HL7 Domain Analysis Model: Common Clinical Registry Framework, Release 2

Registry data is typically highly specific and has a high level of structure. This means data collection often requires difficult and expensive custom interfacing. When source data are not readily available or transferable to registries in electronic formats, registries then must use manual data entry, which is inefficient and does not scale well.

This domain analysis model (DAM) describes the function, organisation, structure and major workflows of a general clinical registry. The DAM aims to express these aspects of clinical registries to those involved in the work of developing registries or making them interoperate with other health information systems.
