FHIR Guidelines Geboortezorg

Pattern legend

For several FHIR resource types we follow generic patterns in Birthcare. A pattern contains:

an XML and/or JSON fragment
- all non-bracketed code is fixed
- parts in [[square brackets]] are variable and contain instructions on how to populate those
- a pipeline | separates text from example value
- [[!comments]] are bracketed with exclamation mark
- bracketed blocks start with [[# text]] and end with [[/ text]], text will contain information on how to populate the block in instances
- for instance: Observation.value[x], if 'x' can vary, information about the content is provided
- (square brackets do not clash too much with either XML or JSON syntax, other than that we follow Mustache syntax very loosely)
- (fragments are not intended to be machine-processable, but are for documentation, do not rely on fragments syntax to be faultless)
- (not are recipes intended to replace StructureDefinitions, just to provide more readable documentation for implementers)
a valuation table
- with a dataset concept id
- fixed values for the valuation of bracketed elements of the fragment (i.e. those are fixed for that particular concept)
- bracketed values for per-instance variable data (i.e. those are not fixed for that particular concept, usually the actual values that are exchanged)
