SpecimenDefinitionHandling

A kind of specimen with associated set of requirements.

type SpecimenDefinitionHandling implements Element {
temperatureQualifier: CodeableConcept
temperatureRange: Range
maxDuration: Duration
instruction: String
modifierExtension: [Extension]
extension: [Extension]
id: String
}

Fields

SpecimenDefinitionHandling.temperatureQualifier ● CodeableConcept object

It qualifies the interval of temperature, which characterizes an occurrence of handling. Conditions that are not related to temperature may be handled in the instruction element.

SpecimenDefinitionHandling.temperatureRange ● Range object

The temperature interval for this set of handling instructions.

SpecimenDefinitionHandling.maxDuration ● Duration object

The maximum time interval of preservation of the specimen with these conditions.

SpecimenDefinitionHandling.instruction ● String scalar

Additional textual instructions for the preservation or transport of the specimen. For instance, Protect from light exposure .

SpecimenDefinitionHandling.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).

SpecimenDefinitionHandling.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.

SpecimenDefinitionHandling.id ● String scalar

Interfaces

Element interface

Base definition for all elements in a resource. 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
