Union of http://terminology.hl7.org/CodeSystem/v3-ObservationCategory and http://terminology.hl7.org/CodeSystem/v3-ObservationCategory

This is the CodeSystem that contains all the codes in ObservationCategory (http://terminology.hl7.org/CodeSystem/v3-ObservationCategory) and ObservationCategory (http://terminology.hl7.org/CodeSystem/v3-ObservationCategory). E.g. what you have to deal with if you get resources containing codes in either of them

Properties

This code system defines the following properties for its concepts

NameCodeURITypeDescription
SpecializesSpecializesCodingThe child code is a more narrow version of the concept represented by the parent code. I.e. Every child concept is also a valid parent concept. Used to allow determination of subsumption. Must be transitive, irreflexive, antisymmetric.
GeneralizesGeneralizesCodingInverse of Specializes. Only included as a derived relationship.
internalIdinternalIdhttp://terminology.hl7.org/CodeSystem/utg-concept-properties#v3-internal-idcodeThe internal identifier for the concept in the HL7 Access database repository.
Statusstatushttp://hl7.org/fhir/concept-properties#statuscodeDesignation of a concept's state. Normally is not populated unless the state is retired.

exam ExamObservations generated by physical exam findings including direct observations made by a clinician and use of simple instruments and the result of simple maneuvers performed directly on the patient's body.23740, 23740active, active23740, 23740active, active
imaging ImagingObservations generated by imaging. The scope includes observations, plain x-ray, ultrasound, CT, MRI, angiography, echocardiography, nuclear medicine.23736, 23736active, active23736, 23736active, active
laboratory LaboratoryThe results of observations generated by laboratories. Laboratory results are typically generated by laboratories providing analytic services in areas such as chemistry, hematology, serology, histology, cytology, anatomic pathology, microbiology, and/or virology. These observations are based on analysis of specimens obtained from the patient and submitted to the laboratory.23737, 23737active, active23737, 23737active, active
procedure ProcedureObservations generated by other procedures. This category includes observations resulting from interventional and non-interventional procedures excluding lab and imaging (e.g. cardiology catheterization, endoscopy, electrodiagnostics, etc.). Procedure results are typically generated by a clinician to provide more granular information about component observations made during a procedure, such as where a gastroenterologist reports the size of a polyp observed during a colonoscopy.23738, 23738active, active23738, 23738active, active
social-history Social HistoryThe Social History Observations define the patient's occupational, personal (e.g. lifestyle), social, and environmental history and health risk factors, as well as administrative data such as marital status, race, ethnicity and religious affiliation.23734, 23734active, active23734, 23734active, active
