+ Warning: Name should be usable as an identifier for the module by machine processing
applications such as code generation
Elements defined in Ancestors:
The logical id of the resource, as used in the URL for the resource. Once assigned, this
value never changes.,
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.,
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.,
,
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.,
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.,
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.,
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).

EvidenceVariable.url : An absolute URI that is used to identify this evidence variable
when it is referenced in a specification, model, design or an instance; also called its
canonical identifier. This SHOULD be globally unique and SHOULD be a literal address at
which at which an authoritative instance of this evidence variable is (or will be) published.
This URL can be the target of a canonical reference. It SHALL remain the same when the
evidence variable is stored on different servers.

EvidenceVariable.version : The identifier that is used to identify this version of the
evidence variable when it is referenced in a specification, model, design or instance.
This is an arbitrary value managed by the evidence variable author and is not expected
to be globally unique. For example, it might be a timestamp (e.g. yyyymmdd) if a managed
version is not available. There is also no expectation that versions can be placed in
a lexicographical sequence. To provide a version consistent with the Decision Support
Service specification, use the format Major.Minor.Revision (e.g. 1.0.0). For more information
on versioning knowledge assets, refer to the Decision Support Service specification. Note
that a version is required for non-experimental active artifacts.

when things are planned, expected or requested to occur. The most common usage is in dosage
instructions for medications. They are also used when planning care of various kinds,
and may be used for reporting the schedule to which past regular activities were carried
out.

Documentation for this format
The EvidenceVariable resource describes a "PICO" element that knowledge (evidence,
assertion, recommendation) is about.
Need to be able to define and reuse the definition of individual elements of a research
question.
The EvidenceVariable resource describes a "PICO" element that knowledge (evidence,
assertion, recommendation) is about.
PICO stands for Population (the population within which exposures are being compared),
Intervention (the conditional state or exposure state being described for its effect on
outcomes), Comparison (the alternative conditional state or alternative exposure state
being compared against), and Outcome (the result or effect of the intervention in the
population).
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(canonica
l) | %resource.descendants().as(uri) | %resource.descendants().as(url))) or descendants().where(refer
ence = '#').exists() or descendants().where(as(canonical) = '#').exists() or descendants().where(as(c
anonical) = '#').exists()).not()).trace('unmatched', id).empty()
not(exists(for $id in f:contained/*/f:id/@value return $contained[not(parent::*/descendant::f:refere
nce/@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
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.
Name should be usable as an identifier for the module by machine processing applications
such as code generation
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.
<!-- Note: special primitive values have a FHIRPath system type. e.g. this is compiler magic
(j) -->
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.
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
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).
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.
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.
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).
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.
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](extensibility.ht
ml#modifierExtension).
Modifier extensions are expected to modify the meaning or interpretation of the resource
that contains them
An absolute URI that is used to identify this evidence variable when it is referenced
in a specification, model, design or an instance; also called its canonical identifier.
This SHOULD be globally unique and SHOULD be a literal address at which at which an authoritative
instance of this evidence variable is (or will be) published. This URL can be the target
of a canonical reference. It SHALL remain the same when the evidence variable is stored
on different servers.
Can be a urn:uuid: or a urn:oid: but real http: addresses are preferred. Multiple instances
may share the same URL if they have a distinct version.
The determination of when to create a new version of a resource (same url, new version)
vs. defining a new artifact is up to the author. Considerations for making this decision
are found in [Technical and Business Versions](resource.html#versions).
In some cases, the resource can no longer be found at the stated url, but the url itself
cannot change. Implementations can use the [meta.source](resource.html#meta) element to
indicate where the current master source of the resource can be found.
A formal identifier that is used to identify this evidence variable when it is represented
in other formats, or referenced in a specification, model, design or an instance.
Typically, this is used for identifiers that can go in an HL7 V3 II (instance identifier)
data type, and can then identify this evidence variable outside of FHIR, where it is not
possible to use the logical URI.
Allows externally provided and/or usable business identifiers to be easily associated
with the module.
The identifier that is used to identify this version of the evidence variable when it
is referenced in a specification, model, design or instance. This is an arbitrary value
managed by the evidence variable author and is not expected to be globally unique. For
example, it might be a timestamp (e.g. yyyymmdd) if a managed version is not available.
There is also no expectation that versions can be placed in a lexicographical sequence.
To provide a version consistent with the Decision Support Service specification, use the
format Major.Minor.Revision (e.g. 1.0.0). For more information on versioning knowledge
assets, refer to the Decision Support Service specification. Note that a version is required
for non-experimental active artifacts.
There may be different evidence variable instances that have the same identifier but different
versions. The version can be appended to the url in a reference to allow a reference
to a particular business version of the evidence variable with the format [url]|[version].
A natural language name identifying the evidence variable. This name should be usable
as an identifier for the module by machine processing applications such as code generation.
The name is not expected to be globally unique. The name should be a simple alphanumeric
type name to ensure that it is machine-processing friendly.
This name does not need to be machine-processing friendly and may contain punctuation,
white-space, etc.
The short title provides an alternate title for use in informal descriptive contexts where
the full, formal title is not necessary.
Need to be able to reference the content by a short description, but still provide a longer,
more formal title for the content.
An explanatory or alternate title for the EvidenceVariable giving additional information
about its content.
This is labeled as "Is Modifier" because applications should not use a retired
{{title}} without due consideration
The date (and optionally time) when the evidence variable was published. The date must
change when the business version changes and it must change if the status code changes.
In addition, it should change when the substantive content of the evidence variable changes.
Note that this is not the same as the resource last-modified-date, since the resource
may be a secondary representation of the evidence variable. Additional specific dates
may be added as extensions or be found by consulting Provenances associated with past
versions of the resource.
Usually an organization but may be an individual. The publisher (or steward) of the evidence
variable is the organization or individual primarily responsible for the maintenance and
upkeep of the evidence variable. This is not necessarily the same individual or organization
that developed and initially authored the content. The publisher is the primary point
of contact for questions or issues with the evidence variable. This item SHOULD be populated
unless the information is available from context.
Helps establish the "authority/credibility" of the evidence variable. May also
allow for contact.
This description can be used to capture details such as why the evidence variable was
built, comments about misuse, instructions for clinical use and interpretation, literature
references, examples from the paper world, etc. It is not a rendering of the evidence
variable as conveyed in the 'text' field of the resource itself. This item SHOULD be populated
unless the information is available from context (e.g. the language of the evidence variable
is presumed to be the predominant language in the place the evidence variable was created).
The content was developed with a focus and intent of supporting the contexts that are
listed. These contexts may be general categories (gender, age, ...) or may be references
to specific programs (insurance plans, studies, ...) and may be used to assist with indexing
and searching for appropriate evidence variable instances.
When multiple useContexts are specified, there is no expectation that all or any of the
contexts apply.
It may be possible for the evidence variable to be used in jurisdictions other than those
for which it was originally designed or intended.
A copyright statement relating to the evidence variable and/or its contents. Copyright
statements are generally legal restrictions on the use and publishing of the evidence
variable.
Consumers must be able to determine any legal restrictions on the use of the evidence
variable and/or its content.
The date on which the resource content was approved by the publisher. Approval happens
once when the content is officially approved for usage.
The 'date' element may be more recent than the approval date because of minor changes
or editorial corrections.
The date on which the resource content was last reviewed. Review happens periodically
after approval but does not change the original approval date.
Gives a sense of how "current" the content is. Resources that have not been
reviewed in a long time may have a risk of being less appropriate/relevant.
The period during which the evidence variable content was or is planned to be in active
use.
The effective period for a evidence variable determines when the content is applicable
for usage and is independent of publication and review dates. For example, a measure intended
to be used for the year 2016 might be published in 2015.
Allows establishing a transition before a resource comes into effect and also allows for
a sunsetting process when new versions of the evidence variable are or are expected to
be used instead.
Descriptive topics related to the content of the EvidenceVariable. Topics provide a high-level
categorization grouping types of EvidenceVariables that can be useful for filtering and
searching.
Repositories must be able to determine how to categorize the EvidenceVariable so that
it can be found by topical searches.
An individiual or organization primarily involved in the creation and maintenance of the
content.
An individual or organization responsible for officially endorsing the content for use
in some setting.
Each related artifact is either an attachment, or a reference to another resource, but
not both.
EvidenceVariables must be able to provide enough information for consumers of the content
(and/or interventions or results produced by the content) to be able to determine and
understand the justification for and evidence in support of the content.
The possible types of variables for exposures or outcomes (E.g. Dichotomous, Continuous,
Descriptive).
A characteristic that defines the members of the evidence element. Multiple characteristics
are applied with "and" semantics.
Characteristics can be defined flexibly to accommodate different use cases for membership
criteria, ranging from simple codes, all the way to using an expression language to express
the criteria.
Unique id for the element within a resource (for internal references). This may be any
string value that does not contain spaces.
<!-- Note: special primitive values have a FHIRPath system type. e.g. this is compiler magic
(j) -->
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.
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.
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).
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.
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](extensibility.ht
ml#modifierExtension).
Modifier extensions are expected to modify the meaning or interpretation of the element
that contains them
A short, natural language description of the characteristic that could be used to communicate
the criteria to an end-user.
Need to be able to describe characteristics in natural language so that end users can
understand the criteria.
Define members of the evidence element using Codes (such as condition, medication, or
observation), Expressions ( using an expression language such as FHIRPath or CQL) or DataRequirement
s (such as Diabetes diagnosis onset in the last year).
Need to be able to define members in simple codes when the membership aligns well with
terminology, with common criteria such as observations in a value set or lab tests within
a year, or with expression language to support criteria that do not fit in the above.
Use UsageContext to define the members of the population, such as Age Ranges, Genders,
Settings.
Need to be able to define members more structurally when more information can be communicated
such as age range.
The EvidenceVariable resource describes a "PICO" element that knowledge (evidence,
assertion, recommendation) is about.
PICO stands for Population (the population within which exposures are being compared),
Intervention (the conditional state or exposure state being described for its effect on
outcomes), Comparison (the alternative conditional state or alternative exposure state
being compared against), and Outcome (the result or effect of the intervention in the
population).
Name should be usable as an identifier for the module by machine processing applications
such as code generation
An absolute URI that is used to identify this evidence variable when it is referenced
in a specification, model, design or an instance; also called its canonical identifier.
This SHOULD be globally unique and SHOULD be a literal address at which at which an authoritative
instance of this evidence variable is (or will be) published. This URL can be the target
of a canonical reference. It SHALL remain the same when the evidence variable is stored
on different servers.
Can be a urn:uuid: or a urn:oid: but real http: addresses are preferred. Multiple instances
may share the same URL if they have a distinct version.
The determination of when to create a new version of a resource (same url, new version)
vs. defining a new artifact is up to the author. Considerations for making this decision
are found in [Technical and Business Versions](resource.html#versions).
In some cases, the resource can no longer be found at the stated url, but the url itself
cannot change. Implementations can use the [meta.source](resource.html#meta) element to
indicate where the current master source of the resource can be found.
A formal identifier that is used to identify this evidence variable when it is represented
in other formats, or referenced in a specification, model, design or an instance.
Typically, this is used for identifiers that can go in an HL7 V3 II (instance identifier)
data type, and can then identify this evidence variable outside of FHIR, where it is not
possible to use the logical URI.
Allows externally provided and/or usable business identifiers to be easily associated
with the module.
The identifier that is used to identify this version of the evidence variable when it
is referenced in a specification, model, design or instance. This is an arbitrary value
managed by the evidence variable author and is not expected to be globally unique. For
example, it might be a timestamp (e.g. yyyymmdd) if a managed version is not available.
There is also no expectation that versions can be placed in a lexicographical sequence.
To provide a version consistent with the Decision Support Service specification, use the
format Major.Minor.Revision (e.g. 1.0.0). For more information on versioning knowledge
assets, refer to the Decision Support Service specification. Note that a version is required
for non-experimental active artifacts.
There may be different evidence variable instances that have the same identifier but different
versions. The version can be appended to the url in a reference to allow a reference
to a particular business version of the evidence variable with the format [url]|[version].
A natural language name identifying the evidence variable. This name should be usable
as an identifier for the module by machine processing applications such as code generation.
The name is not expected to be globally unique. The name should be a simple alphanumeric
type name to ensure that it is machine-processing friendly.
This name does not need to be machine-processing friendly and may contain punctuation,
white-space, etc.
The short title provides an alternate title for use in informal descriptive contexts where
the full, formal title is not necessary.
Need to be able to reference the content by a short description, but still provide a longer,
more formal title for the content.
An explanatory or alternate title for the EvidenceVariable giving additional information
about its content.
This is labeled as "Is Modifier" because applications should not use a retired
{{title}} without due consideration
The date (and optionally time) when the evidence variable was published. The date must
change when the business version changes and it must change if the status code changes.
In addition, it should change when the substantive content of the evidence variable changes.
Note that this is not the same as the resource last-modified-date, since the resource
may be a secondary representation of the evidence variable. Additional specific dates
may be added as extensions or be found by consulting Provenances associated with past
versions of the resource.
Usually an organization but may be an individual. The publisher (or steward) of the evidence
variable is the organization or individual primarily responsible for the maintenance and
upkeep of the evidence variable. This is not necessarily the same individual or organization
that developed and initially authored the content. The publisher is the primary point
of contact for questions or issues with the evidence variable. This item SHOULD be populated
unless the information is available from context.
Helps establish the "authority/credibility" of the evidence variable. May also
allow for contact.
This description can be used to capture details such as why the evidence variable was
built, comments about misuse, instructions for clinical use and interpretation, literature
references, examples from the paper world, etc. It is not a rendering of the evidence
variable as conveyed in the 'text' field of the resource itself. This item SHOULD be populated
unless the information is available from context (e.g. the language of the evidence variable
is presumed to be the predominant language in the place the evidence variable was created).
The content was developed with a focus and intent of supporting the contexts that are
listed. These contexts may be general categories (gender, age, ...) or may be references
to specific programs (insurance plans, studies, ...) and may be used to assist with indexing
and searching for appropriate evidence variable instances.
When multiple useContexts are specified, there is no expectation that all or any of the
contexts apply.
It may be possible for the evidence variable to be used in jurisdictions other than those
for which it was originally designed or intended.
A copyright statement relating to the evidence variable and/or its contents. Copyright
statements are generally legal restrictions on the use and publishing of the evidence
variable.
Consumers must be able to determine any legal restrictions on the use of the evidence
variable and/or its content.
The date on which the resource content was approved by the publisher. Approval happens
once when the content is officially approved for usage.
The 'date' element may be more recent than the approval date because of minor changes
or editorial corrections.
The date on which the resource content was last reviewed. Review happens periodically
after approval but does not change the original approval date.
Gives a sense of how "current" the content is. Resources that have not been
reviewed in a long time may have a risk of being less appropriate/relevant.
The period during which the evidence variable content was or is planned to be in active
use.
The effective period for a evidence variable determines when the content is applicable
for usage and is independent of publication and review dates. For example, a measure intended
to be used for the year 2016 might be published in 2015.
Allows establishing a transition before a resource comes into effect and also allows for
a sunsetting process when new versions of the evidence variable are or are expected to
be used instead.
Descriptive topics related to the content of the EvidenceVariable. Topics provide a high-level
categorization grouping types of EvidenceVariables that can be useful for filtering and
searching.
Repositories must be able to determine how to categorize the EvidenceVariable so that
it can be found by topical searches.
An individiual or organization primarily involved in the creation and maintenance of the
content.
An individual or organization responsible for officially endorsing the content for use
in some setting.
Each related artifact is either an attachment, or a reference to another resource, but
not both.
EvidenceVariables must be able to provide enough information for consumers of the content
(and/or interventions or results produced by the content) to be able to determine and
understand the justification for and evidence in support of the content.
The possible types of variables for exposures or outcomes (E.g. Dichotomous, Continuous,
Descriptive).
A characteristic that defines the members of the evidence element. Multiple characteristics
are applied with "and" semantics.
