Birth And Fetal Death (BFDR) - STU2-ballot
2.0.0-ballot - ballot United States of America flag

This page is part of the Vital Records Birth and Fetal Death Reporting (v2.0.0-ballot: STU 2 Ballot 1) based on FHIR (HL7® FHIR® Standard) R4. The current version which supersedes this version is 1.1.0. For a full list of available versions, see the Directory of published versions

Resource Profile: Observation - Mother Delivery Weight

Official URL: http://hl7.org/fhir/us/bfdr/StructureDefinition/Observation-mother-delivery-weight Version: 2.0.0-ballot
Draft as of 2023-12-18 Computable Name: ObservationMotherDeliveryWeight

The weight of the mother at the time of birth/delivery. Migrated from VRCL.

The edit flag extension supports validation as part of the Jurisdiction to NCHS use case and can be ingnored for the provider to jurisdiction use case. The validation checks are done at the jurisdiction prior to sending to the National Statistical Agency and are based on the item specific edit criteria specified in the Birth Edit Specifications for the 2003 Proposed Revision of the U.S. Standard Certificate of Birth and the Fetal Death Edit Specifications for the 2003 Revision of the U.S. Standard Report of Fetal Death.
