FHIR HL7

@Grant Forrest 

Grant has attended FHIR meetings and noted work done on theatre information with them. Times and dates of various steps in the procedure can be documented, with limited further detail. The initial version of the Anaesthesia IG (Implementation Guide) is published, with a limited dataset - note Dan Asher as a potential contact (@Patrick McCormick will get in touch). Will be using US "Core Patient" as it's a usable standard when composing a practical anaesthesia record.
