Elements / Details
Every element this profile touches, with its full definition. Element names in the tables link here.
Extension¶
| Short | Medication strength details |
|---|---|
| Definition | Captures medication strength as text and optionally as a structured quantity |
| Cardinality | 0..* |
| Invariants | ele-1, ext-1 |
Extension.id¶
| Short | Unique id for inter-element referencing |
|---|---|
| Definition | Unique id for the element within a resource (for internal references). This may be any string value that does not contain spaces. |
| Cardinality | 0..1 |
| Type | http://hl7.org/fhirpath/System.String |
Extension.extension¶
| Short | Additional content defined by implementations |
|---|---|
| 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. |
