ElementDefinitionBinding

Captures constraints on each element within the resource, profile, or extension. If the element is present, it must have a value for at least one of the defined elements, an @id referenced from the Narrative, or extensions

type ElementDefinitionBinding implements Element {
strength: String
description: String
valueSet: Uri
modifierExtension: [Extension]
extension: [Extension]
id: String
}

Fields

ElementDefinitionBinding.strength ● String scalar

Indicates the degree of conformance expectations associated with this binding - that is, the degree to which the provided value set must be adhered to in the instances.

ElementDefinitionBinding.description ● String scalar

Describes the intended use of this particular set of codes.

ElementDefinitionBinding.valueSet ● Uri scalar

Refers to the value set that identifies the set of codes the binding refers to.

ElementDefinitionBinding.modifierExtension ● [Extension] list object

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).

ElementDefinitionBinding.extension ● [Extension] list object

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.

ElementDefinitionBinding.id ● String scalar
