S&I+Framework+CEDD



=S&I Framework CEDD Documentation=

The S&I Framework CEDD is a "living" and integral piece of standards harmonization and implementation guidance within the S&I Framework. Updated versions of the S&I Framework CEDD will be posted on a monthly basis. The S&I CEDD is available in two formats intended for different audiences and respective use. This S&I CEDD is the primary form of the S&I CEDD and a true representation of Initiative-generated objects and data elements in data dictionary format recognizable to physicians and all interested parties. The S&I CEDD Workbook offers the same objects and data elements in a format capable of representing various representations through standards recommended by all S&I Framework Initiatives adopting an object or data element. Additional technical specifications represented in the S&I CEDD Workbook include identified data types, recommended value sets, and specific standard references represented through all adopting Initiatives’ Recommended Standards.

Release || Release ||
 * = **Type** || **CEDD Document Name** || **Description** ||= **Current Status** ||
 * = [[image:siframework/word_icon.png]] || **[|S&I Framework CEDD] ** || The S&I Framework Clinical Element Data Dictionary (CEDD) serves as a repository for the data elements supporting the work of the S&I Framework initiatives. The primary objective of the S&I Framework CEDD is to provide a common information foundation to each of the S&I Framework initiatives and to promote reuse of data elements. ||= February 2012 Release ||
 * [[image:excel_icon.png align="center"]] || **S&I CEDD Workbook** || The S&I CEDD Workbook offers the same objects and data elements as the S&I Framework CEDD, but in a format capable of representing various representations through standards recommended by all S&I Framework Initiatives adopting an object or data element. Additional technical specifications represented in the S&I CEDD Workbook include identified data types, recommended value sets, and specific standard references represented through all adopting Initiatives’ Recommended Standards. ||= Updated as of March with Query Health ||

 * = [[image:siframework/word_icon.png]] || **[|Recommendation Form]** || This form is used to capture additions and modifications to the S&I Framework CEDD. The form is completed by S&I Framework initiatives following standards analysis. ||= February 2012

S&I Framework CEDD Models and Tools
Although the intention of the CEDD work is NOT to generate platform-dependent or implementation-specific models, tools and models are made available to assist vendors and implementers with using the CEDD as part of their implementations. In addition, a set of commonly used templates are provided to assist community-led initiatives (such as Public Health Reporting and Longitudinal Coordination of Care (LCC) with CEDD analysis and development activities.

A version of the S&I CEDD is made available in the .DMD format to allow for the modification and manipulation of the CEDD.

This version of the DMD file supports all S&I Framework CEDD initiatives, and is updated on a monthly basis to reflect new work within the S&I CEDD workgroup.

Oracle SQL Developer Data Modeler Version 3.1 can be downloaded here: ||= Working Draft (Version 1.1)

Current as of January 2012 ||~  ||
 * = [[image:zip_icon.png link="http://wiki.siframework.org/file/view/SI_CEDD_JAN2012.EAP/301451504/SI_CEDD_JAN2012.EAP"]] || **[|**Enterprise Architect (EA) File**]** || The S&I CEDD is captured as a UML model, through the use of Enterprise Architect (EA). The EA model file includes CEDD objects and data elements, and work

This EA file is also used to provide integration of the S&I CEDD to Model Driven Health Tools (MDHT). MDHT has no limitations on supporting either CDA or non-CDA focused models and work is ongoing to ensure the UML is accurately represented within MDHT releases.

This version of the EA file supports all S&I Framework CEDD initiatives, and is updated on a monthly basis to reflect new work within the S&I CEDD workgroup. ||= Working Draft (Version 1.9) ||~  ||
 * = [[image:web_icon.png link="http://wiki.siframework.org/file/view/SI_CEDD_JAN2012.xmi/301451508/SI_CEDD_JAN2012.xmi"]] || **[|**XML Interchange (XMI) File**]** || An XMI format is made available to allow for the import and export of the S&I CEDD into a UML model.

This feature supports initiatives such as Transitions of Care which request the use of the CEDD as part of reference implementation development.

It also allows for integration with other information modeling initiatives, such as the Federal Health Information Model (FHIM) and Federal Health Terminology Model (FHTM) by using a common interchange format (UML 2.3) to exchange and integrated model elements.

The XMI file provided by the S&I Framework is generated using Enterprise Architect 8.1, and is updated monthly. ||= Working Copy (Not Versioned Currently) ||~  ||
 * =  || **Data Definition Language (DDL) File** || A DDL export is provided to allow for the implementation of the S&I CEDD within a physical data store.

This feature supports initiatives such as Query Health which provide detailed guidance on the setup and modification of new and existing clinical data sources to support distributed queries. The DDL file is platform-independent and can be used in other data modeling and database development tools.

The DDL file provided by the S&I Framework is generated using the free, open source Oracle SQL Developer Data Modeler tool, and is updated monthly. ||= Planned for March 2011 ||~  ||
 * = [[image:excel_icon.png link="@http://wiki.siframework.org/file/detail/Query+Health+CEDD+Crosswalk.xls"]] || **[|**S&I Initiative CEDD Crosswalk Template**]** || The CEDD Crosswalk is a commonly used template for development and analysis activities at the S&I Framework initiative level. The crosswalk template can be downloaded in Excel format using the Excel icon to the right. An example of the usage of the CEDD Crosswalk is within the Query Health Initiative, to map underlying implementation models and standards to the CEDD objects and data elements defined in the Clinical Working Group. The Query Health CEDD Crosswalk is available here. ||= Version 1.0 ||~  ||
 * = [[image:word_icon.png link="@http://wiki.siframework.org/file/detail/S%26I+Initiative+CEDD_Template.docx"]] || **[|**S&I Initiative CEDD Template**]** || The CEDD Template is a template for development and analysis of the "initiative CEDD", for eventual inclusion into the S&I CEDD. It is intended to be used as a starting point by S&I initiatives, with modification of the underlying template welcomed. The template can be downloaded using the Excel icon to the right.

An example of the usage of the S&I CEDD Template is the Transitions of Care CEDD, available here. ||= Version 1.0 ||~  ||
 * = [[image:excel_icon.png link="@http://wiki.siframework.org/file/detail/PD+Generic+Data+Model.xls"]]

|| **S&I Initiative CEDD Data Model and Mappings Templates** || The CEDD Data Model and Mapping templates are used to assist in documenting mappings from CEDD objects and data elements to standards and for mapping other data and information models for development and analysis of the "initiative CEDD", for eventual inclusion into the S&I CEDD.

An example of the usage of the S&I CEDD Data Model and Mapping templates is the Provider Directory ESI Object Model, available here. The object model is analyzed further using CEDD analysis templates for eventual inclusion into the S&I CEDD.

The templates can be downloaded using the Excel icons to the left. ||= Version 1.0 ||~  || Return to top
