Resource Profile: Xpandh Blood Pressure Profile

This profile sets minimum expectations for the Observation resource to record, search, and fetch diastolic and systolic blood pressure observations with standard SNOMED CT codes and UCUM units of measure. It is based on the Observation Vital Signs Xpandh profile and identifies the additional mandatory core elements, extensions, vocabularies and value sets which SHALL be present in the Observation resource when using this profile.

Usage:

• Refer to this Resource Profile: Composition: Hospital Discharge Report

Summary

Mandatory: 2 elements(8 nested mandatory elements)
Must-Support: 12 elements
Fixed: 4 elements

Slices

This structure defines the following Slices:

• The element 1 is sliced based on the value of Observation.component
• The element 1 is sliced based on the value of Observation.component.value[x]
