SpecimenProcessing

A sample to be used for analysis.

type SpecimenProcessing implements Element {
  description: String
  procedure: CodeableConcept
  additive: [Reference]
  timeDateTime: Date
  timePeriod: Period
  modifierExtension: [Extension]
  extension: [Extension]
  id: String
}

Fields​

SpecimenProcessing.description ● String scalar​

Textual description of procedure.

SpecimenProcessing.procedure ● CodeableConcept object​

A coded value specifying the procedure used to process the specimen.

SpecimenProcessing.additive ● [Reference] list object​

Material used in the processing step.

SpecimenProcessing.timeDateTime ● Date scalar​

A record of the time or period when the specimen processing occurred. For example the time of sample fixation or the period of time the sample was in formalin. (choose any one of time*, but only one)

SpecimenProcessing.timePeriod ● Period object​

A record of the time or period when the specimen processing occurred. For example the time of sample fixation or the period of time the sample was in formalin. (choose any one of time*, but only one)

SpecimenProcessing.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).

SpecimenProcessing.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.

SpecimenProcessing.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
