Resource Profile: HCIM General Measurement

General Measurement as defined by the Dutch Health and Care Information models (Dutch: Zorginformatiebouwsteen or ZIB) GeneralMeasurement version 3.0, release 2017.

A general measurement determines the result of a measurement or determination made for a patient. The information model is used to record the measurement results for which no specific information models have yet been formulated. The information model is not intended for laboratory determinations to be carried out on the material taken from the patient.

The measurement and documentation of physiological observations are an important tool for evaluating a patient’s condition. This information model offers the option to record various relevant measurement values.

Usages:

• Derived from this Profile: gp-DiagnosticResult
• Refer to this Profile: nl-core-careplan and HCIM General Measurement

You can also check for usages in the FHIR IG Statistics
