A guidance response is the formal response to a guidance request, including any output parameters returned by the evaluation, as well as the description of any proposed actions to be taken.
The GuidanceResponse resource is used to represent the result of invoking a decision support service. It provides a container for the status of the response, any warnings or messages returned by the service, as well as any output data from the service and any suggested actions to be performed.
Use cases for the GuidanceResponse resource include:
In addition, the GuidanceResponse resource is aligned with the CDS Hooks response structure and so provides a mechanism to record the results of CDS Hooks interactions. For a detailed discussion of how the GuidanceResponse resource can be used for this purpose, refer to the Evaluation topic in the Clinical Reasoning module.

Although the GuidanceResponse resource does define search parameters, it is up to the individual decision support service whether or not historical records of guidance requests are preserved. A service might not support searching on GuidanceResponses at all, or it may support searching only for a pre-defined expiration period. The search parameters are defined to provide consumers with a consistent interface to searching if it is available for a specific service implementation. In any case, services should detail the support they do provide using a CapabilityStatement.
Search parameters for this resource. See also the full list of search parameters for this resource, and check the Extensions registry for search parameters on extensions related to this resource. The common parameters also apply. See Searching for more information about searching in REST, messaging, and services.
