    CodeDisplayDefinition
    braden-sensory-1Completely limitedBraden sensory perception: unresponsive to painful stimuli, or limited ability to feel pain over most of the body.
    braden-sensory-2Very limitedBraden sensory perception: responds only to painful stimuli, or a sensory impairment over half the body.
    braden-sensory-3Slightly limitedBraden sensory perception: responds to verbal commands but cannot always communicate discomfort.
    braden-sensory-4No impairmentBraden sensory perception: responds to verbal commands, no sensory deficit.
    braden-moisture-1Constantly moistBraden moisture: skin kept moist almost constantly by perspiration or urine.
    braden-moisture-2Often moistBraden moisture: skin often but not always moist; linen changed at least once a shift.
    braden-moisture-3Occasionally moistBraden moisture: skin occasionally moist, requiring an extra linen change about once a day.
    braden-moisture-4Rarely moistBraden moisture: skin usually dry; linen changed at routine intervals.
    braden-activity-1BedfastBraden activity: confined to bed.
    braden-activity-2ChairfastBraden activity: ability to walk severely limited or non-existent; cannot bear own weight.
    braden-activity-3Walks occasionallyBraden activity: walks short distances during the day, with or without assistance.
    braden-activity-4Walks frequentlyBraden activity: walks outside the room at least twice a day and inside it every two hours while awake.
    braden-mobility-1Completely immobileBraden mobility: makes no change in body or extremity position without assistance.
    braden-mobility-2Very limitedBraden mobility: makes occasional slight changes in position but cannot make frequent or significant changes independently.
    braden-mobility-3Slightly limitedBraden mobility: makes frequent though slight changes in position independently.
    braden-mobility-4No limitationBraden mobility: makes major and frequent changes in position without assistance.
    braden-nutrition-1Very poorBraden nutrition: never eats a complete meal, or is nil by mouth or on clear fluids for more than five days.
    braden-nutrition-2Probably inadequateBraden nutrition: rarely eats a complete meal; generally eats about half of what is offered.

    braden-nutrition-4ExcellentBraden nutrition: eats most of every meal and never refuses one.
    braden-friction-1ProblemBraden friction and shear: requires moderate to maximum assistance to move; slides against sheets and cannot lift clear of them.
    braden-friction-2Potential problemBraden friction and shear: moves feebly or requires minimum assistance; skin probably slides against sheets to some extent.
    braden-friction-3No apparent problemBraden friction and shear: moves independently in bed and chair, with enough muscle strength to lift clear of the sheets.

Explanation of the columns that may appear on this page:

Level A few code lists that FHIR defines are hierarchical - each code is assigned a level. In this scheme, some codes are under other codes, and imply that the code they are under also applies
System The source of the definition of the code (when the value set draws in codes defined elsewhere)
Code The code (used as the code in the resource instance)
Display The display (used in the display element of a Coding). If there is no display, implementers should not simply display the code, but map the concept into their application
Definition An explanation of the meaning of the concept
Comments Additional notes about how to use the code
