Resource Profile: Xpandh Pediatric Head Occipital Frontal Circumference Profile

Official URL: http://hl7.eu/fhir/ig/xpandh/hdr/StructureDefinition/pediatric-head-occ-front-circumfer-percent-xpandh Version: 0.1.0

This profile sets minimum expectations for the Observation resource to record, search, and fetch body height observations with a standard SNOMED CT code and UCUM units of measure. It is based on the Observation Vital Signs Xpandh profile and identifies the additional mandatory core elements, extensions, vocabularies and value sets which SHALL be present in the Observation resource when using this profile.

Usages:

  • This Profile is not used by any profiles in this Implementation Guide
