4.4.1.221.3 Expansion

This expansion generated 01 Mar 2023

This value set contains 4 concepts

Expansion based on Evidence Directness v5.0.0-draft-final (CodeSystem)

Code	System	Display	Definition
low	http://terminology.hl7.org/CodeSystem/directness	Low quality match between observed and intended variable	Low matching quality between observed and intended variable, so very serious concern for indirectness in evidence interpretation.
moderate	http://terminology.hl7.org/CodeSystem/directness	Moderate quality match between observed and intended variable	Moderate matching quality between observed and intended variable, so serious concern for indirectness in evidence interpretation.
high	http://terminology.hl7.org/CodeSystem/directness	High quality match between observed and intended variable	High matching quality between observed and intended variable, so little concern for indirectness in evidence interpretation.
exact	http://terminology.hl7.org/CodeSystem/directness	Exact match between observed and intended variable	Exact matching quality between observed and intended variable, so no concern for indirectness in evidence interpretation.

Explanation of the columns that may appear on this page:

Lvl

A few code lists that FHIR defines are hierarchical - each code is assigned a level. For value sets, levels are mostly used to organize codes for user convenience, but may follow code system hierarchy - see Code System for further information

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). If the code is in italics, this indicates that the code is not selectable ('Abstract')

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

Definition

An explanation of the meaning of the concept
