Canonical_URL	Status	Current_Version	Last_Updated	Description
https://fhir.hl7.org.uk/StructureDefinition/UKCore-Immunization	active	2.4.0	2023-12-12	This profile defines the UK constraints and extensions on the International FHIR resource Immunization.

Profile_Purpose
This profile is intended to cover the recording of current and historical administration of vaccines to individuals across all healthcare disciplines in all care settings and all regions. This profile does not support the administration of non-vaccine agents, even those that may have or claim to have immunological effects. While the terms "immunisation" and "vaccination" are not clinically identical, for the purposes of the FHIR profile, the terms are used synonymously.

Immunization	I		Immunization	Element id Immunization Short description Immunization event information Definition Describes the event of a patient being administered a vaccine or a record of an immunization as reported by a patient, a clinician or another party. Data type Immunization Constraints dom-2: If the resource is contained in another resource, it SHALL NOT contain nested Resources `contained.contained.empty()` dom-4: If a resource is contained in another resource, it SHALL NOT have a meta.versionId or a meta.lastUpdated `contained.meta.versionId.empty() and contained.meta.lastUpdated.empty()` dom-3: If the resource is contained in another resource, it SHALL be referred to from elsewhere in the resource or SHALL refer to the containing resource `contained.where((('#'+id in (%resource.descendants().reference \| %resource.descendants().as(canonical) \| %resource.descendants().as(uri) \| %resource.descendants().as(url))) or descendants().where(reference = '#').exists() or descendants().where(as(canonical) = '#').exists() or descendants().where(as(canonical) = '#').exists()).not()).trace('unmatched', id).empty()` dom-6: A resource should have narrative for robust management text.`div`.exists() dom-5: If a resource is contained in another resource, it SHALL NOT have a security label `contained.meta.security.empty()` ukcore-imm-001: If the immunization was not given, then `Immunization.status` value SHALL = 'not-done', and the `Immunization.statusReason` SHALL be populated `(status != 'not-done') or (status = 'not-done' and statusReason.exists())` Mappings rim: Entity. Role, or Act workflow: Event v2: VXU_V04 rim: SubstanceAdministration
id	Σ	0..1	string	There are no (further) constraints on this element Element id Immunization.id Short description Logical id of this artifact Definition The logical id of the resource, as used in the URL for the resource. Once assigned, this value never changes. Comments The only time that a resource does not have an id is when it is being submitted to the server using a create operation. Data type string
meta	Σ	0..1	Meta	There are no (further) constraints on this element Element id Immunization.meta Short description Metadata about the resource Definition The metadata about the resource. This is content that is maintained by the infrastructure. Changes to the content might not always be associated with version changes to the resource. Data type Meta 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
implicitRules	Σ ?!	0..1	uri	There are no (further) constraints on this element Element id Immunization.implicitRules Short description A 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. 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. Data type uri Constraints ele-1: All FHIR elements must have a @value or children `hasValue() or (children().count() > id.count())` Mappings rim: n/a
language		0..1	codeBinding	There are no (further) constraints on this element Element id Immunization.language Short description Language of the resource content Definition The base language in which the resource is written. 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). Data type code Binding A human language. CommonLanguages (preferred) Constraints ele-1: All FHIR elements must have a @value or children `hasValue() or (children().count() > id.count())` Mappings rim: n/a
text		0..1	Narrative	There are no (further) constraints on this element Element id Immunization.text Short description Text summary of the resource, for human interpretation Alternate names narrative, html, xhtml, display 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. 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. Data type Narrative 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 rim: Act.text?
contained		0..*	Resource	There are no (further) constraints on this element Element id Immunization.contained Short description Contained, inline Resources Alternate names inline resources, anonymous resources, contained 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. 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. Data type Resource Mappings rim: Entity. Role, or Act rim: N/A
extension	I	0..*	Extension	There are no (further) constraints on this element Element id Immunization.extension Short description Additional content defined by implementations Alternate names extensions, user content Definition May be used to represent additional information that is not part of the basic definition of the resource. 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. Data type Extension Sliced: Unordered, Open, by url(Value) Extensions are always sliced by (at least) url 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
parentPresent	I	0..1	Extension(boolean)	Element id Immunization.extension:parentPresent Short description Indicates if a parent was present at an immunisation. Alternate names extensions, user content Definition Was a parent of the patient present at an immunisation? 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. Data type Extension(boolean) Extension URL https://fhir.hl7.org.uk/StructureDefinition/Extension-UKCore-ParentPresent 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
vaccinationProcedure	I	0..1	Extension(CodeableConcept)	Element id Immunization.extension:vaccinationProcedure Short description Used to hold an immunisation procedure code. This extension SHOULD be used when `Immunization.status`=`completed`. This relates to the vaccine that was administered (procedure) and SHOULD be a SNOMED CT from `ValueSet-UKCore-VaccinationProcedure`. Alternate names extensions, user content Definition An extension to hold an immunization procedure code. 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. Data type Extension(CodeableConcept) Extension URL https://fhir.hl7.org.uk/StructureDefinition/Extension-UKCore-VaccinationProcedure 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
modifierExtension	?! I	0..*	Extension	There are no (further) constraints on this element Element id Immunization.modifierExtension Short description Extensions that cannot be ignored Alternate names extensions, user content 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). 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 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. Data type Extension Sliced: Unordered, Open, by url(Value) Extensions are always sliced by (at least) url 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
identifier		0..*	Identifier	There are no (further) constraints on this element Element id Immunization.identifier Short description Business identifier Definition A unique identifier assigned to this immunization record. Data type Identifier Constraints ele-1: All FHIR elements must have a @value or children `hasValue() or (children().count() > id.count())` Mappings rim: n/a v2: CX / EI (occasionally, more often EI maps to a resource id or a URL) rim: II - The Identifier class is a little looser than the v3 type II because it allows URIs as well as registered OIDs or GUIDs.

status	S Σ ?!	1..1	codeBinding	Element id Immunization.status Short description Indicates the current status of the immunization event. Definition Indicates the current status of the immunization event. Comments Will generally be set to show that the immunization has been completed or not done. This element is labeled as a modifier because the status contains codes that mark the resource as not currently valid. Data type code Binding A set of codes indicating the current status of an Immunization.

Definition The patient who either received or did not receive the immunization. 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.

occurrence[x]	S Σ	1..1		Element id Immunization.occurrence[x] Short description When the vaccine was administered or was to be administered. Definition Date vaccine administered or was to be administered. 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.

Immunization.id
Definition	The logical id of the resource, as used in the URL for the resource. Once assigned, this value never changes.
Cardinality	0...1
Type	string
Summary	True
Comments	The only time that a resource does not have an id is when it is being submitted to the server using a create operation.
Immunization.meta
Definition	The metadata about the resource. This is content that is maintained by the infrastructure. Changes to the content might not always be associated with version changes to the resource.
Cardinality	0...1

Immunization.implicitRules
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.
Cardinality	0...1
Type	uri
Modifier	True
Summary	True
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.
Invariants	ele-1: All FHIR elements must have a @value or children `hasValue() or (children().count() > id.count())`

Immunization.language
Definition	The base language in which the resource is written.
Cardinality	0...1
Type	code
Binding	A human language. CommonLanguages (preferred)
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).
Invariants	ele-1: All FHIR elements must have a @value or children `hasValue() or (children().count() > id.count())`
Mappings	rim: n/a
Immunization.text
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.
Cardinality	0...1
Type	Narrative
Alias	narrative, 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.
Invariants	ele-1: All FHIR elements must have a @value or children `hasValue() or (children().count() > id.count())`
Mappings	rim: n/a rim: N/A rim: Act.text?
Immunization.contained
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.
Cardinality	0...*
Type	Resource
Alias	inline 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.
Mappings	rim: Entity. Role, or Act rim: N/A
Immunization.extension
Definition	May be used to represent additional information that is not part of the basic definition of the resource. 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.

Type	Extension
Alias	extensions, user content
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.

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.

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

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.

Immunization.fundingSource
Definition	Indicates the source of the vaccine actually administered. This may be different than the patient eligibility (e.g. the patient may be eligible for a publically purchased vaccine but due to inventory issues, vaccine purchased with private funds was actually administered).

Cardinality	0...*
Type	BackboneElement
Comments	A reaction may be an indication of an allergy or intolerance and, if this is determined to be the case, it should be recorded as a new AllergyIntolerance resource instance as most systems will not query against past Immunization.reaction elements.

Immunization.reaction.extension
Definition	May 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.
Cardinality	0...*
Type	Extension
Alias	extensions, user content
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.

Immunization.reaction.modifierExtension
Definition	May be used to represent additional information that is not part of the basic definition of the element and that modifies the understanding of the element in which it is contained 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 can 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).
Cardinality	0...*
Type	Extension
Modifier	True
Summary	True
Alias	extensions, user content, modifiers
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.

Profile Specific Implementation Guidance:

Mandatory and Must Support Data Elements

The following elements are identified as MustSupport, and it is expected that consumers and suppliers SHALL support these as per the MustSupport Guidance.

Element	Reason
`Immunization.status`	Indicates the current status of the immunization event.
`Immunization.vaccineCode`	Vaccine that was administered or was to be administered.
`Immunization.patient`	The patient who either received or did not receive the immunization.
`Immunization.occurrence[x]`	When the vaccine was administered or was to be administered.
`Immunization.manufacturer`	Name of vaccine manufacturer.
`Immunization.lotNumber`	Lot number of the vaccine.

Immunization.extension

Extension	Context	Link	Comment
parentPresent	Immunization.extension	https://fhir.hl7.org.uk/StructureDefinition/Extension-UKCore-ParentPresent	Indicates if a parent was present at an immunisation.
vaccinationProcedure	Immunization.extension	https://fhir.hl7.org.uk/StructureDefinition/Extension-UKCore-VaccinationProcedure	Used to hold an immunisation procedure code. This extension SHOULD be used when `Immunization.status`=`completed`. This relates to the vaccine that was administered (procedure) and SHOULD be a SNOMED CT from `ValueSet-UKCore-VaccinationProcedure`.

https://fhir.hl7.org.uk/StructureDefinition/Extension-UKCore-VaccinationProcedure

Used to hold an immunisation procedure code.

This extension SHOULD be used when Immunization.status=completed.

This relates to the vaccine that was administered (procedure) and SHOULD be a SNOMED CT from ValueSet-UKCore-VaccinationProcedure.

Constraints (differential)

More information about the constraints on the UKCore-Immunization profile can be found below.

Key	Severity	Expression	Human_Description
ukcore-imm-001	error	(status != 'not-done') or (status = 'not-done' and statusReason.exists())	If the immunization was not given, then `Immunization.status` value SHALL = 'not-done', and the `Immunization.statusReason` SHALL be populated

Breaking Change

The key for this constraint was changed from ukcore-imm-1 in UK Core STU1 Sequence, to ukcore-imm-001 in this release, as a result of the UK Core STU2 Sequence ballot reconciliation actions.

`status`

Indicates the current status of the immunisation event.

For a vaccination that has been administered, the status will be completed. This status does not indicate a vaccination course has been completed. When the vaccination has not been administered, the status will be not-done and a Immunization.statusReason SHALL be populated.

`vaccineCode`

Vaccine that was administered or was to be administered.

This indicates vaccine product administered. This SHOULD be a dm+d code from ValueSet UKCore-VaccineCode. AMPP codes SHOULD NOT be used.

Example of `Immunization.vaccineCode` usage:

`encounter`

Where possible, it is expected that the resource being referenced SHOULD conform to Profile UKCore-Encounter.

`primarySource`

An indication that the content of the record is based on information from the person who administered the vaccine. This reflects the context under which the data was originally recorded.

Set as true when the content of the record is based on information from the person performing the vaccine or who has clinical responsibility for the vaccination, and the system can be considered a primary source of the vaccination event. Set as false when the information has not come directly from people performing the vaccine (e.g. a patient or patient’s carer), and the system should not be treated as a primary source for this record. This is used to help identify and eliminate duplicate records held centrally.

`location`

The service delivery location where the vaccine administration occurred by reference to the location.

Where possible, it is expected that the resource being referenced SHOULD conform to Profile UKCore-Location.

`manufacturer`

Name of vaccine manufacturer by reference to the organisation. Where possible, it is expected that the resource being referenced SHOULD conform to Profile UKCore-Organization.

Example of `Immunization.manufacturer` usage:

`doseQuantity`

The quantity of vaccine product that was administered.

By preference, use UCUM units of measure. Examples of when a UCUM unit of measure would be used are “gram” or “milliliter” or “percent”.

Where a UCUM unit of measure is not defined, use a SNOMED CT unit of measure. Examples of when a SNOMED CT unit of measure would typically be used are “tablet”, “capsule” or “ampule”.

`reasonReference`

Why immunisation occurred by reference to Condition, Observation or DiagnosticReport.

Where possible, it is expected that the resource being referenced SHOULD conform to one of the following UK Core profiles:

`protocolApplied`

The protocol (set of recommendations) being followed by the provider who administered the dose.

`protocolApplied.targetDisease`

It is recommended for international/EU interoperability that Immunization.protocolApplied.targetDisease is populated. The SNOMED CT concept SHOULD be from EU COVID-19 Diseases or Vaccine Target Diseases (GPS) - IPS

Disease	UK SNOMED self
COVID-19	840539006
Others	See "Vaccine Target Diseases (GPS) - IPS"

`protocolApplied.doseNumberPositiveInt`

Nominal position in a series of vaccines, N.B. This field will not always be reliable, therefore for Covid vaccinations, the vaccination procedure code or situation code SHOULD be used as that includes the dose number.

Example of `Immunization.protocolApplied` usage:
