Logical Model: Result Observation

Official URL: http://hl7.org/cda/us/ccda/StructureDefinition/ResultObservation Version: 4.0.0
Draft as of 2025-06-20 Computable Name: ResultObservation
Other Identifiers: urn:ietf:rfc:3986#Uniform Resource Identifier (URI)#urn:hl7ii:2.16.840.1.113883.10.20.22.4.2:2023-05-01

This template represents the results of a laboratory, radiology, or other study performed on a patient.

The result observation includes a statusCode to allow recording the status of an observation. Pending results (e.g., a test has been run but results have not been reported yet) should be represented as active ActStatus.

If code contains a valid non-null LOINC then the xsi:type value SHOULD match the LOINC Scale Part based on the table below:

LOINC Scale Part Value xsi:type
Qn - Quantitative INT, IVL_INT, MO, IVL_MO, REAL, IVL_REAL, PQ, IVL_PQ, RTO, TS, IVL_TS
Ord - Ordinal CD
Nom - Nominal CD
Nar - Narrative ED, ST
OrdQn - Quantitative or Ordinal CD, INT, IVL_INT, MO, IVL_MO, REAL, IVL_REAL, PQ, IVL_PQ, RTO, TS, IVL_TS
Multi - Multi ED
Doc - Document ED

The Result Observation template is a versatile template designed to represent any type of finding resulting from various types of tests. Value set bindings for Observation.code have been created to support implementers, covering three categories: 1) Common Laboratory Tests, 2) Radiology Tests, and 3) Clinical Tests. If a suitable code is not available within these value sets, first use another LOINC code. If no LOINC code is appropriate, a local code may be used.

Changes since version 3.0.0:

  • The resource metadata has changed (description)

    • Formal Views of Template Content

    Description of Template, Differentials, Snapshots and how the different presentations work.
