MedicationAdministration.Dosage

Describes the event of a patient consuming or otherwise being administered a medication. This may be as simple as swallowing a tablet or it may be a long running infusion. Related resources tie this event to the authorizing prescription, and the specific encounter between patient and health care practitioner.

param id_

None

param extension

May be used to represent additional information that is not part of the basic

definition of the element. To make the use of extensions safe and manageable, there is a strict set of governance applied to the definition and use of extensions. Though any implementer can define an extension, there is a set of requirements that SHALL be met as part of the definition of the extension.

param modifierExtension

May be used to represent additional information that is not part of the basic

definition of the element and that modifies the understanding of the element in which it is contained and/or the understanding of the containing element’s descendants. Usually modifier elements provide negation or qualification. To make the use of extensions safe and manageable, there is a strict set of governance applied to the definition and use of extensions. Though any implementer can define an extension, there is a set of requirements that SHALL be met as part of the definition of the extension. Applications processing a resource are required to check for modifier extensions.

Modifier extensions SHALL NOT change the meaning of any elements on Resource or DomainResource (including cannot change the meaning of modifierExtension itself).

param text

Free text dosage can be used for cases where the dosage administered is too

complex to code. When coded dosage is present, the free text dosage may still be present for display to humans.

The dosage instructions should reflect the dosage of the medication that was administered.

param site

A coded specification of the anatomic site where the medication first entered

the body. For example, “left arm”.
param route

A code specifying the route or physiological path of administration of a

therapeutic agent into or onto the patient. For example, topical, intravenous, etc.

param method

A coded value indicating the method by which the medication is intended to be

or was introduced into or on the body. This attribute will most often NOT be populated. It is most commonly used for injections. For example, Slow Push, Deep IV.

param dose

The amount of the medication given at one administration event. Use this

value when the administration is essentially an instantaneous event such as a swallowing a tablet or giving an injection.

param rateRatio

None

param rateQuantity

None
