• Consider connectathon for LIDR - Dan will take a look - no update

• LIDR White Paper under SC review until Feb 21 (no action so far)

  • Carmen added a few more comments - reviewed these today:

    • Fixed the typos

    • Adjusted the section around lab result values being sent by labs and issues with current implementations

    • added response to the question around creation of qualitative result value sets

    • Specimen - pre-coordination vs post-coordination

      • both need to be supported

      • type is always required, the others are when needed, which is not just needed for AP tests

      • best practice would be to record specimen attributes in post-coordinated manner at time of collection, as that is better able to record all the details (combinatorial explosion for pre-coordinated terms will prevent capturing at the right level - example lung tissue biopsy from upper right lobe of lung)

    • need to decide how to support the post-cooridination in LIDR

    • Made bulleted list and moved semi-quant between quant and qual result values

    • wordsmithed semi-quant values

      • note that Michelle Stra??? did a paper on the variation of semi-quant scales used for the same urin-analysis instrument we could cite

Reviewing minutes from the last call - Action Item Follow up - NOT DISCUSSED

• Pull out the definitions from LIVD for test kit and equipment and put here: SHIELD Glossary

  • Review operational definition of “equivalence”

    • Will look for a CLSI defintion

    • also check IFCC definition

    •  

• Outreach to Dr. DeBaca

  • Hung will check for more info and maybe see, if she could participate in SHIELD

• Keep updating the googlesheet: Potassium LIVD data

• Shared Reportable Conditions LIVD google sheet for crowdsourcing with CSTE - added sign up sheet for PHAs to specific conditions and see how that develops

• Have LIVD File Repository Requirements

  Have draft budget (for setting up a web-based database and yearly maintenance): https://aphlinformatics.atlassian.net/wiki/download/attachments/915407143/LIDR - Budget.xlsx?api=v2

• Define next steps to migrate existing LIVD files into FHIR LIVD catalog format and find a FHIR server to host

• Marti can share the LIDR categorical data to instance data mapping for each element - DATE?
