CodeSystem: Vital Sign Local Codes (Experimental)

Official URL: https://hl7.eu/fhir/ig/hl7.eu.fhir.protect-child/CodeSystem/vital-sign-local-cs Version: 0.1.0-ci-build
Draft as of 2026-08-11 Computable Name: VitalSignLocalCS

Local codes for vital-sign metrics with no published LOINC code: the vital-signs panel, systolic/diastolic blood pressure percentiles, daytime/night-time mean systolic and diastolic blood pressure, blood pressure load, and nocturnal dip percentages.

This Code system is referenced in the content logical definition of the following value sets:

  • This CodeSystem is not used here; it may be used elsewhere (e.g. specifications and/or implementations that use this content)

This case-sensitive code system https://hl7.eu/fhir/ig/hl7.eu.fhir.protect-child/CodeSystem/vital-sign-local-cs defines the following codes:

CodeDisplayDefinition
sbp-load Systolic blood pressure load (%) Systolic blood pressure load: percentage of readings above the age threshold.
dbp-load Diastolic blood pressure load (%) Diastolic blood pressure load: percentage of readings above the age threshold.
sbp-dip Systolic blood pressure nocturnal dip (%) Nocturnal dip in systolic blood pressure, as a percentage.
dbp-dip Diastolic blood pressure nocturnal dip (%) Nocturnal dip in diastolic blood pressure, as a percentage.
mean-sbp-day Mean systolic blood pressure — daytime (mmHg) Mean daytime systolic blood pressure (ABPM), in mmHg.
mean-dbp-day Mean diastolic blood pressure — daytime (mmHg) Mean daytime diastolic blood pressure (ABPM), in mmHg.
mean-sbp-night Mean systolic blood pressure — night-time (mmHg) Mean night-time systolic blood pressure (ABPM), in mmHg.
mean-dbp-night Mean diastolic blood pressure — night-time (mmHg) Mean night-time diastolic blood pressure (ABPM), in mmHg.
sbp-percentile Systolic blood pressure percentile Systolic blood pressure percentile for age, height and sex.
dbp-percentile Diastolic blood pressure percentile Diastolic blood pressure percentile for age, height and sex.
vital-signs-panel Vital signs panel Panel grouping vital-sign observations.
