Topic: Clinical Impression - Problem, Investigations, Findings
Binu DGIT (Dec 08 2016 at 08:04):
Why there is no option with clinical impression to keep text for Problem, Investigations, findings and Plan? Right now all are given as references whereas many time the initial writing will be always as simple text data.
Is there any profile available which match with this requirement?

if you just have text, that's ClinicalImpression.summary

It is difficult to separate out individual items problems, Investigations, finding etc. from a single ClinicalImpression.summary text. Need to identify attributes individually but data type to be maintained as String
Lloyd McKenzie (Dec 11 2016 at 16:00):
When you have a Reference data type, you have a Reference.display you could use to capture text. (I wouldn't recommend using it to capture paragraphs worth of text, but a short sentence would be fine). If you want more than that, then use the narrative of the referenced resource

(which could be contained)
Richard Townley-O'Neill (Dec 14 2016 at 00:21):
As I see it, Reference.display is for identifying the reference, not for summarising it. See http://build.fhir.org/references-definitions.html#Reference.display
- Definition: Plain text narrative that identifies the resource in addition to the resource reference.
- Comments: This is generally not the same as the Resource.text of the referenced resource. The purpose is to identify what's being referenced, not to fully describe it.

fully describe != summarise.
