      .descriptionProfile for observations that represent question and answer pairs from from surveys/questionnaires such as Social Determinants of Health (SDOH) screening instruments.This profile represents a result of the pregnancy such as live birth, still birth, miscarriage, etc. The subject of this profile is the mother. The focus of this profile is the related Pregnancy Status Observation. The order born in the delivery, live born or fetal death (1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 5th, 6th, 7th, etc.) is contained in Observation.component. All live births and fetal losses are included. If the pregnancy plurality is 1 then this value will also be 1. There will be one Pregnancy Outcome Observation for each fetus delivered live or dead at any time in the pregnancy, regardless of gestational age or if the fetuses were delivered at different dates in the pregnancy. All live births and fetal losses are included. The order born in the delivery, live born or fetal death is contained in Observation.component.

One way is to simply include them in the value set and represent the exceptions in the value.

For a given LOINC question, if the LOINC answer list includes concepts such as 'unknown' or 'not available', they should be used for Observation.value. Where these concepts are not part of the value set for Observation.value, the Observation.dataAbsentReason can be used if necessary and appropriate.' vs 'Null or exceptional values can be represented two ways in FHIR Observations. One way is to simply include them in the value set and represent the exceptions in the value. For example, measurement values for a serology test could be "detected", "not detected", "inconclusive", or "specimen unsatisfactory". The alternate way is to use the value element for actual observations and use the explicit dataAbsentReason element to record exceptional values. For example, the dataAbsentReason code "error" could be used when the measurement was not completed. Note that an observation may only be reported if there are values to report. For example differential cell counts values may be reported only when > 0. Because of these options, use-case agreements are required to interpret general observations for null or exceptional values.'

One way is to simply include them in the value set and represent the exceptions in the value. For example, measurement values for a serology test could be "detected", "not detected", "inconclusive", or "test not done". The alternate way is to use the value element for actual observations and use the explicit dataAbsentReason element to record exceptional values. For example, the dataAbsentReason code "error" could be used when the measurement was not completed. Because of these options, use-case agreements are required to interpret general observations for exceptional values.'
