Laboratory test resultLaboratory test result: The result, including findings and the laboratory's interpretation, of an investigation performed on specimens collected from an individual or related to that individual.
Data
Any eventAny event: Default, unspecified point in time or interval event which may be explicitly defined in a template or at run-time.
Data
Test nameTest name: Name of the laboratory investigation performed on the specimen(s).
A test result may be for a single analyte, or a group of items, including panel tests. It is strongly recommended that 'Test name' be coded with a terminology, for example LOINC or SNOMED CT. For example: 'Glucose', 'Urea and Electrolytes', 'Swab', 'Cortisol (am)', 'Potassium in perspiration' or 'Melanoma histopathology'. The name may sometimes include specimen type and patient state, for example 'Fasting blood glucose' or include other information, as 'Potassium (PNA blood gas)'.
Overall test statusOverall test status: The status of the laboratory test result as a whole.
The values have been specifically chosen to match those in the HL7 FHIR Diagnostic report, historically derived from HL7v2 practice. Other local codes/terms can be used via the Text 'choice'. This element is multiple occurrence to cater for the use cases where statuses for different aspects of the result have been split into several elements.
