healthcare data warehouse or device registry. Used to join device records across clinical, claims, and inventory datasets, enabling consistent tracking of device identity throughout its lifecycle in the healthcare system.

Specifies the language or communication protocol used by a medical device to transmit data to clinical information systems. In device registry and integration contexts, this identifies interoperability standards or interface languages such as HL7, FHIR, or proprietary manufacturer protocols used for data exchange.

Stores the last name of the patient or responsible individual associated with an implanted or assigned medical device record. Used in device registry and implant tracking systems to link device deployment records to the correct patient for recall notifications, warranty tracking, and regulatory compliance reporting.

Records the official legally registered name of a medical device as established by the manufacturer and recognized by regulatory bodies such as the FDA. Used in device procurement, biomedical asset management, and regulatory compliance systems to ensure accurate identification for recalls, audits, and reporting.

Hierarchy tier assigned to a medical device within an organizational or classification structure in EHR, supply chain, or MDM systems. Used by data engineers to build parent-child device taxonomies, apply roll-up logic in reporting, and support tiered access controls or cost allocation models in healthcare analytics platforms.

Captures the regulatory license or authorization number issued by a governing body such as the FDA or Health Canada for a specific medical device. Used in device registry and compliance systems to verify that deployed devices hold valid market authorization and to support recall or adverse event reporting workflows.

Records the marital status of the patient linked to an implanted or assigned medical device within a device registry system. This demographic attribute supports patient identification, insurance coordination, and next-of-kin contact processes associated with device implant records and regulatory reporting requirements.

Represents the enterprise-level master identifier assigned to a medical device record across all integrated healthcare systems, equivalent to an enterprise master patient index for devices. Enables consistent cross-system identification and deduplication of device records in clinical, inventory, and regulatory reporting environments.

Defines the upper threshold or maximum operational parameter value configured for a medical device, such as the maximum allowable infusion rate on an IV pump or the upper alarm limit on a patient monitor. Used in device configuration management and clinical safety workflows to enforce safe operating boundaries.

Stores the medical record number of the patient to whom a medical device is implanted, assigned, or dispensed. Used in device registry and implant tracking systems to associate device deployment records with the correct patient encounter, supporting post-market surveillance, recall notifications, and clinical follow-up.

Stores the middle name or initial of the patient associated with an implanted or assigned medical device record. Used in device registry and implant tracking systems to support accurate patient matching and identification when linking device deployment records to patient demographics for recall and compliance purposes.

Defines the lower threshold or minimum operational parameter value configured for a medical device, such as the minimum infusion rate on an IV pump or the lower alarm limit on a patient monitor. Used in device configuration management and clinical safety systems to enforce safe operating boundaries and trigger alerts.

Records the mobile phone number of the patient or responsible contact associated with an implanted or assigned medical device. Used in device registry systems to facilitate direct patient outreach for device recalls, firmware update notifications, scheduled maintenance reminders, and post-market surveillance follow-up communications.

Identifies the user account or system process that last updated a medical device record within the device registry or asset management system. Used for audit trail and data governance purposes to track accountability for changes to device attributes, configuration settings, or assignment status across the device lifecycle.

Timestamp recording the most recent update to a medical device record in EHR, MDM, or device registry systems. Used by data engineers to implement incremental ETL load strategies, detect record changes for SCD Type 2 processing, and maintain audit trails for device data governance and regulatory compliance reporting.

Records the date and timestamp of the most recent update made to a medical device record in the device registry or asset management system. Used in audit logging and data governance workflows to establish a complete modification history, supporting regulatory compliance, data quality monitoring, and change tracking across the device lifecycle.

The standardized display label assigned to a medical equipment item in EHR, asset management, and claims systems. Used to identify durable medical equipment (DME) such as ventilators, infusion pumps, or glucose monitors across clinical and billing workflows.

Free-text annotation associated with a medical equipment item in EHR or biomedical asset management systems. Captures clinician observations, maintenance instructions, or configuration details linked to a specific device record in clinical or operational data pipelines.
