    .descriptionTo promote interoperability and adoption through common implementation, this profile sets minimum expectations for the Observation resource to record, search, and fetch pulse oximetry and inspired oxygen observations with a standard LOINC codes and UCUM units of measure. It is based on the US Core Vital Signs Profile and identifies the *additional* mandatory core elements, extensions, vocabularies and value sets which **SHALL** be present in the Observation resource when using this profile. It provides the floor for standards development for specific use cases.Category describing the extent of a tumor metastasis in remote anatomical locations, based on evidence such as physical examination, imaging, and/or biopsy.
