This page is part of the FHIR Specification (v1.1.0: STU 3 Ballot 1). The current version which supercedes this version is 5.0.0. For a full list of available versions, see the Directory of published versions . Page versions: R3 R2
This is a frozen snapshot of the FHIR specification created for the purpose of balloting the GAO implementation Guide. It includes draft changes that may be part of the future DSTU 2.1 release but further change is expected. Readers should focus solely on the GAO implementation content, and FHIR DSTU 2 for other purposes.
This is a value set defined by the FHIR project.

This value set is used in the following places:
This value set has an inline code system http://hl7.org/fhir/observation-relationshiptypes, which defines the following codes:
Code | Display | Definition | v3 Map (ActRrelationshipType) |
has-member | Has Member | This observation is a group observation (e.g. a battery, a panel of tests, a set of vital sign measurements) that includes the target as a member of the group. | =MBR |
derived-from | Derived From | The target resource (Observation or QuestionnaireResponse) is part of the information from which this observation value is derived. (e.g. calculated anion gap, Apgar score) NOTE: "derived-from" is only logical choice when referencing QuestionnaireResponse. | =DRIV |
sequel-to | Sequel To | This observation follows the target observation (e.g. timed tests such as Glucose Tolerance Test). | =SEQL |
replaces | Replaces | This observation replaces a previous observation (i.e. a revised value). The target observation is now obsolete. | =RPLC |
qualified-by | Qualified By | The value of the target observation qualifies (refines) the semantics of the source observation (e.g. a lipemia measure target from a plasma measure). | =QUALF |
interfered-by | Interfered By | The value of the target observation interferes (degrades quality, or prevents valid observation) with the semantics of the source observation (e.g. a hemolysis measure target from a plasma potassium measure which has no value). | =INTF |

Explanation of the columns that may appear on this page:
Level | A few code lists that FHIR defines are hierarchical - each code is assigned a level. In this scheme, some codes are under other codes, and imply that the code they are under also applies |
Source | The source of the definition of the code (when the value set draws in codes defined elsewhere) |
Code | The code (used as the code in the resource instance) |
Display | The display (used in the display element of a Coding). If there is no display, implementers should not simply display the code, but map the concept into their application |
