This profile sets minimum expectations for an Observation resource to record, search, and fetch body temperature observations with standard coding and units of measure. It is based on the FHIR Body Temperature Profile and identifies the additional mandatory core elements, extensions, vocabularies and value sets that SHALL be present in the Observation resource when conforming to this profile. It provides the floor for standards development for specific uses cases in an Australian context.
The following are supported usage scenarios for this profile:
A resource conforming to this profile is conformant to:
Conformance in reverse is not guaranteed, i.e. a resource conforming to International Patient Access, International Patient Summary, or US Core MAY NOT conform to AU Core.
Observation.category
provides an efficient way of supporting system interactions, e.g. restricting searches. Implementers need to understand that data categorisation is somewhat subjective. The categorisation applied by the source may not align with a receiver’s expectations.Feedback is requested on the proposal to remove Must Support from Observation.performer element across AU Core Vital Signs profiles. Please comment on HL7 Jira FHIR-44786.
Feedback is requested on the proposal to remove the binding to metric units and allow for metric or imperial measurements. Please comment on HL7 Jira FHIR-44787.

Below is an overview of the mandatory and optional search parameters and combined search parameters. FHIR search operations and the syntax used to describe the interactions is described here.
Any search parameter defined in FHIR may be ‘allowed’ by the system unless explicitly marked as “SHALL NOT”. A few items are marked as MAY in this implementation guide to highlight their potential relevance.
Parameter(s) | Conformance | Type(s) | Requirements (when used alone or in combination) |
---|---|---|---|
patient | SHALL | reference |
The client SHALL provide at least an id value and MAY provide both the Type and id values. The server SHALL support both. |
patient+category | SHALL | reference +token |
|
patient+category+date | SHALL | reference +token +date |
|
patient+code | SHALL | reference +token |
|
patient+category+status | SHOULD | reference +token +token |
|
patient+code+date | SHOULD | reference +token +date |
|
patient.identifier | SHOULD | reference .token |
The client SHALL provide both the system and code values. The server SHALL support both. The client SHOULD support search using IHI, Medicare Number, and DVA Number identifiers as defined in the AU Core Patient profile. The server SHOULD support search using the using IHI, Medicare Number, and DVA Number identifiers as defined in the AU Core Patient profile. |
category | MAY | token |
The client SHALL provide at least a code value and MAY provide both the system and code values. The server SHALL support both. The client SHALL support search using the 'vital-signs' category defined in each profile. The server SHALL support search using the 'vital-signs' category defined in each profile. |
code | MAY | token |
The client SHALL provide at least a code value and MAY provide both the system and code values. The server SHALL support both. The client SHALL support search using the LOINC codes defined in each profile. The server SHALL support search using the LOINC codes defined in each profile. |
date | MAY | date |
A client SHALL provide a value precise to the second + time offset. A server SHALL support a value precise to the second + time offset. |
status | MAY | token |
The client SHALL provide at least a code value and MAY provide both the system and code values. The server SHALL support both. |
The following search parameters and search parameter combinations SHALL be supported:
patient
search parameter:
_revinclude
parameters: Provenance:target
patient.identifier
(e.g. patient.identifier=[system|][code]
)GET [base]/Observation?patient={Type/}[id]
or optionally GET [base]/Observation?patient.identifier=[system|][code]
Example:
Implementation Notes: Fetches a bundle of all Observation resources for the specified patient (how to search by reference and how to search by token)
patient
and category
search parameters:
patient.identifier
(e.g. patient.identifier=[system|][code]
)GET [base]/Observation?patient={Type/}[id]&category=vital-signs
Example:
Implementation Notes: Fetches a bundle of all Observation resources for the specified patient and category (how to search by reference and how to search by token)
patient
and category
and date
search parameters:
patient.identifier
(e.g. patient.identifier=[system|][code]
)date
comparators: gt,lt,ge,le
date
(e.g.date=[date]&date=[date]]&...
)GET [base]/Observation?patient={Type/}[id]&category=vital-signs&date={gt|lt|ge|le}[date]{&date={gt|lt|ge|le}[date]&...}
Example:
Implementation Notes: Fetches a bundle of all Observation resources for the specified patient and date and a category code = vital-signs
(how to search by reference and how to search by token and how to search by date)
patient
and code
search parameters:
patient.identifier
(e.g. patient.identifier=[system|][code]
)code
(e.g.code={system|}[code],{system|}[code],...
)GET [base]/Observation?patient={Type/}[id]&code={system|}[code]{,{system|}[code],...}
Example:
Implementation Notes: Fetches a bundle of all Observation resources for the specified patient and observation code(s). The Observation code
parameter searches Observation.code
only. (how to search by reference and how to search by token)
The following search parameters and search parameter combinations SHOULD be supported:
patient
and category
and status
search parameters:
patient.identifier
(e.g. patient.identifier=[system|][code]
)status
(e.g.status={system|}[code],{system|}[code],...
)GET [base]/Observation?patient={Type/}[id]&category=vital-signs&status={system|}[code]{,{system|}[code],...}
Example:
Implementation Notes: Fetches a bundle of all Observation resources for the specified patient and category and status (how to search by reference and how to search by token)
patient
and code
and date
search parameters:
patient.identifier
(e.g. patient.identifier=[system|][code]
code
(e.g.code={system|}[code],{system|}[code],...
)date
comparators: gt,lt,ge,le
date
(e.g.date=[date]&date=[date]]&...
)GET [base]/Observation?patient={Type/}[id]&code={system|}[code]{,{system|}[code],...}&date={gt|lt|ge|le}[date]{&date={gt|lt|ge|le}[date]&...}
Example:
Implementation Notes: Fetches a bundle of all Observation resources for the specified patient and date and observation code(s) (how to search by reference and how to search by token and how to search by date)
