   of the extension is a uri the defines a query that identifies the collection of relevant
   data elements  This extension can be used on any profile of the resource types Observation
   and Questionnaire. THe profile specifies which elements are mandatory etc, but any elements
   in a resource that conforms to the profile must also conform to one of the defined data
   elements.  For Observation: * Observation.code must be associated with a matching Data
   Element by DataElement.code.  * The profile should bind Observation.code to a value set
   that has the same codes as the collection of data elements (though it can be narrower)
   * the units and the quantity value should conform to the rules laid down in the matching
