However, an effort has been made to make this profile functionally equivalent to (a profile derived from) the [HL7 Vital Signs BP profile](http://hl7.org/fhir/StructureDefinition/bp). Instances for both profiles should be highly compatible. This means that it should be possible to mostly validate an instance for this profile against the HL7 Vital Signs counterpart, _except_ for references on `Observation.hasMember` and `Observation.derivedFrom`. The base HL7 Vital Signs profile restricts the targets of these element to itself, which is a requirement that can never be satisfied for instances of profiles that are not directly derived from it. Please note that this profile implements the zib and can therefore be more restricted than its HL7 counterpart. It should be regarded as a derived profile rather than a direct recreation of the HL7 version. **Differences with the HL7 Vital Signs counterpart** * The _required_ terminology binding on `Observation.component` to the [Vital Signs Units](http://hl7.org/fhir/ValueSet/ucum-vitals-common) dataset makes it impossible to use `.component` for representing anything else than a Quantity (like a CodeableConcept or a boolean). This binding has therefore been omitted in the current profile. * The `mustSupport` = _true_ flag found on numerous elements isn't further specified in the HL7 Vital Signs IG, as is required by FHIR. This flag has therefore been omitted from the current profile. * The target restriction on `Observation.hasMember` and `Observation.derivedFrom` to the HL7 Vital Signs profile cannot be fulfilled. This restriction has therefore been omitted from the current profile. It might happen that for some concepts, the zib uses a different (but compatible) way than what is recommended by the [HL7 Vital Signs IG](http://hl7.org/fhir/r4/observation-vitalsigns.html). This is described in the comments for these concepts. There are also some differences in the profiling approach between the current and the HL7 profile, like the use of patterns rather than slices with fixed systems and codes to enforce the inclusion of some coding (for reasons of consistency with other zib profiles, the former approach has been chosen here). Apart from what is mentioned above, constraints, invariants and terminology bindings have been copied from the HL7 Vital Signs profile, but some textual descriptions have been omitted. Note: No equivalent for the HL7 Vital Signs base profile has been created to implement the zib profiles. The profile for this zib has been directly modelled onto its HL7 Vital Signs counterpart." /> <alias value="Bloeddruk" /> <mapping> <identity value="zib-bloodpressure-v3.2.1-2020EN" /> <map value="NL-CM:12.4.1" /> <comment value="BloodPressure" /> </mapping> </element> <element id="Observation.extension:position"> <path value="Observation.extension" /> <sliceName value="position" /> <type> <code value="Extension" /> <profile value="http://hl7.org/fhir/StructureDefinition/observation-bodyPosition" /> </type> </element> <element id="Observation.extension:position.value[x]"> <path value="Observation.extension.value[x]" /> <short value="Position" /> <definition value="The position of the patient when the blood pressure was measured." /> <alias value="Houding" /> <binding> <strength value="extensible" /> <valueSet value="http://decor.nictiz.nl/fhir/ValueSet/2.16.840.1.113883.2.4.3.11.60.40.2.12.4.5--20200901000000" /> </binding> <mapping> <identity value="zib-bloodpressure-v3.2.1-2020EN" /> <map value="NL-CM:12.4.11" /> <comment value="Position" /> </mapping> </element> <element id="Observation.code"> <path value="Observation.code" /> <patternCodeableConcept> <coding> <system value="http://loinc.org" /> <code value="85354-9" /> </coding> </patternCodeableConcept> </element> <element id="Observation.effective[x]"> <path value="Observation.effective[x]" /> <slicing> <discriminator> <type value="type" /> <path value="$this" /> </discriminator> <rules value="open" /> </slicing> </element> <element id="Observation.effective[x]:effectiveDateTime"> <path value="Observation.effective[x]" /> <sliceName value="effectiveDateTime" /> <short value="BloodPressureDateTime" /> <definition value="The date and time at which these blood pressure values were measured." /> <alias value="BloeddrukDatumTijd" /> <type> <code value="dateTime" /> </type> <mapping> <identity value="zib-bloodpressure-v3.2.1-2020EN" /> <map value="NL-CM:12.4.5" /> <comment value="BloodPressureDateTime" /> </mapping> </element> <element id="Observation.note"> <path value="Observation.note" /> <max value="1" /> </element> <element id="Observation.note.text"> <path value="Observation.note.text" /> <short value="Comment" /> <definition value="Comments on the measured blood pressure.
