This case-sensitive code system http://hl7.org/fhir/trigger-type defines the following codes: codes in an undefined hierarchy:

Lvl Code Display Definition Copy
1 named-event Named Event The trigger occurs in response to a specific named event, and no other information about the trigger is specified. Named events are completely pre-coordinated, and the formal semantics of the trigger are not provided. btn   btn
1 periodic Periodic The trigger occurs at a specific time or periodically as described by a timing or schedule. A periodic event cannot have any data elements, but may have a name assigned as a shorthand for the event. btn   btn
1 data-changed Data Changed The trigger occurs whenever data of a particular type is changed in any way, either added, modified, or removed. btn   btn
2   data-added Data Added The trigger occurs whenever data of a particular type is added. btn   btn
2   data-modified Data Updated The trigger occurs whenever data of a particular type is modified. btn   btn
2   data-removed Data Removed The trigger occurs whenever data of a particular type is removed. btn   btn
1 data-accessed Data Accessed The trigger occurs whenever data of a particular type is accessed. btn   btn
1 data-access-ended Data Access Ended The trigger occurs whenever access to data of a particular type is completed. btn   btn
1 subscription-topic Subscription Topic The trigger occurs as defined by a subscription topic. btn   btn

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. See Code System for further information.
Source 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). If the code is in italics, this indicates that the code is not selectable ('Abstract')
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
