EvidenceVariable evidencevariable.xsd

The EvidenceVariable resource describes a “PICO” element that knowledge

(evidence, assertion, recommendation) is about.

If the element is present, it must have either a @value, an @id, or extensions

The EvidenceVariable resource describes a “PICO” element that knowledge

(evidence, assertion, recommendation) is about.

If the element is present, it must have either a @value, an @id, or extensions

param id_

The logical id of the resource, as used in the URL for the resource. Once

assigned, this value never changes.
param meta

The metadata about the resource. This is content that is maintained by the

infrastructure. Changes to the content might not always be associated with version changes to the resource.

param implicitRules

A reference to a set of rules that were followed when the resource was

constructed, and which must be understood when processing the content. Often, this is a reference to an implementation guide that defines the special rules along with other profiles etc.

param language

The base language in which the resource is written.

param text

A human-readable narrative that contains a summary of the resource and can be

used to represent the content of the resource to a human. The narrative need not encode all the structured data, but is required to contain sufficient detail to make it “clinically safe” for a human to just read the narrative. Resource definitions may define what content should be represented in the narrative to ensure clinical safety.

param contained

These resources do not have an independent existence apart from the resource

that contains them - they cannot be identified independently, and nor can they have their own independent transaction scope.

param extension

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

definition of the resource. 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 resource and that modifies the understanding of the element that contains it 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 is allowed to 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 url

An absolute URI that is used to identify this evidence variable when it is

referenced in a specification, model, design or an instance; also called its canonical identifier. This SHOULD be globally unique and SHOULD be a literal address at which at which an authoritative instance of this evidence variable is (or will be) published. This URL can be the target of a canonical reference. It SHALL remain the same when the evidence variable is stored on different servers.

param identifier

A formal identifier that is used to identify this evidence variable when it is

represented in other formats, or referenced in a specification, model, design or an instance.

param version

The identifier that is used to identify this version of the evidence variable

when it is referenced in a specification, model, design or instance. This is an arbitrary value managed by the evidence variable author and is not expected to be globally unique. For example, it might be a timestamp (e.g. yyyymmdd) if a managed version is not available. There is also no expectation that versions can be placed in a lexicographical sequence. To provide a version consistent with the Decision Support Service specification, use the format Major.Minor.Revision (e.g. 1.0.0). For more information on versioning knowledge assets, refer to the Decision Support Service specification. Note that a version is required for non-experimental active artifacts.

param name

A natural language name identifying the evidence variable. This name should be

usable as an identifier for the module by machine processing applications such as code generation.

param title

A short, descriptive, user-friendly title for the evidence variable.

param shortTitle

The short title provides an alternate title for use in informal descriptive

contexts where the full, formal title is not necessary.
param subtitle

An explanatory or alternate title for the EvidenceVariable giving additional

information about its content.
param status

The status of this evidence variable. Enables tracking the life-cycle of the

content.
param date

The date (and optionally time) when the evidence variable was published. The

date must change when the business version changes and it must change if the status code changes. In addition, it should change when the substantive content of the evidence variable changes.

param publisher

The name of the organization or individual that published the evidence

variable.
param contact

Contact details to assist a user in finding and communicating with the

publisher.
param description

A free text natural language description of the evidence variable from a

consumer’s perspective.
param note

A human-readable string to clarify or explain concepts about the resource.

param useContext

The content was developed with a focus and intent of supporting the contexts

that are listed. These contexts may be general categories (gender, age, …) or may be references to specific programs (insurance plans, studies, …) and may be used to assist with indexing and searching for appropriate evidence variable instances.

param jurisdiction

A legal or geographic region in which the evidence variable is intended to be

used.
param copyright

A copyright statement relating to the evidence variable and/or its contents.

Copyright statements are generally legal restrictions on the use and publishing of the evidence variable.

param approvalDate

The date on which the resource content was approved by the publisher. Approval

happens once when the content is officially approved for usage.
param lastReviewDate

The date on which the resource content was last reviewed. Review happens

periodically after approval but does not change the original approval date.
param effectivePeriod

The period during which the evidence variable content was or is planned to be

in active use.
param topic

Descriptive topics related to the content of the EvidenceVariable. Topics

provide a high-level categorization grouping types of EvidenceVariables that can be useful for filtering and searching.

param author

An individiual or organization primarily involved in the creation and

maintenance of the content.
param editor

An individual or organization primarily responsible for internal coherence of

the content.
param reviewer

An individual or organization primarily responsible for review of some aspect

of the content.
param endorser

An individual or organization responsible for officially endorsing the content

for use in some setting.
param relatedArtifact

Related artifacts such as additional documentation, justification, or

bibliographic references.
param type_

The type of evidence element, a population, an exposure, or an outcome.

param characteristic

A characteristic that defines the members of the evidence element. Multiple

characteristics are applied with “and” semantics.
