Logical Definition (CLD)

  • Include these codes as defined in http://terminology.hl7.org/CodeSystem/v3-ActCode
    CodeDisplayDefinition
    ACIDAcidificationThe lowering of specimen pH through the addition of an acid
    ALKAlkalizationThe act rendering alkaline by impregnating with an alkali; a conferring of alkaline qualities.
    Ccorrected**Description:**Indicates that result data has been corrected.
    DEFBDefibrinationThe removal of fibrin from whole blood or plasma through physical or chemical means
    Ffinal**Description:**Indicates that a result is complete. No further results are to come. This maps to the 'complete' state in the observation result status code.
    FILTFiltrationThe passage of a liquid through a filter, accomplished by gravity, pressure or vacuum (suction).
    LDLPLDL Precipitation
    NEUTNeutralizationThe act or process by which an acid and a base are combined in such proportions that the resulting compound is neutral.
    PRLMNpreliminary**Description:**Indicates that a result is incomplete. There are further results to come. This maps to the 'active' state in the observation result status code.
    RECARecalcificationThe addition of calcium back to a specimen after it was removed by chelating agents
    SRECspecimen received**Description:**Specimen has been received by the participating organization/department.
    SSTORspecimen in storage**Description:**Specimen has been placed into storage at a participating location.
    STRANspecimen in transit**Description:**Specimen has been put in transit to a participating receiver.
    UFILUltrafiltrationThe filtration of a colloidal substance through a semipermeable medium that allows only the passage of small molecules.

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
System 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
