HL7 FHIR Profile: Skin and Wound Assessment, Release 1 (For Comment)
The official URL for this logical model is:
http://hl7.org/fhir/us/sw/StructureDefinition/sw-WoundPeriwoundDescription-model
A description of the skin around the wound (periwound). Color, induration, warmth and edema should be assessed. Redness of the surrounding skin can be indicative of unrelieved pressure. Irritation of the surrounding skin can result from exposure to feces or urine, a reaction to the dressing or tape, or inappropriate removal of dressing or tape. Redness, tenderness, warmth and swelling are classical clinical signs of infection. [Reference: Brown, P., 2009]
