ExtensionUKCoreSpecimenCollectionCollector (Extension)	C		Extension	Element id Extension Short description Person who collected the specimen. Definition Person who collected the specimen. Data type Extension Conditions The cardinality or value of this element may be affected by these constraints: ele-1 Constraints ele-1: All FHIR elements must have a @value or children `hasValue() or (children().count() > id.count())` ext-1: Must have either extensions or value[x], not both `extension.exists() != value.exists()` Mappings rim: n/a rim: N/A
id		0..1	string	There are no (further) constraints on this element Element id Extension.id Short description Unique id for inter-element referencing Definition Unique id for the element within a resource (for internal references). This may be any string value that does not contain spaces. Data type string Mappings rim: n/a
extension	C	0..*	Extension	There are no (further) constraints on this element Element id Extension.extension Short description Additional content defined by implementations Alternate names extensions, user content Definition 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. Comments There can be no stigma associated with the use of extensions by any application, project, or standard - regardless of the institution or jurisdiction that uses or defines the extensions. The use of extensions is what allows the FHIR specification to retain a core level of simplicity for everyone. Data type Extension Slicing Unordered, Open, by url(Value) Extensions are always sliced by (at least) url Constraints ele-1: All FHIR elements must have a @value or children `hasValue() or (children().count() > id.count())` ext-1: Must have either extensions or value[x], not both `extension.exists() != value.exists()` Mappings rim: n/a
url		1..1	uriAuto Value	Element id Extension.url Short description identifies the meaning of the extension Definition Source of the definition for the extension code - a logical name or a URL. Comments The definition may point directly to a computable or human-readable definition of the extensibility codes, or it may be a logical URI as declared in some other specification. The definition SHALL be a URI for the Structure Definition defining the extension. Data type uri Auto value http://hl7.org/fhir/5.0/StructureDefinition/extension-Specimen.collection.collector Mappings rim: N/A
value[x]		1..1		Element id Extension.value[x] Short description Person who collected the specimen. Definition Value of extension - must be one of a constrained set of the data types (see Extensibility for a list). Constraints ele-1: All FHIR elements must have a @value or children `hasValue() or (children().count() > id.count())` Mappings rim: N/A

Examples

Extension Specific Guidance

Where possible, it is expected that the resource being referenced SHOULD conform to one of the following UK Core profiles:
