Properties This code system defines the following properties for its concepts Name Code Type Description abstract abstract boolean True if an element is considered 'abstract' - in otherwords, the code is not for use as a real concept Concepts This case-sensitive code system http://terminology.hl7.org/CodeSystem/referencerange-meaning defines the following codes in a Is-A hierarchy: Lvl Code Display Definition abstract 1 type Type General types of reference range. true 2 normal Normal Range Values expected for a normal member of the relevant control population being measured. Typically each results producer such as a laboratory has specific normal ranges and they are usually defined as within two standard deviations from the mean and account for 95.45% of this population. 2 recommended Recommended Range The range that is recommended by a relevant professional body. 2 treatment Treatment Range The range at which treatment would/should be considered. 2 therapeutic Therapeutic Desired Level The optimal range for best therapeutic outcomes. 3 pre Pre Therapeutic Desired Level The optimal range for best therapeutic outcomes for a specimen taken immediately before administration. 3 post Post Therapeutic Desired Level The optimal range for best therapeutic outcomes for a specimen taken immediately after administration. 1 endocrine Endocrine Endocrine related states that change the expected value. true 2 pre-puberty Pre-Puberty An expected range in an individual prior to puberty. 2 follicular Follicular Stage An expected range in an individual during the follicular stage of the cycle. 2 midcycle MidCycle An expected range in an individual during the midcycle stage of the cycle. 2 luteal Luteal An expected range in an individual during the luteal stage of the cycle. 2 postmenopausal Post-Menopause An expected range in an individual post-menopause.
Observation Reference Range Meaning Codes
This value set defines a set of codes that can be used to indicate the meaning/use of a reference range for a particular target population.

True if an element is considered 'abstract' - in otherwords, the code is not for use as a real concept
Values expected for a normal member of the relevant control population being measured. Typically each results producer such as a laboratory has specific normal ranges and they are usually defined as within two standard deviations from the mean and account for 95.45% of this population.
The range that is recommended by a relevant professional body.
The range at which treatment would/should be considered.
The optimal range for best therapeutic outcomes.
The optimal range for best therapeutic outcomes for a specimen taken immediately before administration.
The optimal range for best therapeutic outcomes for a specimen taken immediately after administration.
Endocrine related states that change the expected value.
An expected range in an individual prior to puberty.
An expected range in an individual during the follicular stage of the cycle.
An expected range in an individual during the midcycle stage of the cycle.
An expected range in an individual during the luteal stage of the cycle.
An expected range in an individual post-menopause.
