Entity Activity Observation

DescriptionA completed action of observing, monitoring, measuring or otherwise qualitatively or quantitatively gathering data or information about one or more aspects of a subject, study subject, or experimental unit.

For example:
Lab test
Taking vital signs
Physical exam

Attribute Details

 Approach Anatomic Site
DescriptionIdentifies the anatomic location or access point for an observation or procedure.
Neither target anatomic site nor approach anatomic site is necessarily required or relevant for certain observations, however if either or both are present then the distinction between them is that the approach site is the access point for the measurement or observation and the target site is what is ultimately being evaluated.

For example:
Anus for a colonoscopy observation
Arm for an injection
Trans-abdominal for a nephrectomy
Data TypeStandards - Data Domains.ddm/Data Domains/Enumeration [VARCHAR(20)]
Is Part Of PrimaryKeyfalse
Is Requiredfalse
Is Derivedfalse
Is Surrogate Keyfalse



 Approach Anatomic Site Laterality
DescriptionSpecifies the side of the body (or a paired organ) that is an access point for an observation or procedure.

For example:
Bilateral
Left
Right
Data TypeStandards - Data Domains.ddm/Data Domains/Enumeration [VARCHAR(20)]
Is Part Of PrimaryKeyfalse
Is Requiredfalse
Is Derivedfalse
Is Surrogate Keyfalse



 Body Position
DescriptionSpecifies the 3-dimensional spatial orientation of a subject during a particular observation.

For example:
Supine
Trendelenburg
Standing
Data TypeStandards - Data Domains.ddm/Data Domains/Enumeration [VARCHAR(20)]
Is Part Of PrimaryKeyfalse
Is Requiredfalse

 Body System
DescriptionSpecifies the anatomical structure that consists of organs and organ subclasses responsible for certain body functions.

For example:
Gastrointestinal system
Urinary system
Hematopoietic system
Data TypeStandards - Data Domains.ddm/Data Domains/Enumeration [VARCHAR(20)]
Is Part Of PrimaryKeyfalse
Is Requiredfalse
Is Derivedfalse
Is Surrogate Keyfalse



 Focal End Date
DescriptionThe quantity of time in which the observation result is held to be true.

For example:
2 months is the focal duration for a question such as "Have you smoked in the last 2 months?".
Data TypeStandards - Data Domains.ddm/Data Domains/Date [DATE]
Is Part Of PrimaryKeyfalse
Is Requiredfalse
Is Derivedfalse
Is Surrogate Keyfalse



 Focal Start Date
DescriptionThe time period in which the observation result is held to be true.
Data TypeStandards - Data Domains.ddm/Data Domains/Date [DATE]
Is Part Of PrimaryKeyfalse
Is Requiredfalse
Is Derivedfalse
Is Surrogate Keyfalse



 Name Code Modified Txt
DescriptionA character string that is a revision of the original text of the procedure to enable the coding of the text.

For example:
If the original text is "message", the Name Code Modified Text could be set to "massage", so that the text can be successfully coded.
Data TypeStandards - Data Domains.ddm/Data Domains/Text Large [VARCHAR(1024)]
Is Part Of PrimaryKeyfalse
Is Requiredfalse
Is Derivedfalse
Is Surrogate Keyfalse



 Non Reason Code
DescriptionA coded value specifying the motivation, cause or rationale that is explicitly NOT why an activity occurred.
Data TypeStandards - Data Domains.ddm/Data Domains/Enumeration [VARCHAR(20)]
Is Part Of PrimaryKeyfalse
Is Requiredfalse
Is Derivedfalse
Is Surrogate Keyfalse



 Observation Method
DescriptionSpecifies the technique used to perform the observation.

For example:
Arterial puncture, sphygmomanometry (for blood pressure measurement)
Global introspection, algorithm, bayesian (for Adverse Event causality)
Estrogen Receptor Assay, Progesterone Receptor Assay, p53 Assay (for clinical result assay)
Data TypeStandards - Data Domains.ddm/Data Domains/Enumeration [VARCHAR(20)]
Is Part Of PrimaryKeyfalse
Is Requiredfalse
Is Derivedfalse
Is Surrogate Keyfalse



 Standard Time Ind
DescriptionSpecifies whether the time of the process step is specified using standard (as opposed to daylight savings) time.
If the location and date are known, this data is derivable.
Data TypeStandards - Data Domains.ddm/Data Domains/Boolean Indicator [INTEGER]
Is Part Of PrimaryKeyfalse
Is Requiredfalse
Is Derivedfalse
Is Surrogate Keyfalse



 Target Anatomic Site
DescriptionThe anatomic location that is the focus of the observation, procedure, study or result. The target site of an observation result can be different to the target site of the observation that generated it.

For example;
The target site of the observation can be broad, such as "skin", while the target site of the observation result is specific, such as "skin on chest". Multiple contiguous sites within the same organ system can be referenced.

For example:
Lower intestine
Arm
Breast
Ovary
Kidney
Data TypeStandards - Data Domains.ddm/Data Domains/Enumeration [VARCHAR(20)]

Is Requiredfalse
Is Derivedfalse
Is Surrogate Keyfalse



 Target Anatomic Site Condition
DescriptionSpecifies the state of the target anatomic site.

For example:
The subject's left arm was bruised where the IV was inserted.
Data TypeStandards - Data Domains.ddm/Data Domains/Enumeration [VARCHAR(20)]
Is Part Of PrimaryKeyfalse
Is Requiredfalse
Is Derivedfalse
Is Surrogate Keyfalse



 Target Anatomic Site Laterality
DescriptionSpecifies the side of the body (or a paired organ) that is a target site for an observation.

For example:
Bilateral
Left
Right
