2.0.0-ballot - ballot United States of America flag

This page is part of the Vital Records Common Profile Library (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: Patient - Child Vital Records

Official URL: http://hl7.org/fhir/us/vr-common-library/StructureDefinition/Patient-child-vr Version: 2.0.0-ballot
Draft as of 2023-12-16 Computable Name: PatientChildVitalRecords

The subject patient (newborn/infant/child) for whom clinical data is included in the report.

This profile adds further constraints to the US Core Patient such as:

  • the patient-birthPlace extension
  • the patient-birthTime extension
  • the patient-multipleBirthTotal extension to record plurality
  • the base FHIR data-absent-reason extension to both name.given and name.family (a name may not yet have been chosen for the baby and US Core Patient requires that Patient.name.given or Patient.name.family or both SHALL be present)
    • use not-applicable if the name hasn’t been chosen

Profile conformance requires that gender be provided, see note on patient gender.
