Staff surface Definitions and reviews

Definition library

Every executable definition, side-panel definition and catalogue entry, in three groups by the licence of its source, with its threshold in our own words and the source it is cited to. All are drafts pending review; a definition shows as reviewed only when both a clinical and a coding approval are recorded. Default set library_default_set@1.1.

Local criteria: site choices among published definitions and named local variants of the side-panel definitions, each with a change record, two approvals and an outcome preview.

Coder worklist

Core definitions: sources that are U.S. government works (public domain) or openly licensed (CC BY, with attribution). The product stands on these. 31 executable, 4 side-panel, 3 kidney-check rules (their citations are re-sourced with their next version), 3 catalogue.

Setting: show extended capabilities on clinician screens

Current on clinician screens: Off (default) When on, findings from extended definitions appear on the side panel and the per-note screen under their own heading, after the core findings. Off or on, every check runs and replays the same, and the coder view shows both groups. The guided demo's four cases are unaffected.

CDI or coding staff can change this setting: switch the demo user.

Licence status

Thresholds are stated in our own words. Verbatim text is kept only from U.S. government works and openly licensed (CC BY) sources, with the attribution the licence asks for; copyrighted guidelines are cited by title, body and year, with a locator. No endorsement by the cited bodies is implied. This is not legal advice: counsel should review before commercial release.

Cancer-treatment adverse-event grading scale (NCI CTCAE): off by default

CTCAE grades describe adverse events in people receiving cancer treatment, usually in trials; they are not diagnostic criteria, and several grades depend on the laboratory reference range or on clinical descriptors that are not encoded. Using them outside that setting is a local decision for the clinical reviewer.

Current: Off (default) When on, grading entries are shown only as "another published definition gives …" or as values needing clinical judgement; they never raise a "not stated" item.

CDI or coding staff can change this setting. A clinician account records clinical reviews; a coding or documentation account records coding reviews: switch the demo user.

To confirm
  • To confirm with a clinician and the dietitian lead: whether this definition is shown at all to VA users, who were trained on the US consensus characteristics; it is shown only in the library and, with extended capabilities on, as another published definition in the card's details.

GLIM criteria for the diagnosis of malnutrition: a consensus report from the global clinical nutrition community

front_malnutrition_global_consensus@1.0

In our words: Global consensus: at least one physical finding (weight loss over 5% in 6 months or over 10% over a longer period; low body-mass index; reduced muscle mass) and one cause (eating half or less of needs for over a week, or less than usual for over 2 weeks, or a condition affecting absorption; inflammation). Severe: weight loss over 10% in 6 months or over 20% over a longer period, or a body-mass index below 18.5 under age 70 or below 20 at 70 and over.
