    .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.Profile for observations about "recorded sex and gender" which, in the past, were often used interchangeably. In this context, sex is a biological construct and pertains to a person’s genetics, hormones, and anatomy. This profile is intended for draft use only. The Cross-Group Projects work group granted a variance to US Core on 06/23/2022 - Jira ticket FHIR-37582. For further details on this profile see [Draft Specifications for Personal Characteristics](draft_specifications_for_personal_characteristics.html).
