CDA Examples, published by Health Level Seven. This guide is not an authorized publication; it is the continuous build for version 1.0.0 built by the FHIR (HL7® FHIR® Standard) CI Build.

This is panel of the nine common vital signs collected on an adult in metric units, with the additional inclusion of oxygen concentration as a separate observation.
This file includes examples of the following templates:

<!--
Vital signs example with oxygen concentration included.
Note that this is almost identical to the Panel of Vital Signs in Metric Units example[1],
with the exception that this example contains a demonstration of the Structured Docs
Workgroup's recommendation for sending oxygen concentration. However, since this
recommendation generates a schematron warning against CONF:1098-32934, it should be
considered a weaker recommendation than the example it's based on, and implementers
who are certain that receivers support some alternate means of structuring O2
concentration (for instance, by nesting it within an entryRelationship linked to
SpO2, akin to the approach in FHIR US Core[2]) may choose to send this differently.

<!-- Note that C-CDA 3.0 has a different LOINC code requirement for Vital Signs Organizer.
C-CDA 2.1 allows this as long as the 1.1 templateId is not present.
For that reason, the 1.1 templateIds have been omitted in this example.
