Code | Display | Definition |
POS | Positive | A presence finding of the specified component / analyte, organism or clinical sign based on the established threshold of the performed test or procedure. |
NEG | Negative | An absence finding of the specified component / analyte, organism or clinical sign based on the established threshold of the performed test or procedure. \[Note: Negative does not necessarily imply the complete absence of the specified item.\] |

Explanation of the columns that may appear on this page:
Level | A few code lists that FHIR defines are hierarchical - each code is assigned a level. In this scheme, some codes are under other codes, and imply that the code they are under also applies |
System | The source of the definition of the code (when the value set draws in codes defined elsewhere) |
Code | The code (used as the code in the resource instance) |
Display | The display (used in the display element of a Coding). If there is no display, implementers should not simply display the code, but map the concept into their application |
Definition | An explanation of the meaning of the concept |
Comments | Additional notes about how to use the code |
