4.4.1.633.3 Expansion

This expansion generated 26 Mar 2023

This value set contains 3 concepts

Expansion based on Extension Context Type v5.0.0 (CodeSystem)

Code	System	Display	Definition
fhirpath	http://hl7.org/fhir/extension-context-type	FHIRPath	The context is all elements that match the FHIRPath query found in the expression.
element	http://hl7.org/fhir/extension-context-type	Element ID	The context is any element that has an ElementDefinition.id that matches that found in the expression. This includes ElementDefinition Ids that have slicing identifiers. The full path for the element is [url]#[elementid]. If there is no #, the Element id is one defined in the base specification.
extension	http://hl7.org/fhir/extension-context-type	Extension URL	The context is a particular extension from a particular StructureDefinition, and the expression is just a uri that identifies the extension.

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
