Fields

SpecimenDefinitionContainer.material ● CodeableConcept object

The type of material of the container.

SpecimenDefinitionContainer.type ● CodeableConcept object

The type of container used to contain this kind of specimen.

SpecimenDefinitionContainer.cap ● CodeableConcept object

Color of container cap.

SpecimenDefinitionContainer.description ● String scalar

The textual description of the kind of container.

SpecimenDefinitionContainer.capacity ● Quantity object

The capacity (volume or other measure) of this kind of container.

SpecimenDefinitionContainer.minimumVolumeQuantity ● Quantity object

The minimum volume to be conditioned in the container. (choose any one of minimumVolume*, but only one)

SpecimenDefinitionContainer.minimumVolumeString ● String scalar

The minimum volume to be conditioned in the container. (choose any one of minimumVolume*, but only one)

SpecimenDefinitionContainer.additive ● [SpecimenDefinitionAdditive] list object

Substance introduced in the kind of container to preserve, maintain or enhance the specimen. Examples: Formalin, Citrate, EDTA.

SpecimenDefinitionContainer.preparation ● String scalar

Special processing that should be applied to the container for this kind of specimen.

SpecimenDefinitionContainer.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).

SpecimenDefinitionContainer.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.

SpecimenDefinitionContainer.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
