This profile of Composition retains the elements and extensions needed to characterize a catalog of healthare products / services / knowledge artefacts, with a set of general properties (name, category, owner, …) 

 
An instance of Composition conforming to this profile represents the general properties of a specific catalog of healthcare items (services/products/knowledge artefacts). Such a resource is referenced by the resources representing the individual items of the catalog. 

**Usages:**

* Refer to this Profile: [Reference to a catalog](StructureDefinition-CatalogReference.md)
* Examples for this Profile: [Composition/example-device-catalog-header](Composition-example-device-catalog-header.md), [Composition/example-lab-compendium-header](Composition-example-lab-compendium-header.md) and [Composition/example-medication-catalog-header](Composition-example-medication-catalog-header.md)
