Finnish PHR Peak Expiratory Flow profile
Finnish PHR profile for FHIR® Observation used in maximum expiratory gas flow respiratory system airway by peak flow meter measurements.
The profile is based on the Finnish PHR Vital Signs Base profile UPDATED. This profile alone does not describe all the elements needed and most of the elements are visible only in base profile. This profile describes changes to the base profile and the implementers must also familiarize themself with the base profile.
A full list of the extensions, constraints and a structured definition of this profile can be found in Simplifier. There are also different views of the profile (details, mappings, table, XML, JSON).
The Finnish PHR Peak Expiratory Flow profile constrains the Finnish PHR Vital Signs Base Profile as follows:
