Expansion based on codesystem Definition Method v6.0.0-ballot2 (CodeSystem)

This value set contains 8 concepts

Code	System	Display	Definition
systematic-assessment	http://hl7.org/fhir/definition-method	Systematic Assessment	Any method of routinely determining whether or not specific outcomes (e.g. adverse events) have occurred, for example through a standard questionnaire, regular investigator assessment, regular laboratory testing, or other method
non-systematic-assessment	http://hl7.org/fhir/definition-method	Non-Systematic Assessment	Any non-systematic method for determining whether or not adverse events have occurred, such as self-reporting by participants or occasional assessment/testing
mean	http://hl7.org/fhir/definition-method	Mean	Aggregated using mean of observed values.
median	http://hl7.org/fhir/definition-method	Median	Aggregated using median of observed values.
mean-of-mean	http://hl7.org/fhir/definition-method	Mean of Means	Aggregated using mean of means (e.g. study mean values).
mean-of-median	http://hl7.org/fhir/definition-method	Mean of Medians	Aggregated using mean of medians (e.g. study median values).
median-of-mean	http://hl7.org/fhir/definition-method	Median of Means	Aggregated using median of means (e.g. study mean values).
median-of-median	http://hl7.org/fhir/definition-method	Median of Medians	Aggregated using median of medians (e.g. study median values).

Explanation of the columns that may appear on this page:

Lvl

A few code lists that FHIR defines are hierarchical - each code is assigned a level. For value sets, levels are mostly used to organize codes for user convenience, but may follow code system hierarchy - see Code System for further information

Source

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). If the code is in italics, this indicates that the code is not selectable ('Abstract')

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
