ARTBLDActSpecObsArtBldCodeDescribes the artificial blood identifier that is associated with the specimen.
DILUTIONActSpecObsDilutionCodeAn observation that reports the dilution of a sample.
AUTO-HIGHAuto-High DilutionThe dilution of a sample performed by automated equipment. The value is specified by the equipment
AUTO-LOWAuto-Low DilutionThe dilution of a sample performed by automated equipment. The value is specified by the equipment
PREPre-DilutionThe dilution of the specimen made prior to being loaded onto analytical equipment
RERUNRerun DilutionThe value of the dilution of a sample after it had been analyzed at a prior dilution value
EVNFCTSActSpecObsEvntfctsCodeDomain provides codes that qualify the ActLabObsEnvfctsCode domain. (Environmental Factors)
INTFRActSpecObsInterferenceCodeAn observation that relates to factors that may potentially cause interference with the observation
FIBRINFibrinThe Fibrin Index of the specimen. In the case of only differentiating between Absent and Present, recommend using 0 and 1
HEMOLYSISHemolysisAn observation of the hemolysis index of the specimen in g/L
ICTERUSIcterusAn observation that describes the icterus index of the specimen. It is recommended to use mMol/L of bilirubin
LIPEMIALipemiaAn observation used to describe the Lipemia Index of the specimen. It is recommended to use the optical turbidity at 600 nm (in absorbance units).
VOLUMEActSpecObsVolumeCodeAn observation that reports the volume of a sample.
AVAILABLEAvailable VolumeThe available quantity of specimen. This is the current quantity minus any planned consumption (e.g., tests that are planned)
CONSUMPTIONConsumption VolumeThe quantity of specimen that is used each time the equipment uses this substance
CURRENTCurrent VolumeThe current quantity of the specimen, i.e., initial quantity minus what has been actually used.
INITIALInitial VolumeThe initial quantity of the specimen in inventory

Explanation of the columns that may appear on this page:

Level A few code lists that FHIR defines are hierarchical - each code is assigned a level. In this scheme, some codes are under other codes, and imply that the code they are under also applies
Source The source of the definition of the code (when the value set draws in codes defined elsewhere)
Code The code (used as the code in the resource instance)
Display The display (used in the display element of a Coding). If there is no display, implementers should not simply display the code, but map the concept into their application
Definition An explanation of the meaning of the concept
Comments Additional notes about how to use the code
