71482-4

LOINC code 71482-4 identifies "Risk assessment Document". A risk assessment document (or section) contains a clinical interpretation of the risk factors for a particular patient. For example, a cardiovascular risk assessment might contain the Framingham derived 10 year probability of coronary heart disease. It is meant to cover a broad range of potential domains of risk (e.g. cardiovascular, psychological, physical function, etc) and therefor these are not specified in the name. This term was originally created for, but not limited in use to, use within the Cardiac Imaging Report CDA Implementation Guide developed by IHE (in collaboration with the American College of Cardiology and the DICOM Standards Committee).

This code measures Risk assessment in {Setting}. It belongs to the DOC.MISC class in the LOINC classification.

LOINC (Logical Observation Identifiers Names and Codes) is a universal standard for identifying laboratory and clinical observations. It is maintained by the Regenstrief Institute and used worldwide for health data exchange.
