AU Observation Age Profile [FMM Level 1]

This profile defines the chronological age or age range of a patient.

Note: Known issues with observation constraints should be considered when using this profile FHIR R4 has corrections that may be useful1

Examples

4 years

6 months and over

6 months to 5 years

12 to 18 months

12 months
