<description value="A categorical assessment, providing a rough qualitative interpretation of the observation
value, such as “normal”/ “abnormal”,”low” / “high”, “better” / “worse”, “susceptible”
/ “resistant”, “expected”/ “not expected”. The value set is intended to be for ANY
use where coded representation of an interpretation is needed.

Notes:
This is being communicated in v2.x in OBX-8 (Observation Interpretation), in v3 in
ObservationInterpretation (CWE) in R1 (Representative Realm) and in FHIR in Observation.interpret
ation. Historically these values come from the laboratory domain, and these codes are extensively
used. The value set binding is extensible, so codes outside the value set that are
needed for interpretation concepts (i.e. particular meanings) that are not included
in the value set can be used, and these new codes may also be added to the value set
and published in a future version.
