Extension Probability Distribution Type for uncertainty - Detailed Descriptions

Detailed Descriptions for the elements in the extension.

Extension
Definition	A code specifying the type of probability distribution for the uncertainty.
Control	0..1
Type	Extension
Comments	This is only meaningful if there is also an uncertainty extension. If there is and uncertainty extension with no type, this means that the probability distribution type is unknown. In that case, the uncertainty has the meaning of an informal guess.
Extension.id
Definition	unique id for the element within a resource (for internal references).
Control	0..1
Type	id
Extension.extension(extension)
Definition	An Extension
Control	0..0
Type	Extension
Extension.url
Definition	Source of the definition for the extension code - a logical name or a URL.
Control	1..1
Type	uri
Comments	The definition may point directly to a computable or human-readable definition of the extensibility codes, or it may be a logical URI as declared in some other specification. The definition should be version specific. This will ideally be the URI for the Resource Profile defining the extension, with the code for the extension after a #.
Fixed Value	http://hl7.org/fhir/StructureDefinition/iso21090-uncertaintyType
Extension.valueCode
Definition	Value of extension - may be a resource or one of a constrained set of the data types (see Extensibility in the spec for list).
Control	1..1
Binding	Codes specifying the type of probability distribution The codes SHALL be taken from ProbabilityDistributionType
