This page presents a complete executable example using the HL7 FHIR Clinical Guidelines IG. The scope of this example is described on the Hypertension Use Case page, and is aligned with the same example scope implemented using the BPM+ Hypertension Example Models .
VA Human Factors Engineering (HFE) is developing a collection of Veteran Personas that represent fictional, yet realistic representations of a type of user likely to interact with a product or service in the VA healthcare delivery system. They are data-driven, with each persona representing a unique set of characteristics related to how users interact with a product or service. Patient personas enable the project team to establish an ‘empathetic bridge’ to their users. They can provide a quick, preliminary understanding of the intended users of new teams – particularly prior to investigating user needs. User personas are particularly helpful in providing an immediate perspective of various user types when considering potential capabilities or design alternatives.
The VA HFE persona for “Dan” is well-suited for our Hypertension use case and developing/evaluating system design support for Patient-Centered Care Management. We also leverage Dan’s persona to illustrate and test the COVID-19 Severity Classification guideline because Dan’s conditions (age over 65, with hypertension and diabetes) present a patient with higher risk for COVID-19 complications.
