HL7 FHIR Implementation Guide: minimal Common Oncology Data Elements (mCODE) Release 1 - US Realm | STU Ballot 1

This page is part of the HL7 FHIR Implementation Guide: minimal Common Oncology Data Elements (mCODE) Release 1 - US Realm | STU1 (v0.9.1: STU 1 Ballot 1) based on FHIR R4. The current version which supercedes this version is 2.0.0. For a full list of available versions, see the Directory of published versions

Observation

 

The official URL for this profile is:

http://hl7.org/fhir/us/mcode/StructureDefinition/obf-Observation

Represents the result of evaluations (measurements, tests, or questions) that have been performed. Observation has a value representing the result (answer), or an DataAbsentReason indicating why the value is not present. Things observed about the subject can include social and behavioral factors, subjective and objective observations, and assessments. For an Observation, the Code describes the aspect or property of the subject being observed or measured. The Code is the 'question code' that pairs to the 'answer' contained in the Value.

This profile builds on Observation.

This profile was published on Thu Aug 01 00:00:00 EDT 2019 as a active by HL7 International Clinical Interoperability Council.
