Logical Model: Age Observation

Official URL: http://hl7.org/cda/us/ccda/StructureDefinition/AgeObservation Version: 2.1
Draft as of 2023-09-29 Computable Name: AgeObservation
Other Identifiers: id: urn:oid:2.16.840.1.113883.10.20.22.4.31

This Age Observation represents the subject’s age at onset of an event or observation. The age of a relative in a Family History Observation at the time of that observation could also be inferred by comparing RelatedSubject/subject/birthTime with Observation/effectiveTime. However, a common scenario is that a patient will know the age of a relative when the relative had a certain condition or when the relative died, but will not know the actual year (e.g., “grandpa died of a heart attack at the age of 50”). Often times, neither precise dates nor ages are known (e.g., “cousin died of congenital heart disease as an infant”).
