Physical Activity Implementation Guide
1.0.1 - STU Release 1 United States of America flag

Physical Activity Implementation Guide, published by HL7 International / Patient Care. This guide is not an authorized publication; it is the continuous build for version 1.0.1 built by the FHIR (HL7® FHIR® Standard) CI Build. This version is based on the current content of https://github.com/HL7/physical-activity/ and changes regularly. See the Directory of published versions

Resource Profile: PA Observation - Supporting, Activity Group

Official URL: http://hl7.org/fhir/us/physical-activity/StructureDefinition/pa-observation-activity-group Version: 1.0.1
Standards status: Trial-use Maturity Level: 2 Computable Name: PAObservationActivityGroup

A profile for observations that collects a set of activity-related measures that all pertain to the same physical activity instance.

This Observation helps to organize the various activity-based measures so that it is easy to identify what measures are associated with the same physical activity episode (run, swim, work-out, etc.).

NOTE: While this guide defines a standardized code for the organization of physical activity information, additional codings can also be used if they are appropriate for the same collection of information. As well, observations may be collected under other 'grouping' observations if there's a desire to organize collected data in alternate ways. (E.g. an Observation with members that list all 'running' durations in a particular time-period.)
