Value set &quot;LOINC Codes for Cholesterol&quot;: This is an example value set that includes all the codes for serum cholesterol from LOINC v2.36. This content from LOINC® is copyright © 1995 Regenstrief Institute, Inc. and the LOINC Committee, and available at no cost under the license at http://loinc.org/terms-of-use. <!-- for this example, we use a real URI, since this example does have a canonical address at which it's posted. Alternatively, We could have used an OID, or a UUID. Mote that this isn't the identifier for the LOINC codes themeselves - they belong to LOINC, and it has its own identifier. This is the identifier for this set of codes, and that doesn't change the codes. --> <!-- an imaginary identifier. This is a non FHIR identifier - might be used in a v2 context (though you always need to translate namespaces for v2) --> <!-- for version, we are going to simply use the day of publication. This is also arbitrary - whatever is here is what people use to refer to the version. Could also be a UUID too --> This is an example value set that includes all the LOINC codes for serum/plasma cholesterol from v2.36. This content from LOINC ® is copyright © 1995 Regenstrief Institute, Inc. and the LOINC Committee, and available at no cost under the license at http://loinc.org/terms-of-use. <!-- if we didn't specify the version of LOINC on the include, then we could specify it implicitly by specifying the locked date for the value set So we show this example here, but it's not actually necessary since we also have LOINC version. Note: if you do what this example does, and specify both, you better get it right, and specify the current version of LOINC at the time --> <!-- Including inactive codes means that retired and deprecated codes may still be used in the value set --> <!-- you could have multiple includes, if you wanted to include codes from more than one code system, or include codes with different modes. we don't, in this case --> <!-- In this value set, we provide our own displays. You have to be very careful doing this; it's all too easy to specify a different or lesser meaning, and then people use codes wrongly ()with obvious consequences for clinical safety) You're allowed to do this in a value set for 2 reasons: - people do it anyway - it does make sense to remove common text that's fixed in the context In this case, that's what we're doing here - removing 'serum/plasma' from the names, since that's specified in the value set name --> <!-- this is a different kind of code; whether it should be in a value set like this is a matter of clinical judgement. it's here in this example value set to raise the question for implementers -->
