A ratio of two Quantity values - a numerator and a denominator

Definition

A relationship of two Quantity values - expressed as a numerator and a denominator.

Comments

The Ratio datatype should only be used to express a relationship of two numbers if the relationship cannot be suitably expressed using a Quantity and a common unit. Where the denominator value is known to be fixed to "1", Quantity should be used instead of Ratio.

Conditions

The 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())
  • rat-1: Numerator and denominator SHALL both be present, or both are absent. If both are absent, there SHALL be some extension present
    (numerator.empty() xor denominator.exists()) and (numerator.exists() or extension.exists())

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 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.

A measured or measurable amount

Definition

A measured amount (or an amount that can potentially be measured). Note that measured amounts include amounts that are not precisely quantified, including amounts involving arbitrary units and floating currencies.

Comments

The context of use may frequently define what kind of quantity this is and therefore what kind of units can be used. The context of use may also restrict the values for the comparator.
