      comment:
        v: Element `EvidenceVariable.text` is mapped to FHIR R4 element `EvidenceVariable.text` as `Equivalent`. Contained resources do not have a narrative. Resources that are not contained SHOULD have a narrative. In some cases, a resource may only have text with little or no additional discrete data (as long as all minOccurs=1 elements are satisfied). This may be necessary for data from legacy systems where information is captured as a "text blob" or where text is additionally entered raw or narrated and encoded information is added later.

      comment:
        v: Element `EvidenceVariable.contained` is mapped to FHIR R4 element `EvidenceVariable.contained` as `Equivalent`. This should never be done when the content can be identified properly, as once identification is lost, it is extremely difficult (and context dependent) to restore it again. Contained resources may have profiles and tags in their meta elements, but SHALL NOT have security labels.

      comment:
        v: Element `EvidenceVariable.url` is mapped to FHIR R4 element `EvidenceVariable.url` as `Equivalent`. In some cases, the resource can no longer be found at the stated url, but the url itself cannot change. Implementations can use the meta.source element to indicate where the current master source of the resource can be found.

        v: Element `EvidenceVariable.identifier` is mapped to FHIR R4 element `EvidenceVariable.identifier` as `Equivalent`. Typically, this is used for identifiers that can go in an HL7 V3 II (instance identifier) data type, and can then identify this evidence variable outside of FHIR, where it is not possible to use the logical URI.

      comment:
        v: Element `EvidenceVariable.version` is mapped to FHIR R4 element `EvidenceVariable.version` as `Equivalent`. There may be different evidence variable instances that have the same identifier but different versions. The version can be appended to the url in a reference to allow a reference to a particular business version of the evidence variable with the format [url]|[version]. The version SHOULD NOT contain a '#' - see [Business Version](https://hl7.org/fhir/resource.h.html#bv-format).

  comment:
    v: Element `EvidenceVariable.date` is mapped to FHIR R4 element `EvidenceVariable.date` as `Equivalent`. The date is often not tracked until the resource is published, but may be present on draft content. Note that this is not the same as the resource last-modified-date, since the resource may be a secondary representation of the evidence variable. Additional specific dates may be added as extensions or be found by consulting Provenances associated with past versions of the resource.

This is not necessarily the same individual or organization that developed and initially authored the content. The publisher is the primary point of contact for questions or issues with the evidence variable. This item SHOULD be populated unless the information is available from context.

Element `EvidenceVariable.versionAlgorithm[x]` has no mapping targets in FHIR R4. Typically, this is because the element has been added (is a new element). If set as a string, this is a FHIRPath expression that has two additional context variables passed in - %version1 and %version2 and will return a negative number if version1 is newer, a positive number if version2 is newer, and a 0 if the version ordering can't successfully be determined.

      v: Element `EvidenceVariable.lastReviewDate` has a context of EvidenceVariable based on following the parent source element upwards and mapping to `EvidenceVariable`. Element `EvidenceVariable.lastReviewDate` has no mapping targets in FHIR R4. Typically, this is because the element has been added (is a new element). If specified, this date follows the original approval date. See guidance around (not) making local changes to elements [here](https://hl7.org/fhir/canonicalreso.html#localization).

Element `EvidenceVariable.effectivePeriod` has no mapping targets in FHIR R4. Typically, this is because the element has been added (is a new element). The effective period for an EvidenceVariable determines when the content is applicable for usage and is independent of publication and review dates. For example, a variable intended to be used for the year 2016 might be published in 2015.
