Finnish PHR Body Weight profile

Finnish PHR profile for FHIR® Observation used in body weight measurements.

The profile is based on the Finnish PHR Vital Signs Base profile. 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 Body Weight profile constrains the Finnish PHR Vital Signs Base Profile as follows:
