Because a procedure generates many observations, I want to model the observations taken during the actual procedure. How do you link those observations correctly to a Procedure resource? Into the Observation resource, I can't find any reference to the Procedure resource.

I'm looking into FHIR STU3 (http://hl7.org/fhir/STU3/observation.html)
Here I can't find the partOf element towards a Procedure resource. FHIR release 4 supports this, as you mention.
