ARCHETYPE Contraindication of intravitreal anti-VEGF injections (openEHR-EHR-EVALUATION.contraindication-intravitreal_antiVEGF.v0)

ARCHETYPE IDopenEHR-EHR-EVALUATION.contraindication-intravitreal_antiVEGF.v0
ConceptContraindication of intravitreal anti-VEGF injections
DescriptionIdentification of the criteria considered for exclude patients from treatment using intravitreal anti-VEGF injections.
Use

Use to record the identification of a treatment, medication or procedure which should not be administered or performed on this subject.

This contraindication may be identified in a number of ways, for example:

  • previous experience of a procedure being performed and subsequent clinical assessment that this should not be repeated;
  • genomic testing results that indicate an adverse event may take place if a treatment or medication is administered; or
  • experience of a family member to a similar treatment, medication or procedure.

Clinical decision support for prescribing should include checking of both known adverse reactions to the proposed medicine (EVALUATION.adverse_reaction) plus known contraindications using this archetype.

MisuseNot to be used to record the occurrence of an adverse reaction to a substance or agent - use EVALUATION.adverse_reaction for this purpose.
PurposeTo record the identification of a treatment, medication or procedure which should not be administered or performed on this subject.

data
ContraindicationContraindication: Identified contraindication to a treatment, medicine, vaccine or procedure.
  • Intravitreal anti-VEGF [Treatment of intravitreal anti-VEGF injections contraindicated.]
Evidence/RationaleEvidence/Rationale: Evidence or rationale for the contraindication.
  • Very low VA [Visual acuity on first clinical encounter below 0.1 in decimal scale.]
  • Healed lesions [Identified signs of previous treatments such as photodynamic therapy, laser photocoagulation scars, or any vitreoretinal operative procedure.]
  • Multimorbidity [Coexistence of additional alterations on the retina causative of visual impairment.]
  • Reaction to anti-VEGF [Establishment or suspicion of any reaction due to hypersensitivity to anti-VEGF agents used in intravitreal injections.]
  • No response to treatment [Visual acuity decreased for three consecutive reviews below 0.1 in decimal scale.]
  • Morphologic deterioration [Progressive deterioration of the morphology of the lesion.]
