See Also:
  • Field Details

    • path

      protected StringType path
      The path identifies the element and is expressed as a "."-separated list of ancestor elements, beginning with the name of the resource or extension.
    • representation

      Codes that define how this element is represented in instances, when the deviation varies from the normal case.
    • sliceName

      protected StringType sliceName
      The name of this element definition slice, when slicing is working. The name must be a token with no dots or spaces. This is a unique name referring to a specific set of constraints applied to this element, used to provide a name to different slices of the same element.
    • label

      protected StringType label
      A single preferred label which is the text to display beside the element indicating its meaning or to use to prompt for the element in a user display or form.
    • code

      protected List<Coding> code
      A code that has the same meaning as the element in a particular terminology.
    • slicing

      Indicates that the element is sliced into a set of alternative definitions (i.e. in a structure definition, there are multiple different constraints on a single element in the base resource). Slicing can be used in any resource that has cardinality ..* on the base resource, or any resource with a choice of types. The set of slices is any elements that come after this in the element sequence that have the same path, until a shorter path occurs (the shorter path terminates the set).
    • short_

      protected StringType short_
      A concise description of what this element means (e.g. for use in autogenerated summaries).
    • definition

      Provides a complete explanation of the meaning of the data element for human readability. For the case of elements derived from existing elements (e.g. constraints), the definition SHALL be consistent with the base definition, but convey the meaning of the element in the particular context of use of the resource.
    • comment

      protected MarkdownType comment
      Explanatory notes and implementation guidance about the data element, including notes about how to use the data properly, exceptions to proper use, etc.
    • requirements

      This element is for traceability of why the element was created and why the constraints exist as they do. This may be used to point to source materials or specifications that drove the structure of this element.
    • alias

      protected List<StringType> alias
      Identifies additional names by which this element might also be known.
    • min

      protected UnsignedIntType min
      The minimum number of times this element SHALL appear in the instance.
    • max

      protected StringType max
      The maximum number of times this element is permitted to appear in the instance.
    • base

      Information about the base definition of the element, provided to make it unnecessary for tools to trace the deviation of the element through the derived and related profiles. This information is provided when the element definition is not the original definition of an element - i.g. either in a constraint on another type, or for elements from a super type in a snap shot.
    • contentReference

      Identifies the identity of an element defined elsewhere in the profile whose content rules should be applied to the current element.
    • type

      The data type or resource that the value of this element is permitted to be.
    • defaultValue

      protected Type defaultValue
      The value that should be used if there is no value stated in the instance (e.g. 'if not otherwise specified, the abstract is false').
    • meaningWhenMissing

      The Implicit meaning that is to be understood when this element is missing (e.g. 'when this element is missing, the period is ongoing'.
    • orderMeaning

      If present, indicates that the order of the repeating element has meaning and describes what that meaning is. If absent, it means that the order of the element has no meaning.
    • fixed

      protected Type fixed
      Specifies a value that SHALL be exactly the value for this element in the instance. For purposes of comparison, non-significant whitespace is ignored, and all values must be an exact match (case and accent sensitive). Missing elements/attributes must also be missing.
    • pattern

      protected Type pattern
      Specifies a value that the value in the instance SHALL follow - that is, any value in the pattern must be found in the instance. Other additional values may be found too. This is effectively constraint by example. The values of elements present in the pattern must match exactly (case-sensitive, accent-sensitive, etc.).
    • example

      A sample value for this element demonstrating the type of information that would typically be found in the element.
    • minValue

      protected Type minValue
      The minimum allowed value for the element. The value is inclusive. This is allowed for the types date, dateTime, instant, time, decimal, integer, and Quantity.
    • maxValue

      protected Type maxValue
      The maximum allowed value for the element. The value is inclusive. This is allowed for the types date, dateTime, instant, time, decimal, integer, and Quantity.
    • maxLength

      Indicates the maximum length in characters that is permitted to be present in conformant instances and which is expected to be supported by conformant consumers that support the element.
    • condition

      protected List<IdType> condition
      A reference to an invariant that may make additional statements about the cardinality or value in the instance.
    • constraint

      Formal constraints such as co-occurrence and other constraints that can be computationally evaluated within the context of the instance.
    • mustSupport

      If true, implementations that produce or consume resources SHALL provide "support" for the element in some meaningful way. If false, the element may be ignored and not supported.
    • isModifier

      If true, the value of this element affects the interpretation of the element or resource that contains it, and the value of the element cannot be ignored. Typically, this is used for status, negation and qualification codes. The effect of this is that the element cannot be ignored by systems: they SHALL either recognize the element and process it, and/or a pre-determination has been made that it is not relevant to their particular system.
    • isSummary

      Whether the element should be included if a client requests a search with the parameter _summary=true.
    • binding

      Binds to a value set if this element is coded (code, Coding, CodeableConcept, Quantity), or the data types (string, uri).
    • mapping

      Identifies a concept from an external specification that roughly corresponds to this element.
