1. NutritionOrder
Definition

A request to supply a diet, formula feeding (enteral) or oral nutritional supplement to a patient/resident.

Control0..*
Alternate NamesNutrition Order, Diet Order, Diet, Nutritional Supplement, Enteral Nutrition
Comments

Referenced by an Order Request (workflow).

2. NutritionOrder.implicitRules
Definition

A reference to a set of rules that were followed when the resource was constructed, and which must be understood when processing the content. Often, this is a reference to an implementation guide that defines the special rules along with other profiles etc.

Control0..1
Typeuri
Is Modifiertrue
Comments

Asserting this rule set restricts the content to be only understood by a limited set of trading partners. This inherently limits the usefulness of the data in the long term. However, the existing health eco-system is highly fractured, and not yet ready to define, collect, and exchange data in a generally computable sense. Wherever possible, implementers and/or specification writers should avoid using this element. Often, when used, the URL is a reference to an implementation guide that defines these special rules as part of it's narrative along with other profiles, value sets, etc.

InvariantsDefined on this element
ele-1: All FHIR elements must have a @value or children (: hasValue() or (children().count() > id.count()))
3. NutritionOrder.extension
Definition

An Extension

May be used to represent additional information that is not part of the basic definition of the resource. 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 can define an extension, there is a set of requirements that SHALL be met as part of the definition of the extension.

Control0..*
TypeExtension
Alternate Namesextensions, 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.

InvariantsDefined on this element

4. NutritionOrder.extension:resource-pertainsToGoal
SliceNameresource-pertainsToGoal
Definition

Indicates that the resource is related to either the measurement, achievement or progress towards the referenced goal. For example, a Procedure to exercise pertainsToGoal of losing weight.

Control0..* This element is affected by the following invariants: ele-1
TypeExtension(pertainsToGoal) (Extension Type: Reference(Goal))
Must Supporttrue
Comments

This extension is limited to subject-specific activity-related resources (events & intents). I.e. This can't be put on Goal or Patient. This association isn't for the purpose of goal management, but for things such as noting that a particular observation result, prescription or other activity is pertinent to the achievement (or possibly non-achievement) of the referenced goal.

InvariantsDefined on this element
ele-1: All FHIR elements must have a @value or children (: hasValue() or (children().count() > id.count()))

5. NutritionOrder.modifierExtension
Definition

May be used to represent additional information that is not part of the basic definition of the resource and that modifies the understanding of the element that contains it and/or the understanding of the containing element's descendants. Usually modifier elements provide negation or qualification. 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. Applications processing a resource are required to check for modifier extensions.

Modifier extensions SHALL NOT change the meaning of any elements on Resource or DomainResource (including cannot change the meaning of modifierExtension itself).

Control0..*
TypeExtension
Is Modifiertrue
Requirements

Modifier extensions allow for extensions that cannot be safely ignored to be clearly distinguished from the vast majority of extensions which can be safely ignored. This promotes interoperability by eliminating the need for implementers to prohibit the presence of extensions. For further information, see the definition of modifier extensions.

Alternate Namescategory
Comments

When resources map to this element, they are free to define as many codes as necessary to cover their space and will map to "proposal, plan or order". Can have multiple codes that map to one of these. E.g. "original order", "encoded order", "reflex order" would all map to "order". Expectation is that the set of codes is mutually exclusive or a strict all-encompassing hierarchy.

A request to supply a diet, formula feeding (enteral) or oral nutritional supplement to a patient/resident.

Control0..*
Alternate NamesNutrition Order, Diet Order, Diet, Nutritional Supplement, Enteral Nutrition
Comments

Referenced by an Order Request (workflow).

2. NutritionOrder.id
Definition

The logical id of the resource, as used in the URL for the resource. Once assigned, this value never changes.

Control0..1
Typeid
Comments

The only time that a resource does not have an id is when it is being submitted to the server using a create operation.

3. NutritionOrder.meta
Definition

The metadata about the resource. This is content that is maintained by the infrastructure. Changes to the content might not always be associated with version changes to the resource.

Control0..1
TypeMeta

Control0..1
Typeuri
Is Modifiertrue

Asserting this rule set restricts the content to be only understood by a limited set of trading partners. This inherently limits the usefulness of the data in the long term. However, the existing health eco-system is highly fractured, and not yet ready to define, collect, and exchange data in a generally computable sense. Wherever possible, implementers and/or specification writers should avoid using this element.

Additional BindingsPurpose

Typecode
Comments

Language is provided to support indexing and accessibility (typically, services such as text to speech use the language tag). The html language tag in the narrative applies to the narrative. The language tag on the resource may be used to specify the language of other presentations generated from the data in the resource. Not all the content has to be in the base language. The Resource.language should not be assumed to apply to the narrative automatically. If a language is specified, it should it also be specified on the div element in the html (see rules in HTML5 for information about the relationship between xml:lang and the html lang attribute).

ele-1: All FHIR elements must have a @value or children (: hasValue() or (children().count() > id.count()))
6. NutritionOrder.text
Definition

A human-readable narrative that contains a summary of the resource and can be used to represent the content of the resource to a human. The narrative need not encode all the structured data, but is required to contain sufficient detail to make it "clinically safe" for a human to just read the narrative. Resource definitions may define what content should be represented in the narrative to ensure clinical safety.

Control0..1
TypeNarrative
Alternate Namesnarrative, html, xhtml, display
Comments

Contained resources do not have narrative. Resources that are not contained SHOULD have a narrative. In some cases, a resource may only have text with little or no additional discrete data (as long as all minOccurs=1 elements are satisfied). This may be necessary for data from legacy systems where information is captured as a "text blob" or where text is additionally entered raw or narrated and encoded information is added later.

ele-1: All FHIR elements must have a @value or children (: hasValue() or (children().count() > id.count()))
7. NutritionOrder.contained
Definition

These resources do not have an independent existence apart from the resource that contains them - they cannot be identified independently, and nor can they have their own independent transaction scope.

Control0..*
TypeResource
Alternate Namesinline resources, anonymous resources, contained resources
Comments

This should never be done when the content can be identified properly, as once identification is lost, it is extremely difficult (and context dependent) to restore it again. Contained resources may have profiles and tags In their meta elements, but SHALL NOT have security labels.
