Expansion based on Allergy Intolerance Type v5.0.0 (CodeSystem)

CodeSystemDisplayDefinition
  allergyhttp://hl7.org/fhir/allergy-intolerance-typeAllergy

A propensity for hypersensitive reaction(s) to a substance. These reactions are most typically type I hypersensitivity, plus other "allergy-like" reactions, including pseudoallergy.

  intolerancehttp://hl7.org/fhir/allergy-intolerance-typeIntolerance

A propensity for adverse reactions to a substance that is judged to be not allergic or "allergy-like". These reactions are typically (but not necessarily) non-immune. They are to some degree idiosyncratic and/or patient-specific (i.e. are not a reaction that is expected to occur with most or all patients given similar circumstances).

Explanation of the columns that may appear on this page:

LvlA 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
SourceThe source of the definition of the code (when the value set draws in codes defined elsewhere)
CodeThe code (used as the code in the resource instance). If the code is in italics, this indicates that the code is not selectable ('Abstract')
DisplayThe 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
