Report metadata

Field Value
PFD reference 2024-0076
Registered primary source SRC-069
Report date 2024-02-08
Coroner area East Riding and Hull
Clinical setting Hospital discharge to community rehabilitation
Care transition Acute inpatient ward to community rehabilitation
Primary workflow group Record integrity and provenance
Primary browsing context Cross-setting and multi-agency care
Predominant information boundary Between care settings

The workflow, browsing-context and predominant-boundary fields are retained navigation aids. They are not additional coronial findings, and a single primary value cannot express every aspect of a multi-setting or multi-mechanism report.

Care-pathway classification

This classification distinguishes where safety-relevant information or work arose, where action was expected and where the digital or information workflow failed. It is a project coding of the source, not a coronial statement. “Origin” does not mean the organisation caused the harm.

Dimension Project classification
Settings and pathway participants Secondary acute or outpatient care, Community health or rehabilitation
Information or work-item origin Secondary acute or outpatient care
Origin care context(s) Secondary care
Expected action destination Community health or rehabilitation
Destination care context(s) Community care
Directional pathway Secondary acute or outpatient care → Community health or rehabilitation
Care-setting span Multiple care settings
Sector boundary Health services only
Failure point Transfer or interface
Classification confidence high

Classification note: The amended discharge representation arose in the acute hospital and was used by community rehabilitation; author attribution and notification were lost at that boundary.

Classification confidence applies only to this care-pathway coding. It is separate from extraction confidence, source authority and causal certainty.

Evidence status and qualification

Field Status
Extraction confidence high
Verification status Primary source linked; high-confidence extraction
Response evidence status Response evidence noted
Registered response sources SRC-097, SRC-098, SRC-099
Non-exclusive mechanism codes PROV, VIS, INT, LOOP, HF, GOV

Qualification recorded in the dataset: Lorenzo defect was not found causal. Responses clarify a full underlying audit trail existed; the defect concerned attribution in the immediate discharge letter presented and distributed to users

“Response evidence noted” means only that the row qualification refers to response/respondent evidence or records a recipient's post-report position. The linked IDs enumerate the official response attachments registered for this row; they do not imply that every response supports every part of the qualification, and they do not establish implementation. “Not assessed” makes no claim about whether a response exists.

Project summary of the coroner's concern

Unattributed amendments could cause critical miscommunication and treatment delay after discharge

Requested action

Hull University Teaching Hospitals NHS Trust, NHS England, CQC and CSC as Lorenzo provider to act

Digital safety characterisation

Dimension Project extraction
System or record type Lorenzo EPR Immediate Discharge Letter
Digital function Discharge-summary amendment and provenance
Failure mode Lorenzo did not auto-populate the author of changes made to an immediate discharge letter after finalisation
Human-factors issue Recipients could not readily determine who made a post-finalisation decision or amendment
Workflow issue Post-finalisation changes could pass into the next care setting without visible attribution or reliable notification
Information issue Author identity and decision provenance were absent from the distributed discharge representation

Downstream Defence trace

No canonical candidate Defence requirement currently cites this report. This does not imply that the mechanism is irrelevant; any mapping must be added and qualified in the controlled requirements register.

The included-case dataset preserves early legacy_military_relevance and legacy_derived_requirement fields for audit history. They are not published here as requirements and must not override the canonical REQ register. New report rows do not need to populate them.
