Definition for the Functional Status Condition resource in the context of electronic transition of care.
A clinical condition, problem, diagnosis, or other event, situation, issue, or clinical concept that has risen to a level of concern.
Most systems will expect a clinicalStatus to be valued for problem-list-items that are managed over time, but might not need a clinicalStatus for point in time encounter-diagnosis.
Condition.clinicalStatus SHALL be present if verificationStatus is not entered-in-error and category is problem-list-item
clinicalStatus.exists() or verificationStatus.coding.where(system='http://terminology.hl7.org/CodeSystem/condition-ver-status' and code = 'entered-in-error').exists() or category.select($this='problem-list-item').empty()
exists(f:clinicalStatus) or exists(f:verificationStatus/f:coding/f:code/@value='entered-in-error') or not(exists(category[@value='problem-list-item']))
If condition is abated, then clinicalStatus must be either inactive, resolved, or remission
abatement.empty() or clinicalStatus.coding.where(system='http://terminology.hl7.org/CodeSystem/condition-clinical' and (code='resolved' or code='remission' or code='inactive')).exists()
not(exists(*[starts-with(local-name(.), 'abatement')])) or exists(f:clinicalStatus/f:coding[f:system/@value='http://terminology.hl7.org/CodeSystem/condition-clinical' and f:code/@value=('resolved', 'remission', 'inactive')])
Condition.clinicalStatus SHALL NOT be present if verification Status is entered-in-error
verificationStatus.coding.where(system='http://terminology.hl7.org/CodeSystem/condition-ver-status' and code='entered-in-error').empty() or clinicalStatus.empty()
not(exists(f:verificationStatus/f:coding[f:system/@value='http://terminology.hl7.org/CodeSystem/condition-ver-status' and f:code/@value='entered-in-error'])) or not(exists(f:clinicalStatus))
If the resource is contained in another resource, it SHALL NOT contain nested Resources
not(parent::f:contained and f:contained)
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()
not(exists(for $id in f:contained/*/f:id/@value return $contained[not(parent::*/descendant::f:reference/@value=concat('#', $contained/*/id/@value) or descendant::f:reference[@value='#'])]))
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()
not(exists(f:contained/*/f:meta/f:versionId)) and not(exists(f:contained/*/f:meta/f:lastUpdated))
If a resource is contained in another resource, it SHALL NOT have a security label
When a resource has no narrative, only systems that fully understand the data can display the resource to a human safely. Including a human readable representation in the resource makes for a much more robust eco-system and cheaper handling of resources by intermediary systems. Some ecosystems restrict distribution of resources to only those systems that do fully understand the resources, and as a consequence implementers may believe that the narrative is superfluous. However experience shows that such eco-systems often open up to new participants over time.
A resource should have narrative for robust management

Observation[classCode=OBS, moodCode=EVN, code=ASSERTION, value<Diagnosis]
The logical id of the resource, as used in the URL for the resource. Once assigned, this value never changes.
The only time that a resource does not have an id is when it is being submitted to the server using a create operation.
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.
All FHIR elements must have a @value or children
hasValue() or (children().count() > id.count())
A set of rules under which this content was created
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.
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.
This element is labeled as a modifier because the implicit rules may provide additional knowledge about the resource that modifies it's meaning or interpretation
The base language in which the resource is written.
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).
Text summary of the resource, for human interpretation
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.
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.
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.
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.
Additional content defined by implementations
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.
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.
Must have either extensions or value[x], not both
exists(f:extension)!=exists(f:*[starts-with(local-name(.), "value")])
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).
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](http://hl7.org/fhir/R4/extensibility.html#modifierExtension).
Modifier extensions are expected to modify the meaning or interpretation of the resource that contains them
Business identifiers assigned to this condition by the performer or other systems which remain constant as the resource is updated and propagates from server to server.
This is a business identifier, not a resource identifier (see [discussion](http://hl7.org/fhir/R4/resource.html#identifiers)). It is best practice for the identifier to only appear on a single resource instance, however business practices may occasionally dictate that multiple resource instances with the same identifier can exist - possibly even with different resource types. For example, multiple Patient and a Person resource instance might share the same social insurance number.
Allows identification of the condition as it is known by various participating systems and in a way that remains consistent across servers.
active | recurrence | relapse | inactive | remission | resolved
The data type is CodeableConcept because clinicalStatus has some clinical judgment involved, such that there might need to be more specificity than the required FHIR value set allows. For example, a SNOMED coding might allow for additional specificity.
This element is labeled as a modifier because the status contains codes that mark the condition as no longer active.
The clinical status of the condition or diagnosis.
Observation ACT .inboundRelationship[typeCode=COMP].source[classCode=OBS, code="clinicalStatus", moodCode=EVN].value
unconfirmed | provisional | differential | confirmed | refuted | entered-in-error
The verification status to support the clinical status of the condition.
verificationStatus is not required. For example, when a patient has abdominal pain in the ED, there is not likely going to be a verification status. The data type is CodeableConcept because verificationStatus has some clinical judgment involved, such that there might need to be more specificity than the required FHIR value set allows. For example, a SNOMED coding might allow for additional specificity.
This element is labeled as a modifier because the status contains the code refuted and entered-in-error that mark the Condition as not currently valid.
The verification status to support or decline the clinical status of the condition or diagnosis.
Observation ACT .inboundRelationship[typeCode=COMP].source[classCode=OBS, code="verificationStatus", moodCode=EVN].value
The categorization is often highly contextual and may appear poorly differentiated or not very useful in other contexts.
'problem' if from PRB-3. 'diagnosis' if from DG1 segment in PV1 message
A subjective assessment of the severity of the condition as evaluated by the clinician.
Coding of the severity with a terminology is preferred, where possible.
Can be pre/post-coordinated into value. Or ./inboundRelationship[typeCode=SUBJ].source[classCode=OBS, moodCode=EVN, code="severity"].value

Unique id for the element within a resource (for internal references). This may be any string value that does not contain spaces.
Extensions are always sliced by (at least) url
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.
A reference to a code defined by a terminology system.
Codes may be defined very casually in enumerations, or code lists, up to very formal definitions such as SNOMED CT - see the HL7 v3 Core Principles for more information. Ordering of codings is undefined and SHALL NOT be used to infer meaning. Generally, at most only one of the coding values will be labeled as UserSelected = true.
Allows for alternative encodings within a code system, and translations to other code systems.
fhir:CodeableConcept.coding rdfs:subPropertyOf dt:CD.coding
Plain text representation of the concept
A human language representation of the concept as seen/selected/uttered by the user who entered the data and/or which represents the intended meaning of the user.
Very often the text is the same as a displayName of one of the codings.
The codes from the terminologies do not always capture the correct meaning with all the nuances of the human using them, or sometimes there is no appropriate code at all. In these cases, the text is used to capture the full meaning of the source.
C*E.9. But note many systems use C*E.2 for this
fhir:CodeableConcept.text rdfs:subPropertyOf dt:CD.originalText
The anatomical location where this condition manifests itself.
Only used if not implicit in code found in Condition.code. If the use case requires attributes from the BodySite resource (e.g. to identify and track separately) then use the standard extension [bodySite](http://hl7.org/fhir/R4/extension-bodysite.html). May be a summary code, or a reference to a very precise definition of the location, or both.
Codes describing anatomical locations. May include laterality.
< 442083009 |Anatomical or acquired body structure|
Indicates the patient or group who the condition record is associated with.
Group is typically used for veterinary or public health use cases.
The Encounter during which this Condition was created or to which the creation of this record is tightly associated.
This will typically be the encounter the event occurred within, but some activities may be initiated prior to or after the official completion of an encounter but still be tied to the context of the encounter. This record indicates the encounter this particular record is associated with. In the case of a "new" diagnosis reflecting ongoing/revised information about the condition, this might be distinct from the first encounter in which the underlying condition was first "known".
.inboundRelationship[typeCode=COMP].source[classCode=ENC, moodCode=EVN]
Estimated or actual date, date-time, or age
Estimated or actual date or date-time the condition began, in the opinion of the clinician.
Age is generally used when the patient reports an age at which the Condition began to occur.
.effectiveTime.low or .inboundRelationship[typeCode=SUBJ].source[classCode=OBS, moodCode=EVN, code="age at onset"].value
The date or estimated date that the condition resolved or went into remission. This is called "abatement" because of the many overloaded connotations associated with "remission" or "resolution" - Conditions are never really resolved, but they can abate.
There is no explicit distinction between resolution and remission because in many cases the distinction is not clear. Age is generally used when the patient reports an age at which the Condition abated. If there is no abatement element, it is unknown whether the condition has resolved or entered remission; applications and users should generally assume that the condition is still valid. When abatementString exists, it implies the condition is abated.
.effectiveTime.high or .inboundRelationship[typeCode=SUBJ].source[classCode=OBS, moodCode=EVN, code="age at remission"].value or .inboundRelationship[typeCode=SUBJ]source[classCode=CONC, moodCode=EVN].status=completed
The recordedDate represents when this particular Condition record was created in the system, which is often a system-generated date.
Individual who recorded the record and takes responsibility for its content.
Individual who is making the condition statement.

Extensions that cannot be ignored even if unrecognized
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).
Modifier extensions are expected to modify the meaning or interpretation of the element that contains them
