HL7 Version 3 Standard: Public Health; Tuberculosis Domain Analysis Model, Release 1
DESCRIPTION
The HL7 Version 3 Tuberculosis Domain Analysis Model (DAM) represents the clinical processes associated with managing pulmonary tuberculosis (TB) from the point at which patients present themselves at treatment sites, through diagnosis and treatment. The process model has been split into two submodels: one for diagnosing TB, and the other for treatment.

DEVELOPMENT BACKGROUND
The National Institutes of Health has funded the Tuberculosis Project (supported by HHSN268200425214C) to develop a methodology for standardizing tuberculosis data collected in the healthcare process such that the data will support multiple secondary uses in the areas of research, surveillance, and quality improvement. As a result a Domain Analysis Model was developed to represent the TB Domain to provide organizations with a standard and consistent way to represent TB information and data.
