Topic: Population resource missing documentation?
Nick George (Apr 19 2019 at 18:26):
Hello, it looks like Population datatype is missing from from the datatypes webpage.
http://hl7.org/fhir/StructureDefinition/Population goes to the datatypes webpage, and http://hl7.org/fhir/datatypes.html#Population resolves to someplace seemingly pretty random. It also has http://hl7.org/fhir/StructureDefinition/BackboneElement as its base definitino instead of just Element
Nick George (Apr 19 2019 at 18:27):
Is there some information somewhere about how backbone element specializations work? I don't recall seeing these anywhere in stu3
Lloyd McKenzie (Apr 19 2019 at 18:36):
Population is draft, which is probably why it's not listed on the R4 page. (@Grahame Grieve is this something we'd consider fixing in the technical correction? There's probably some other evidence-based-medicine stuff that's not showing up too.
Michele Mottini (Apr 19 2019 at 18:37):
It has its own page: http://hl7.org/fhir/Population.html

Nick George (Apr 19 2019 at 18:39):
interesting. probably want to redirect http://hl7.org/fhir/StructureDefinition/Population (and http://hl7.org/fhir/datatypes.html#Population ) to that page
Nick George (Apr 19 2019 at 18:40):
are there any resources that make use of it?
Nick George (Apr 19 2019 at 18:41):
and what is the graduation plan out of "draft"? could that be in R4, or would it be R5 at the earliest?
Michele Mottini (Apr 19 2019 at 18:43):
Yes, it is used: http://hl7.org/fhir/MedicinalProductUndesirableEffect.html (and others)
Michele Mottini (Apr 19 2019 at 18:44):
It is in R4
Lloyd McKenzie (Apr 19 2019 at 18:44):
Graduation will be R5 at the earliest.
Michele Mottini (Apr 19 2019 at 18:45):
(sorry, read the question as 'is it in R4')
Nick George (Apr 19 2019 at 19:16):
is MedicinalProductUndesirableEffect also a draft?
Nick George (Apr 19 2019 at 19:17):
if not, how can a non-draft resource contain draft fields?
Lloyd McKenzie (Apr 19 2019 at 19:30):
Yes, that's draft.
