description	To promote interoperability and adoption through common implementation, this profile sets minimum expectations for the Observation resource to record, search, and fetch diastolic and systolic blood pressure observations with standard LOINC codes and UCUM units of measure. It is based on the US Core Vital Signs Profile and identifies which *additional* core elements, extensions, vocabularies, and value sets **SHALL** be present and constrains the way the elements are used when using the profile. It provides the floor for standards development for specific use cases.	Defines constraints that represent the minimum requirement for personal characteristic observations which are observations that are usually self-attested but may be attested to on behalf of the subject and are generally only verifiable by the source of attestation (e.g., race, ethnicity, sexual orientation, gender identity and personal pronouns), but may sometimes be verifiable by someone other than the source of attestation (e.g., recorded sex). This profile is intended for draft use only. For further details on this profile see [Draft Specifications for Personal Characteristics](draft_specifications_for_personal_characteristics.html).
