Definitions for the PN logical model.
Guidance on how to interpret the contents of this table can be found here
0. PN | |
Definition | A name for a person. A sequence of name parts, such as given name or family name, prefix, suffix, etc. Examples for person name values are "Jim Bob Walton, Jr.", "Adam Everyman", etc. A person name may be as simple as a character string or may consist of several person name parts, such as, "Jim", "Bob", "Walton", and "Jr.". PN differs from EN because the qualifier type cannot include LS (Legal Status). |
Logical Container | ClinicalDocument (CDA Class) |
XML Format | In the XML format, this property has the namespace urn:hl7-org:v3 . |
Invariants | pn-no-ls: No PN name part may have a qualifier of LS. ((item.delimiter | item.family | item.given | item.prefix | item.suffix).where(qualifier.where($this = 'LS').exists()).empty() ) |
2. PN.item | |

2. PN.nullFlavor | |
Definition | If a value is an exceptional value (NULL-value), this specifies in what way and why proper information is missing. |
Control | 0..1 |
Binding | The codes SHALL be taken from CDANullFlavor (required to http://hl7.org/cda/stds/core/ValueSet/CDANullFlavor ) |
Type | code(cs: Coded Simple Value) |
Primitive Value | This primitive element may be present, or absent, or replaced by an extension |
XML Format | In the XML format, this property is represented as an attribute. |
Label | Exceptional Value Detail |
4. PN.use | |
Definition | A set of codes advising a system or user which name in a set of like names to select for a given purpose. A name without specific use code might be a default name useful for any purpose, but a name with a specific use code would be preferred for that respective purpose |
Control | 0..* |

6. PN.item | |
Definition | A series of items that constitute the name. |
Control | 1..* |
Type | http://hl7.org/fhir/StructureDefinition/Base |
Choice Group | This is a repeating choice group that does not appear directly in the instance |
