| items | |
| Staining method | Staining method: Name of the technique used to stain the specimen. For example: Ziehl–Neelsen; Gram stain Choice of:
|
| Staining agent | Staining agent: A chemical dye or compound that interacts with biological specimens to produce a colour change, improving their visibility and differentiation under a microscope. For example: crystal violet, carbol fuchsin. |
| Specimen | Specimen: Include: All not explicitly excluded archetypes |
| Clinical findings | Clinical findings: Narrative description about the findings observed using the identified stain. For example: an overall description; the presence of non-targeted findings such as epithelial cells or debris. |
| Per target finding | Per target finding: Details about a specific microorganism, tissue structure, or cell structure observed during the microscopic examination of a stained specimen. |
| Staining target | Staining target: Identification of the target organism, cell or structure. For example: gram-positive cocci, fungi, acid-fast bacilli, cell nuclei or pathological inclusions. Coding with an external terminology is preferred, if available. |
| Presence | Presence: Statement about detection of the staining target in the specimen.
|
| Qualitative result | Qualitative result: Qualitative assessment of the amount of the target organism, cell, or structure observed using the stain. Choice of:
|
| Morphology | Morphology: Narrative description about the physical characteristics of the staining target. For example: gram-positive cocci in clusters; gram-negative bacilli, short rods; elongated fibroblasts; multinucleated giant cells; branching hyphae; oval yeast forms with budding. |
| Comment | Comment: Additional narrative about the target findings using the identified stain, not captured in other fields. |
| Comment | Comment: Additional narrative about the overall microscopy findings using the identified stain, not captured in other fields. |
