Resource Profile: EMA Core Observation Definition (Parámetro de examen)

Official URL: https://emahealth.io/fhir/core/StructureDefinition/ema-core-observation-definition Version: 0.2.0
Draft as of 2026-07-19 Computable Name: EmaCoreObservationDefinition

Definición de un parámetro de examen de laboratorio, agnóstica de país. Es el objetivo de ActivityDefinition.observationResultRequirement (el examen como panel de parámetros). Soporta tipo de resultado (permittedDataType), armonización de unidades (quantitativeDetails), rangos con 5 familias de flag (qualifiedInterval + extensión ema-interval-category), sets de valores cualitativos (valid/normal/abnormal/critical + extensión ema-significant-coded-valueset) e identificadores múltiples semánticos (code.coding[]) y operacionales (identifier[]).
