**The Finnish PHR Body Temperature Profile constrains the Finnish PHR Vital Signs Base Profile as follows**:

- *Observation.code*: 
    - *Observation.code.coding* element is sliced into main LOINC code of the body temperature (slice generalCode) and the more detailed LOINC codes of the body temperature (slice oralCode, slice rectalCode, slice earCode, slice axillaryCode). The main LOINC code for body temperature (slice generalCode) SHALL always be given. Because body position and body site are not given in Finnish PHR Vital Signs observations, the detailed LOINC code for body temperature (only one of the slices) MAY be provided with an additional code. The slicing is closed, so other codes than specified in slices are not allowed.
        - slice1: generalCode, set to mandatory  
            - *code* fixed to value 8310-5 (Body temperature), only fixed value SHALL be used 
        - slice2: oralCode, optional  
            - *code* fixed to value 8331-1 (Oral temperature), only fixed value SHALL be used
        - slice3: rectalCode, optional  
            - *code* fixed to value 8332-9 (Rectal temperature), only fixed value SHALL be used
        - slice4: earCode, optional  
            - *code* fixed to value 76011-6 (Ear temperature), only fixed value SHALL be used
        - slice5: axillaryCode, optional  
            - *code* fixed to value 8328-7 (Axillary temperature), only fixed value SHALL be used
- *Observation.valueQuantity*: 
    - *system* fixed to value http://unitsofmeasure.org, set to mandatory
    - *unit* fixed to value Cel, only fixed value SHALL be used, set to mandatory
    - *code* fixed to value Cel, only fixed value SHALL be used, set to mandatory 
    - *value* set to mandatory
- *Observation.component*: removed, not needed

**Extensions used in the Finnish PHR Body Temperature Profile**:
- [Finnish PHR Application Information extension](FinnishPHRApplicationInformationextension "Finnish PHR Application Information extension") extends Finnish PHR Body Temperature Profile with information about the application that created the resource instance
