    v: Generated Narrative: CodeSystem dataelement-stringency This case-sensitive code system http://hl7.org/fhir/dataelement-stringency defines the following codes in an undefined hierarchy: Lvl Code Display Definition 1 comparable Comparable The data element is sufficiently well-constrained that multiple pieces of data captured according to the constraints of the data element will be comparable (though in some cases, a degree of automated conversion/normalization may be required). 2 fully-specified Fully Specified The data element is fully specified down to a single value set, single unit of measure, single data type, etc. Multiple pieces of data associated with this data element are fully comparable. 2 equivalent Equivalent The data element allows multiple units of measure having equivalent meaning; e.g. "cc" (cubic centimeter) and "mL" (milliliter). 2 convertable Convertable The data element allows multiple units of measure that are convertable between each other (e.g. inches and centimeters) and/or allows data to be captured in multiple value sets for which a known mapping exists allowing conversion of meaning. 3 scaleable Scaleable A convertable data element where unit conversions are different only by a power of 10; e.g. g, mg, kg. 1 flexible Flexible The data element is unconstrained in units, choice of data types and/or choice of vocabulary such that automated comparison of data captured using the data element is not possible.
