FHIR R4 Symptoms Implementation Guide, published by HL7 International / Clinical Interoperability Council. This guide is not an authorized publication; it is the continuous build for version 0.1.0 built by the FHIR (HL7® FHIR® Standard) CI Build. This version is based on the current content of https://github.com/HL7/fhir-symptoms-ig/ and changes regularly. See the Directory of published versions

This page provides a list of the FHIR artifacts defined as part of this implementation guide.
There are no Global profiles defined
The following artifacts define the specific capabilities that different types of systems are expected to have in order to comply with this implementation guide. Systems conforming to this implementation guide are expected to declare conformance to one or more of the following capability statements.
Symptom System Capabilities |
Capabilities required for a system exchanging symptoms data. |
These define data models that represent the domain covered by this implementation guide in more business-friendly terms than the underlying FHIR resources.
Symptom Logical Model |
Details about the Symptom. |
These define constraints on FHIR resources for systems conforming to this implementation guide.
Assessment Scale Observation |
The Assessment Scale observation contains all information about an assessment scale, its questions, and its answers. |
Symptom Absent Observation |
Used to record the absence of a Symptom as reported by a patient or their caregiver. |
Symptom Observation |
Used to record the presence of a Symptom as reported by the patient or a patient's caregiver. The Symptom observation contains all information given about a patient's symptoms. |
These define constraints on FHIR data types for systems conforming to this implementation guide.
Assessment Scale Information |
Information about the specific scale or assessment used to determine the value. This can be either just a code that represents the assessment scale or can be a reference to an Assessment Scale Observation. |
Surrounding Event Medication |
Medication that when taken affecting the factor |
These define sets of codes used by systems conforming to this implementation guide.
Affective Grade |
Set of codes from LOINC that describe a patient's affective grade |
Common Set of Symptom Codes |
An initial set of Symptom Codes representing the most common symptoms. |
Functional Classification Codes |
The set of codes from WHO's International Classification of Functioning, Disability, and Health code system. |
Speed of Onset |
Set of codes from SNOMED that describe the speed of onset of a patient's symptom |
These define new code systems used by systems conforming to this implementation guide.
Temporary Symptom Codes |
A code system that has codes for use in the IG that will eventually be migrated to other code systems such as LOINC or THO. |
