Structured data

Structured data - structured health record information is divided into discrete fields, and may be enumerated, numeric, or codified. Examples of structured health information include: patient address (non-codified, but discrete field); diastolic blood pressure (numeric); coded result observation; coded diagnosis; patient risk assessment questionnaire with multiple-choice answers. Context may determine whether or not data are unstructured, e.G., a progress note might be standardized and structured in some ehr-s (e.G., subjective/objective/ assessment/plan) but unstructured in others.
