Observations are a central element in healthcare, used to support diagnosis, monitor progress, determine baselines and patterns and even capture demographic characteristics. Most observations are simple name/value pair assertions with some metadata, but some observations group other observations together logically, or even are multi-component observations. Note that the DiagnosticReport resource provides a clinical or workflow context for a set of observations and the Observation resource is referenced by DiagnosticReport to represent laboratory, imaging, and other clinical and diagnostic data to form a complete report.Uses for the Observation resource include:
Vital signs such as body weight, blood pressure, and temperature
Laboratory Data like blood glucose, or an estimated GFR
Imaging results like bone density or fetal measurements
Clinical Findings* such as abdominal tenderness
Device measurements such as EKG data or Pulse Oximetry data
Clinical assessment tools such as APGAR or a Glasgow Coma Score
Personal characteristics: such as eye-color
Social history like tobacco use, family support, or cognitive status
Core characteristics like pregnancy status, or a death assertion
