Extension The possible cause(s) of the adverse event - Detailed Descriptions

Detailed Descriptions for the elements in the extension.

Extension
Definition	Details about causes for this adverse event. Note that causes may not always exist or be available.
Control	0..*
Type	Extension
Extension.id
Definition	unique id for the element within a resource (for internal references).
Control	0..1
Type	id
Extension.extension
Definition	May be used to represent additional information that is not part of the basic definition of the element. In order to make the use of extensions safe and manageable, there is a strict set of governance applied to the definition and use of extensions. Though any implementer is allowed to define an extension, there is a set of requirements that SHALL be met as part of the definition of the extension.
Control	0..*
Type	Extension
Alternate Names	extensions, user content
Comments	There can be no stigma associated with the use of extensions by any application, project, or standard - regardless of the institution or jurisdiction that uses or defines the extensions. The use of extensions is what allows the FHIR specification to retain a core level of simplicity for everyone.
Slicing	This element introduces a set of slices. The slicing rules are: ordered Open at End discriminators: url
Extension.extension(item)
Definition	The clinical action or substance believed to be associated with this adverse event.
Control	1..1
Type	Extension
Extension.extension.id
Definition	unique id for the element within a resource (for internal references).
Control	0..1
Type	id
Extension.extension.extension(extension)
Definition	An Extension
Control	0..0
Type	Extension
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	item
Extension.extension.value[x]
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
Type	Choice of: Reference(QICore-Medication), Reference(QICore-MedicationAdministration), Reference(QICore-Device), Reference(QICore-Procedure), Reference(QICore-ImagingStudy), Reference(QICore-Communication)
[x] Note	See Choice of Data Types for further information about how to use [x]
Extension.extension(certainty)
Definition	Certainty of the association between the cause item and the adverse event.
Control	1..1
Type	Extension
Extension.extension.id
Definition	unique id for the element within a resource (for internal references).
Control	0..1
Type	id
Extension.extension.extension(extension)
Definition	An Extension
Control	0..0
Type	Extension
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	certainty
Extension.extension.valueCodeableConcept
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
Type	CodeableConcept
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 #.

Extension.value[x]
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	0..0
Type	Choice of: boolean, integer, decimal, base64Binary, instant, string, uri, date, dateTime, time, code, oid, id, unsignedInt, positiveInt, markdown, Annotation, Attachment, Identifier, CodeableConcept, Coding, Quantity, Range, Period, Ratio, SampledData, Signature, HumanName, Address, ContactPoint, Timing, Reference, Meta
