Primary Caries Prevention Intervention as Offered by Primary Care Providers, including Dentists. The literature reflects that fluoride varnish when applied to the teeth of high-risk children, reduces, in conjunction with anticipatory guidance provided to the caregiver, the risk of the child developing caries

Data Elements

EncounterInpatientPerformed

Clinical Focus: This set of values identify the most common inpatient encounter types.

Data Element Scope: The intent of this data element is to identify patients who have had an inpatient encounter. Using the Quality Data Model, this particular element will map to the 'encounter' category.

Inclusion Criteria: Only SNOMED CT codes representing inpatient encounter should be included.

Exclusion Criteria: None.

Subject constrained to the Encounter Inpatient

EncounterPerformed: Data elements that meet criteria using this datatype should document that the encounter indicated by the QDM category and its corresponding value set is in progress or has been completed. Timing: The Relevant Period addresses: startTime – The time the encounter began (admission time) stopTime – The time the encounter ended (discharge time). The Author dateTime addresses when an Encounter is documented. Documentation can occur at the beginning, during, at the end or subsequent to the end of an Encounter. The Author dateTime should be used only if the Relevant Period cannot be obtained. The Location Period is an attribute of the attribute facility location addresses: startTime = the time the patient arrived at the location; stopTime = the time the patient departed from the location
