This page is part of the HL7 Terminology (v2.1.0: Release) based on FHIR R4. The current version which supercedes this version is 5.2.0. For a full list of available versions, see the Directory of published versions

ValueSet: ObservationInterpretationDetected

Summary

Defining URL:

http://terminology.hl7.org/ValueSet/v3-ObservationInterpretationDetected

Version:

2.0.0

Name:

ObservationInterpretationDetected

Status:

Active as of 2014-03-26

Definition:

Interpretations of the presence or absence of a component / analyte or organism in a test or of a sign in a clinical observation. In keeping with laboratory data processing practice, these concepts provide a categorical interpretation of the "meaning" of the quantitative value for the same observation.

Lvl	Code	Display	Definition
0	ObservationInterpretationDetection	ObservationInterpretationDetection	Interpretations of the presence or absence of a component / analyte or organism in a test or of a sign in a clinical observation. In keeping with laboratory data processing practice, these concepts provide a categorical interpretation of the "meaning" of the quantitative value for the same observation.
1	IND	Indeterminate	The specified component / analyte, organism or clinical sign could neither be declared positive / negative nor detected / not detected by the performed test or procedure. Usage Note: For example, if the specimen was degraded, poorly processed, or was missing the required anatomic structures, then "indeterminate" (i.e. "cannot be determined") is the appropriate response, not "equivocal".
2	E	Equivocal	The test or procedure was successfully performed, but the results are borderline and can neither be declared positive / negative nor detected / not detected according to the current established criteria.
1	NEG	Negative	An absence finding of the specified component / analyte, organism or clinical sign based on the established threshold of the performed test or procedure. \[Note: Negative does not necessarily imply the complete absence of the specified item.\]
2	ND	Not detected	The presence of the specified component / analyte, organism or clinical sign could not be determined within the limit of detection of the performed test or procedure.
1	POS	Positive	A presence finding of the specified component / analyte, organism or clinical sign based on the established threshold of the performed test or procedure.
2	DET	Detected	The measurement of the specified component / analyte, organism or clinical sign above the limit of detection of the performed test or procedure.

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
