This value set contains 13 concepts
| Code | System | Display | Definition |
| Specializes | http://terminology.hl7.org/CodeSystem/hl7TermMaintInfra | The child code is a more narrow version of concept represented by the parent code. I.e. Every child concept is also a valid parent concept. Used to allow determination of subsumption. Must be transitive, irreflexive, antisymetric. | |
| ComponentOf | http://terminology.hl7.org/CodeSystem/hl7TermMaintInfra | The child code is a part of the concept represented by the parent code. Used to determine allowed nesting, for example of address components. Must be transitive, irreflexive, antisymetric. | |
| GroupedBy | http://terminology.hl7.org/CodeSystem/hl7TermMaintInfra | The child code is a part of a grouping represented by the parent code. Used to determine navigational hierarchy not based on a specializes or component relationship. E.g. ICD9 hierarchy. Is transitive, irreflexive and antisymetric | |
| LessThan | http://terminology.hl7.org/CodeSystem/hl7TermMaintInfra | For coded ordeinal code systems, indicates that the specified code is considered less than the related code. Used to determine relationships for coded ordinals. Must be transitive, irreflexive, antisymetric. | |
| DefinitionallyQualifies | http://terminology.hl7.org/CodeSystem/hl7TermMaintInfra | Identifies a code that can act as a qualifier for the referenced code, both as part of concept definition within the code system and as part of run-time concept definition to determine concepts allowed for use as qualifiers for a concept within a CD datatype. Must be non-transitive, irreflexive. | |
| NonDefinitionallyQualifies | http://terminology.hl7.org/CodeSystem/hl7TermMaintInfra | Same as definitionally qualifies, but restricted to only being used at run-time. Must be non-transitive, irreflexive. | |
| Generalizes | http://terminology.hl7.org/CodeSystem/hl7TermMaintInfra | Inverse of Specializes. Only included as a derived relationship | |
| Component | http://terminology.hl7.org/CodeSystem/hl7TermMaintInfra | Inverse of ComponentOf. Only included as a derived relationship | |
| InGroup | http://terminology.hl7.org/CodeSystem/hl7TermMaintInfra | Inverse of GroupedBy. Only included as a derived relationship | |
| GreaterThan | http://terminology.hl7.org/CodeSystem/hl7TermMaintInfra | Inverse of LessThan. Only included as a derived relationship | |
| DefinitionallyQualifiedBy | http://terminology.hl7.org/CodeSystem/hl7TermMaintInfra | Inverse of DefinitionallyQualifies. Only included as a derived relationship | |
| NonDefinitionallyQualifiedBy | http://terminology.hl7.org/CodeSystem/hl7TermMaintInfra | Inverse of NonDefinitionallyQualifies. Only included as a derived relationship | |
| Other | http://terminology.hl7.org/CodeSystem/hl7TermMaintInfra | The child code has a relationship with the parent that does not follow one of the pre-defined stereotypical patterns. Any application behavior based on the relationship must be custom-coded. Transitivity, Reflexivity and Symmetry must be asserted |
Explanation of the columns that may appear on this page:
| Level | A few code lists that FHIR defines are hierarchical - each code is assigned a level. In this scheme, some codes are under other codes, and imply that the code they are under also applies |
| System | The source of the definition of the code (when the value set draws in codes defined elsewhere) |
| Code | The code (used as the code in the resource instance) |
| Display | The display (used in the display element of a Coding). If there is no display, implementers should not simply display the code, but map the concept into their application |
| Definition | An explanation of the meaning of the concept |
| Comments | Additional notes about how to use the code |
