Creating an Element within an Element Set

Use these instructions to create an Element within an existing Element Set.
Note: For the purpose of this section, a new Element will be created in the Hillrom Patient Risk Surveillance Element Set. Hillrom only has one Element Set and it contains all of the content for both the Smart Device Connectivity and Patient Risk Surveillance products.
  1. Log in to the terminology services client and open Element Set Manager.
  2. Search for the Hillrom Clinical Vectors Element Set and double-click the element set to open it.
  3. Click Apply.
  4. In the top Menu bar, click Element, and then click Add.
  5. Create a Term name and select the term type (which domain the term belongs to).
    Note: If the domain is unknown, let it default to General Term.
  6. Complete any Attributes related to this term.
    Attributes are essentially variables that can be used in APIs to further identify this Element. Examples of attributes that are used for CV 1.0 include the following:
    1. ElementGroupCategory – Boolean
    2. FHIR_type – string
    3. GroupID – string
    4. Risk context – Boolean
    5. Risk Factor – Boolean
    6. UoM_default_code – Selection from unitsofmeasure.org.
