Concepts
This case-sensitive code system
http://hl7.org/fhir/concept-properties
defines the following codes:
Code | Display | Definition | Status |
status | Status |
A code that indicates the status of the concept. Typical values are active, experimental, deprecated, and retired |
|
inactive | Inactive |
True if the concept is not considered active - e.g. not a valid concept any more. Property type is boolean, default value is false. Note that the status property may also be used to indicate that a concept is inactive |
|
effectiveDate | effectiveDate |
The date at which the concept status was last changed |
|
deprecated | Deprecated |
The date at which a concept was deprecated. Concepts that are deprecated but not inactive can still be used, but their use is discouraged, and they should be expected to be made inactive in a future release. Property type is dateTime. Note that the status property may also be used to indicate that a concept is deprecated |
deprecated |
deprecationDate | Deprecation Date |
The date at which a concept was deprecated. Concepts that are deprecated but not inactive can still be used, but their use is discouraged, and they should be expected to be made inactive in a future release. Property type is dateTime. Note that the status property may also be used to indicate that a concept is deprecated |
|
retirementDate | Retirement Date |
The date at which a concept was retired |
|
notSelectable | Not Selectable |
The concept is not intended to be chosen by the user - only intended to be used as a selector for other concepts. Note, though, that the interpretation of this is highly contextual; all concepts are selectable in some context. Property type is boolean |
|
parent | Parent |
The concept identified in this property is a parent of the concept on which it is a property. The property type will be 'code'. The meaning of 'parent' is defined by the hierarchyMeaning attribute |
|
child | Child |
The concept identified in this property is a child of the concept on which it is a property. The property type will be 'code'. The meaning of 'child' is defined by the hierarchyMeaning attribute |
|
partOf | Part Of |
The concept identified in this property (by its code) contains this concept as a component (i.e. a part-of relationship rather than a subsumption relationship such as elbow is part-of arm |
|
synonym | Synonym |
This property contains an alternative code that may be used to identify this concept instead of the primary code |
|
comment | Comment |
A string that provides additional detail pertinent to the use or understanding of the concept |
|
itemWeight | itemWeight |
A numeric value that allows the comparison (less than, greater than) or other numerical manipulation of a concept (e.g. Adding up components of a score). Scores are usually a whole number, but occasionally decimals are encountered in scores. In questionnaires, the item weight may be represented using the http://hl7.org/fhir/StructureDefinition/itemWeight extension |
