IHE Technical Framework or Supplement modified: |
+PCIM Profile TI (PCIM TI) revision 2.2, dated 2024-12-05 |
+
Volume(s) and Section(s) affected: |
+PCIM TI, Section A.1.2.4 |
+
Rationale for Change: +During the drafting of CP-DEV-018, it was identified that the OBR-7 and OBR-8 field descriptions required correction, and the accompanying text describing the number of participants needed revision. +This Change Proposal (CP) proposes changes to PCIM TI to implement the profile clarifications and positions for the above issue. |
+|
Section A.1.2.4 in PCIM TI - OBR - Observation Request, change the last sentence before Table A.1.2.4-1 to clarify OBR-7 and OBR-8 represent the times of participant involvement: |
+
Existing Text:
+It gives the timestamp of the beginning of the association (OBR-7), and when it is known, the end of the association (OBR-8).
+Proposed Text:
+It gives the timestamp of the earliest participant involvement (OBR-7) and the latest participant involvement (OBR-8).
+Section A.1.2.4 in PCIM TI - OBR - Observation Request, change the paragraph after Table A.1.2.4-1 to clarify OBR-7 and OBR-8 semantics: |
+
Existing Text:
+The OBR shall also include the timestamp of the earliest participant involvement (OBR-7) and latest participant involvement (OBR-8) for an association or disassociation event report. +Each report consists of two Participation Information Segments (PRT) and each may have timestamps for their involvement in PRT-11 and/or PRT-12. +OBR-7 and OBR-8 conveys the range of time of both participants. See Table A.1.2.6-3 and Table A.1.2.6-4 for definitions of the timestamp semantics in PRT-11 and PRT-12. +The logic for filling in the timestamp values for OBR-7 and OBR-8 is to examine both the PRT segments that will be sent out in the report and set OBR-7 to the earliest timestamp value and OBR-8 to the latest timestamp value. OBR-7 and 8 may contain the same timestamp.
