Information | StructureDefinition.comment | Values for comment differ: 'Null or exceptional values can be represented two ways in FHIR Observations. One way is to simply include them in the value set and represent the exceptions in the value. For example, measurement values for a serology test could be 'detected', 'not detected', 'inconclusive', or 'specimen unsatisfactory'. The alternate way is to use the value element for actual observations and use the explicit dataAbsentReason element to record exceptional values. For example, the dataAbsentReason code 'error' could be used when the measurement was not completed. Note that an observation may only be reported if there are values to report. For example differential cell counts values may be reported only when > 0. Because of these options, use-case agreements are required to interpret general observations for null or exceptional values.' vs 'This element is recommended for support and was initially flagged as must support but was later determined to be too strong for some types of observation profiles that want to derive from the CA Baseline but do not need a dataAbsentReason concept' |

description | Minimum expectations for an Observation resource when accessed via a International Patient Access API | Proposed constraints on the Observation Resource for general use. This profile sets minimum expectations for the Observation resource to represent various observations if no other, more specific profile is applicable. An observation is a measurement or assertion about a subject (person, group, device, location, or another subject). |
