ValueSet
Expansion performed internally based on codesystem Audit Event Severity v6.0.0-ballot3 (CodeSystem)
This value set contains 8 concepts
| System | Code | Display | Definition |
http://hl7.org/fhir/audit-event-severity |
emergency | Emergency | System is unusable. e.g., This level SHOULD only be reported by infrastructure and SHOULD NOT be used by applications. |
http://hl7.org/fhir/audit-event-severity |
alert | Alert | Notification SHOULD be sent to trigger action be taken. e.g., Loss of the primary network connection needing attention. |
http://hl7.org/fhir/audit-event-severity |
critical | Critical | Critical conditions. e.g., A failure in the system's primary application that will reset automatically. |
http://hl7.org/fhir/audit-event-severity |
error | Error | Error conditions. e.g., An application has exceeded its file storage limit and attempts to write are failing. |
http://hl7.org/fhir/audit-event-severity |
warning | Warning | Warning conditions. May indicate that an error will occur if action is not taken. e.g., A non-root file system has only 2GB remaining. |
http://hl7.org/fhir/audit-event-severity |
notice | Notice | Notice messages. Normal but significant condition. Events that are unusual, but not error conditions. |
http://hl7.org/fhir/audit-event-severity |
informational | Informational | Normal operational messages that require no action. e.g., An application has started, paused, or ended successfully. |
http://hl7.org/fhir/audit-event-severity |
debug | Debug | Debug-level messages. Information useful to developers for debugging the application. |

Explanation of the columns that may appear on this page:
| Lvl | A few code lists that FHIR defines are hierarchical - each code is assigned a level. For value sets, levels are mostly used to organize codes for user convenience, but may follow code system hierarchy - see Code System for further information |
| Source | The source of the definition of the code (when the value set draws in codes defined elsewhere) |
| Code | The code (used as the code in the resource instance). If the code is in italics, this indicates that the code is not selectable ('Abstract') |
| Display | The display (used in the display element of a Coding). If there is no display, implementers should not simply display the code, but map the concept into their application |
| Definition | An explanation of the meaning of the concept |
| Comments | Additional notes about how to use the code |
