US Core Blood Pressure Profile inherits from the US Core Vital Signs Profile. This profile sets minimum expectations for the Observation resource to record, search, and fetch diastolic and systolic blood pressure observations with standard LOINC codes and UCUM units of measure. It specifies which additional core elements, extensions, vocabularies, and value sets SHALL be present in the resource and constrains how the elements are used. Providing the floor for standards development for specific use cases promotes interoperability and adoption.
Example Usage Scenarios:
The following are example usage scenarios for this profile:
In addition to the Mandatory and Must Support data elements in the US Core Vital Signs Profile, the following data elements must always be present (Mandatory definition) or must be supported if the data is present in the sending system (Must Support definition). They are presented below in a simple human-readable explanation. Profile specific guidance and examples are provided as well. The Formal Views below provides the formal summary, definitions, and terminology requirements.
Note that the “Differential Table” displays elements unique to this profile and the “Key Elements Table” displays a combined view of elements for this profile and the US Core Vital Signs Profile.
Each Observation Must Have:
Each Observation Must Support:
Profile Specific Implementation Guidance:
A code system value SHOULD be supplied for each additional code.
Observation.value[x]
element SHOULD be omittedObservation.component.dataAbsentReason
Observation.component.dataAbsentReason
for the components.Usage:
Description of Profiles, Differentials, Snapshots and how the different presentations work.
