Detailed Descriptions for the elements in the ConditionDefinition resource.
| ConditionDefinition | |||||||||
| Element Id | ConditionDefinition | ||||||||
| Definition | A definition of a condition and information relevant to managing it. | ||||||||
| Short Display | A definition of a condition | ||||||||
| Cardinality | 0..* | ||||||||
| Type | MetadataResource | ||||||||
| Summary | false | ||||||||
| Invariants |
| ||||||||
| ConditionDefinition.url | |||||||||
| Element Id | ConditionDefinition.url | ||||||||
| Definition | An absolute URI that is used to identify this condition definition when it is referenced in a specification, model, design or an instance; also called its canonical identifier. This SHOULD be globally unique and SHOULD be a literal address at which an authoritative instance of this condition definition is (or will be) published. This URL can be the target of a canonical reference. It SHALL remain the same when the condition definition is stored on different servers. | ||||||||
| Short Display | Canonical identifier for this condition definition, represented as a URI (globally unique) | ||||||||
| Cardinality | 0..1 | ||||||||
| Type | uri | ||||||||
| Requirements | Allows the condition definition to be referenced by a single globally unique identifier. | ||||||||
| Summary | true | ||||||||
| Comments | Can be a urn:uuid: or a urn:oid: but real http: addresses are preferred. Multiple instances may share the same URL if they have a distinct version. The determination of when to create a new version of a resource (same url, new version) vs. defining a new artifact is up to the author. Considerations for making this decision are found in Technical and Business Versions. In some cases, the resource can no longer be found at the stated url, but the url itself cannot change. Implementations can use the meta.source element to indicate where the current master source of the resource can be found. | ||||||||
| Invariants |
| ||||||||
| ConditionDefinition.identifier | |||||||||
| Element Id | ConditionDefinition.identifier | ||||||||
| Definition | A formal identifier that is used to identify this condition definition when it is represented in other formats, or referenced in a specification, model, design or an instance. | ||||||||
| Short Display | Additional identifier for the condition definition | ||||||||
| Note | This is a business identifier, not a resource identifier (see discussion) | ||||||||
| Cardinality | 0..* | ||||||||
| Type | Identifier | ||||||||
| Requirements | Allows externally provided and/or usable business identifiers to be easily associated with the module. | ||||||||
| Summary | true | ||||||||
| Comments | Typically, this is used for identifiers that can go in an HL7 V3 II (instance identifier) data type, and can then identify this condition definition outside of FHIR, where it is not possible to use the logical URI. | ||||||||
| ConditionDefinition.version | |||||||||
| Element Id | ConditionDefinition.version | ||||||||
| Definition | The identifier that is used to identify this version of the condition definition when it is referenced in a specification, model, design or instance. This is an arbitrary value managed by the condition definition author and is not expected to be globally unique. For example, it might be a timestamp (e.g. yyyymmdd) if a managed version is not available. There is also no expectation that versions can be placed in a lexicographical sequence. | ||||||||
| Short Display | Business version of the condition definition | ||||||||
| Note | This is a business versionId, not a resource version id (see discussion) | ||||||||
| Cardinality | 0..1 | ||||||||
| Type | string | ||||||||
| Summary | true | ||||||||
| Comments | There may be different condition definition instances that have the same identifier but different versions. The version can be appended to the url in a reference to allow a reference to a particular business version of the condition definition with the format [url]|[version]. The version SHOULD NOT contain a '#' - see Business Version. | ||||||||

| [x] Note | See Choice of Datatypes for further information about how to use [x] | ||||||||
| Summary | true | ||||||||
| Comments | If set as a string, this is a FHIRPath expression that has two additional context variables passed in - %version1 and %version2 and will return a negative number if version1 is newer, a positive number if version2 and a 0 if the version ordering can't be successfully be determined. | ||||||||
| ConditionDefinition.name | |||||||||
| Element Id | ConditionDefinition.name | ||||||||
| Definition | A natural language name identifying the condition definition. This name should be usable as an identifier for the module by machine processing applications such as code generation. | ||||||||
| Short Display | Name for this condition definition (computer friendly) | ||||||||
| Cardinality | 0..1 | ||||||||
| Type | string | ||||||||
| Requirements | Support human navigation and code generation. | ||||||||
| Summary | true | ||||||||
| Comments | The name is not expected to be globally unique. The name should be a simple alphanumeric type name to ensure that it is machine-processing friendly. | ||||||||

| Short Display | draft | active | retired | unknown | ||||||||
| Cardinality | 1..1 | ||||||||
| Terminology Binding | PublicationStatus (Required) | ||||||||
| Type | code | ||||||||
| Is Modifier | true (Reason: This is labeled as "Is Modifier" because applications should not use a retired {{title}} without due consideration) | ||||||||

| Short Display | Date last changed | ||||||||
| Cardinality | 0..1 | ||||||||
| Type | dateTime | ||||||||
| Alternate Names | Revision Date | ||||||||
| Summary | true | ||||||||
| Comments | The date is often not tracked until the resource is published, but may be present on draft content. Note that this is not the same as the resource last-modified-date, since the resource may be a secondary representation of the condition definition. Additional specific dates may be added as extensions or be found by consulting Provenances associated with past versions of the resource. See guidance around (not) making local changes to elements here. | ||||||||
| ConditionDefinition.publisher | |||||||||
| Element Id | ConditionDefinition.publisher | ||||||||
| Definition | The name of the organization or individual responsible for the release and ongoing maintenance of the condition definition. | ||||||||

| Type | string | ||||||||
| Requirements | Helps establish the "authority/credibility" of the condition definition. May also allow for contact. | ||||||||
| Summary | true | ||||||||
| Comments | Usually an organization but may be an individual. The publisher (or steward) of the condition definition is the organization or individual primarily responsible for the maintenance and upkeep of the condition definition.

| Comments | This description can be used to capture details such as comments about misuse, instructions for clinical use and interpretation, literature references, examples from the paper world, etc. It is not a rendering of the condition definition as conveyed in the 'text' field of the resource itself. This item SHOULD be populated unless the information is available from context (e.g. the language of the condition definition is presumed to be the predominant language in the place the condition definition was created). | ||||||||
| ConditionDefinition.useContext | |||||||||
| Element Id | ConditionDefinition.useContext | ||||||||
