Definition

When the resource last changed - e.g. when the version changed.

Cardinality0..1
Typeinstant
SummaryTrue
Comments

This value is always populated except when the resource is first being created. The server / resource manager sets this value; what a client provides is irrelevant. This is equivalent to the HTTP Last-Modified and SHOULD have the same value on a read interaction.

Definition

A uri that identifies the source system of the resource. This provides a minimal amount of Provenance information that can be used to track or differentiate the source of information in the resource. The source may identify another FHIR server, document, message, database, etc.

Cardinality0..1
Typeuri
SummaryTrue
Comments

In the provenance resource, this corresponds to Provenance.entity.what[x]. The exact use of the source (and the implied Provenance.entity.role) is left to implementer discretion. Only one nominated source is allowed; for additional provenance details, a full Provenance resource should be used.

This element can be used to indicate where the current master source of a resource that has a canonical URL if the resource is no longer hosted at the canonical URL.

Cardinality0..*
TypeCoding
Binding

Security Labels from the Healthcare Privacy and Security Classification System.

AllSecurityLabels (extensible)

SummaryTrue

Immunization.implicitRulesΣ ?!
ShortA set of rules under which this content was created
Definition

A reference to a set of rules that were followed when the resource was constructed, and which must be understood when processing the content. Often, this is a reference to an implementation guide that defines the special rules along with other profiles etc.

Cardinality0..1
Typeuri
ModifierTrue
SummaryTrue
Comments

Asserting this rule set restricts the content to be only understood by a limited set of trading partners. This inherently limits the usefulness of the data in the long term. However, the existing health eco-system is highly fractured, and not yet ready to define, collect, and exchange data in a generally computable sense. Wherever possible, implementers and/or specification writers should avoid using this element. Often, when used, the URL is a reference to an implementation guide that defines these special rules as part of it's narrative along with other profiles, value sets, etc.

Definition

The base language in which the resource is written.

Cardinality0..1
Typecode
Binding

A human language.

CommonLanguages (preferred)

Binding extensions
MaxValueSetAllLanguages
Comments

Language is provided to support indexing and accessibility (typically, services such as text to speech use the language tag). The html language tag in the narrative applies to the narrative. The language tag on the resource may be used to specify the language of other presentations generated from the data in the resource. Not all the content has to be in the base language. The Resource.language should not be assumed to apply to the narrative automatically. If a language is specified, it should it also be specified on the div element in the html (see rules in HTML5 for information about the relationship between xml:lang and the html lang attribute).

Immunization.text
ShortText summary of the resource, for human interpretation
Definition

A human-readable narrative that contains a summary of the resource and can be used to represent the content of the resource to a human. The narrative need not encode all the structured data, but is required to contain sufficient detail to make it "clinically safe" for a human to just read the narrative. Resource definitions may define what content should be represented in the narrative to ensure clinical safety.

Cardinality0..1
TypeNarrative
Aliasnarrative, html, xhtml, display
Comments

Contained resources do not have narrative. Resources that are not contained SHOULD have a narrative. In some cases, a resource may only have text with little or no additional discrete data (as long as all minOccurs=1 elements are satisfied). This may be necessary for data from legacy systems where information is captured as a "text blob" or where text is additionally entered raw or narrated and encoded information is added later.

ConditionsThe cardinality or value of this element may be affected by these constraints: ele-1

Immunization.contained
ShortContained, inline Resources
Definition

These resources do not have an independent existence apart from the resource that contains them - they cannot be identified independently, and nor can they have their own independent transaction scope.

Cardinality0..*
TypeResource
Aliasinline resources, anonymous resources, contained resources
Comments

This should never be done when the content can be identified properly, as once identification is lost, it is extremely difficult (and context dependent) to restore it again. Contained resources may have profiles and tags In their meta elements, but SHALL NOT have security labels.

ShortExtensions that cannot be ignored
Definition

May be used to represent additional information that is not part of the basic definition of the resource and that modifies the understanding of the element that contains it and/or the understanding of the containing element's descendants. Usually modifier elements provide negation or qualification. To make the use of extensions safe and manageable, there is a strict set of governance applied to the definition and use of extensions. Though any implementer is allowed to define an extension, there is a set of requirements that SHALL be met as part of the definition of the extension. Applications processing a resource are required to check for modifier extensions.

Modifier extensions SHALL NOT change the meaning of any elements on Resource or DomainResource (including cannot change the meaning of modifierExtension itself).

Cardinality0..*
TypeExtension
ModifierTrue
Aliasextensions, user content
Requirements

Modifier extensions allow for extensions that cannot be safely ignored to be clearly distinguished from the vast majority of extensions which can be safely ignored. This promotes interoperability by eliminating the need for implementers to prohibit the presence of extensions. For further information, see the definition of modifier extensions.

Comments

This element deals only with general categories of identifiers. It SHOULD not be used for codes that correspond 1..1 with the Identifier.system. Some identifiers may fall into multiple categories due to common usage. Where the system is known, a type is unnecessary because the type is always part of the system definition. However systems often need to handle identifiers where the system is not known. There is not a 1:1 relationship between type and system, since many different systems have the same type.

SummaryTrue
Comments

When immunizations are given a specific date and time should always be known. When immunizations are patient reported, a specific date might not be known. Although partial dates are allowed, an adult patient might not be able to recall the year a childhood immunization was given. An exact date is always preferable, but the use of the String data type is acceptable when an exact date is not known. A small number of vaccines (e.g. live oral typhoid vaccine) are given as a series of patient self-administered dose over a span of time. In cases like this, often, only the first dose (typically a provider supervised dose) is recorded with the occurrence indicating the date/time of the first dose.

There can be no stigma associated with the use of extensions by any application, project, or standard - regardless of the institution or jurisdiction that uses or defines the extensions. The use of extensions is what allows the FHIR specification to retain a core level of simplicity for everyone.

ConditionsThe cardinality or value of this element may be affected by these constraints: ele-1
Constraints
  • ele-1: All FHIR elements must have a @value or children
    hasValue() or (children().count() > id.count())
  • ext-1: Must have either extensions or value[x], not both
    extension.exists() != value.exists()
Mappings
  • rim: n/a
  • rim: N/A
Immunization.protocolApplied.series
ShortName of vaccine series
Definition

One possible path to achieve presumed immunity against a disease - within the context of an authority.

Cardinality0..1
Typestring
Comments

Note that FHIR strings SHALL NOT exceed 1MB in size

ConditionsThe cardinality or value of this element may be affected by these constraints: ele-1
Constraints
  • ele-1: All FHIR elements must have a @value or children
    hasValue() or (children().count() > id.count())
Mappings
  • rim: n/a
  • rim: N/A
Immunization.protocolApplied.authorityC
ShortWho is responsible for publishing the recommendations
Definition

Indicates the authority who published the protocol (e.g. ACIP) that is being followed.

Cardinality0..1
TypeReference(Organization)
Comments

References SHALL be a reference to an actual FHIR resource, and SHALL be resolveable (allowing for access control, temporary unavailability, etc.). Resolution can be either by retrieval from the URL, or, where applicable by resource type, by treating an absolute reference as a canonical URL and looking it up in a local registry/repository.

ConditionsThe cardinality or value of this element may be affected by these constraints: ele-1
Constraints
  • ele-1: All FHIR elements must have a @value or children
    hasValue() or (children().count() > id.count())
  • ref-1: SHALL have a contained resource if a local reference is provided
    reference.exists() implies (reference.startsWith('#').not() or (reference.substring(1).trace('url') in %rootResource.contained.id.trace('ids')) or (reference='#' and %rootResource!=%resource))
Mappings
  • rim: n/a
  • rim: The target of a resource reference is a RIM entry point (Act, Role, or Entity)
  • rim: N/A
Immunization.protocolApplied.targetDisease
ShortVaccine preventatable disease being targetted
Definition

The vaccine preventable disease the dose is being administered against.

Cardinality0..*
TypeCodeableConcept
Binding

The vaccine preventable disease the dose is being administered for.

ImmunizationTargetDiseaseCodes (example)

Comments

Not all terminology uses fit this general pattern. In some cases, models should not use CodeableConcept and use Coding directly and provide their own structure for managing text, codings, translations and the relationship between elements and pre- and post-coordination.

ConditionsThe cardinality or value of this element may be affected by these constraints: ele-1
Constraints
  • ele-1: All FHIR elements must have a @value or children
    hasValue() or (children().count() > id.count())
Mappings
  • rim: n/a
  • v2: CE/CNE/CWE
  • rim: CD
  • orim: fhir:CodeableConcept rdfs:subClassOf dt:CD
  • rim: N/A
Immunization.protocolApplied.doseNumber[x]
ShortDose number within series
Definition

Nominal position in a series.

Cardinality1..1
TypepositiveInt | string
Comments

The use of an integer is preferred if known. A string should only be used in cases where an integer is not available (such as when documenting a recurring booster dose).

ConditionsThe cardinality or value of this element may be affected by these constraints: ele-1

Immunization.protocolApplied.seriesDoses[x]
ShortRecommended number of doses for immunity
Definition

The recommended number of doses to achieve immunity.

        </coding>
    </valueCodeableConcept>
</extension>


identifier

Usage

Mandatory

Guidance

The identifier element MUST be populated with a globally unique and persistent identifier (that is, it doesn’t change between requests and therefore stored with the source data). This MUST be scoped by a provider specific namespace for the identifier.

Where consuming systems are integrating data from this resource to their local system, they MUST also persist this identifier at the same time.

Example
<identifier>
    <system value="https://foo.bar/id/immunization" />
    <value value="a58ca801-0858-47ce-8075-2df2c73935d1" />
</identifier>


status

Usage

Mandatory

Guidance

The status element has a fixed value of completed for all CareConnect profiles.

Example
<status value="completed" />


notGiven

Usage

Mandatory

Guidance

The status element MUST contain a boolean value:

  • false indicates a vaccination event which has been reported as given
  • true indicates that a vaccination was intended; however, was not given
Example
<notGiven value="false" />


vaccineCode

Usage

Mandatory

Guidance

Vaccine product administered or intended to be administered.

Where the vaccine product that was administered is not known then the null flavour value code UNK MUST be populated.

Example

Where the vaccine product is known.

<vaccineCode>
    <system value="http://snomed.info/sct" />
    <code value="1119349007" />
    <display value="Vaccine product containing only severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 messenger ribonucleic acid (medicinal product)" />
</vaccineCode>

Where the vaccine product is not known.

<vaccineCode>
    <coding>
    <system value="http://hl7.org/fhir/v3/NullFlavor" />
    <code value="UNK" />
    <display value="Unknown" />
</vaccineCode>


patient

Usage

Mandatory

Guidance

A reference to the patient the vaccination event relates to.

Command 'pagelink' could not render: Page not found.

Example
<patient>
    <reference value="patient-4857773456" />
    <display value="TEAK, Anne (Mrs)" />
</patient>


encounter

Usage

Required

Guidance

The consultation within which this immunisation record was captured. This may represent when the vaccination was administered, intended to be administered or when the registered practice was informed of an immunisation administered elsewhere.

Command 'pagelink' could not render: Page not found.

Example
<encounter>
    <reference value="encounter-1234234" />
</encounter>


date

Usage

Required

Guidance

The date (and time if applicable) when the immunization was administered or intended to be administered. If the immunisation was administered elsewhere, this may be an estimated or partial date.

Example
<authoredOn value="2022-10-18T14:06:00Z" />


primarySource

Usage

Mandatory

Guidance

This indicates whether the record is based on information from the person who administered or intended to administer the vaccine.

This MUST be true where the immunisation record was recorded by the person who administered the vaccine or directly on behalf of the administrator of the vaccine (this includes recording the immunisation based on a complete, original, verifiable document from the administration of the vaccine).

This MUST be false where it is a secondary report of a vaccination for example the recollection of the patient, the patient’s parent, carer or guardian or a secondary document.

As this relates to the context of the original source of the immunisation record, a record from a GP2GP transfer is still a primary record if it was originally recorded as primary.

If it is not known whether the record of the vaccination was made from a primary or secondary source, then return the default value of true.

Example
<primarySource value="true" />


reportOrigin

Usage

Required

Guidance

This indicates the source of a secondary reported record.

This provides additional context to the source of the immunisation record where it is not based on information from the person who administered the vaccine. The reportOrigin element can be absent if the record is NOT from a primary source, but the origin of the record is otherwise not recorded / known.

This MUST be absent where the primarySource element has the value of true.

Example
<reportOrigin>
    <coding>
        <system value="http://hl7.org/fhir/stu3/valueset-immunization-origin.html">
        <code value="provider" />
        <display value="Other Provider" />
    </coding>
</reportOrigin>


location

Usage

Required

Guidance

The GP practice, branch surgery or other location where the vaccination occurred or was intended to occur, if known.

If the immunisation record in the GP Clinical System does not record a location for the vaccination, but is linked to a consultation then

  • if the vaccine was administered or was intended to be administered during the consultation the location MUST be populated with the location of the consultation
  • if the vaccine was NOT administered or intended to be administered during the consultation and the location for the vaccination is therefore unknown, then a location MUST be absent

Command 'pagelink' could not render: Page not found.

Example
<location>
    <reference value="location-992891" />
</location>


manufacturer

Usage

Required

Guidance

The manufacturer of the vaccine.

Command 'pagelink' could not render: Page not found.

Example
<manufacturer>
    <reference value="organization-29411" />
</manufacturer>


lotNumber

Usage

Required

Guidance

The batch number of the vaccine.

Example
<lotNumber value="29382/10AV" />


expirationDate

Usage

Required

Guidance

The expiry date of the batch the vaccine is from.

Example
<expirationDate value="2022-10-18T14:06:00Z" />


site

Usage

Required

Guidance

The site on the body where the vaccine was administered.

Note: This MUST be absent for an intended vaccination which was not given.
Example
<site>
    <coding>
        <system value="http://snomed.info/sct" />
        <code value="368208006" />
        <display value="Left upper arm structure (body structure)" />
    </coding>
</site>


route

Usage

Required

Guidance

The route through which the vaccine entered the body.

Note: This MUST be absent for an intended vaccination which was not given.
Example
<route>
    <coding>
        <system value="http://snomed.info/sct" />
        <code value="78421000" />
        <display value="Intramuscular route (qualifier value)" />
    </coding>
</route>


doseQuantity

Usage

Required

Guidance

The amount of the vaccine administered.

Note: This MUST be absent for an intended vaccination which was not given.
Example
<doseQuantity>
    <system value="http://snomed.info/sct" />
    <code value="3318611000001103" />
    <display value="pre-filled disposable injection (qualifier value)" />
</doseQuantity>


practitioner.role

Usage

Required

Guidance

The role of the referenced practitioner, if known, from the v2 Provider Role code system.

  • The code EP (Entering Provider) MUST be used to designate the practitioner as having recorded the vaccination (or reason not given).
  • The code AP (Administering Provider) MUST be used to designate the practitioner as having administered the vaccination or intending to if the vaccine was not given.
Note: This MUST be absent for if the practioner role is not known.
Example
<practitioner>
    <role>
        <coding>
            <system value="http://hl7.org/fhir/v2/0443" />
            <code value="AP" />
            <display value="Administering Provider" />
        </coding>
    </role>
</practitioner>


practitioner.actor

Usage

Mandatory

Guidance

A reference to the practitioner who administered and / or recorded the vaccine.

Where there is only a single practitioner recorded against the immunisation record:

  • if the practitioner recording the vaccination also administered it (or intended to), then associate a practitioner.role code AP (Administering Provider) with practitioner profile
  • if the GP Clinical System cannot determine whether the practitioner administered the vaccine or just recorded the vaccination event or both, then do not return a practitioner.role
Note: This is mandatory where the practitioner.role is populated.

Command 'pagelink' could not render: Page not found.

Example
<practitioner>
    <actor>
        <reference value="practitioner-9093012" />
