HdBe-AnatomicalLocation

CBBDescriptionStatus
HdBe-AnatomicalLocation

An anatomical location specifies the location (e.g. foot) and laterality (e.g. links) of a bodypart.

Purpose

An anatomic location is used to specify the location of a finding, procedure or measurement.

AnatomicalLocation
DefinitionRoot concept of the AnatomicalLocation partial information model.This root concept contains all data elements of the AnatomicalLocation partial information model.

Invariants
  • ele-1: All FHIR elements must have a @value or children
    hasValue() or (children().count() > id.count())
Mappings
  • rim: n/a
AnatomicalLocation.id
DefinitionUnique id for the element within a resource (for internal references). This may be any string value that does not contain spaces.

AnatomicalLocation.extension
DefinitionMay be used to represent additional information that is not part of the basic definition of the element. 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 can define an extension, there is a set of requirements that SHALL be met as part of the definition of the extension.

Comments

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.

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.
