clinical-outcomes-observed | http://hl7.org/fhir/focus-characteristic-code | Observed outcomes are clinical outcomes | Used to denote a focus on clinical outcomes, ie evidence variable in role of outcome (measured variable) as observed is considered a "clinical outcome" (patient-important outcome such as mortality, symptoms, function or quality of life). |
population | http://hl7.org/fhir/focus-characteristic-code | Population | The population of interest. |
exposure | http://hl7.org/fhir/focus-characteristic-code | Exposure | The exposure of interest, such as an intervention. |
comparator | http://hl7.org/fhir/focus-characteristic-code | Comparator | The comparator (intervention or control state) of interest. |
outcome | http://hl7.org/fhir/focus-characteristic-code | Outcome | the outcome of interest. |

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 |
Comments | Additional notes about how to use the code |
