description: This profile sets minimum expectations for an Observation resource to record, search, and fetch observations that represent a patient’s tobacco smoking start date with standard coding. It is based on the core FHIR [Observation](http://hl7.org/fhir/R4/observation.html) resource and identifies the *additional* mandatory core elements, extensions, vocabularies and value sets that **SHALL** be present in the Observation resource when conforming to this profile. It provides the floor for standards development for specific uses cases in an Australian context. \n\n Smoking start date is the date at which a person first started smoking. This date is typically recorded once for a person and is not subsequently updated if a person has quit and then restarted. package_name: hl7.fhir.au.core derivation: constraint name: AUCoreSmokingStartDate type: Observation elements: category: mustSupport: true index: 1 slicing: rules: open discriminator: - {path: $this, type: pattern} min: 1 slices: socialHistory: match: coding: - {code: social-history, system: 'http://terminology.hl7.org/CodeSystem/observation-category'} schema: pattern: type: CodeableConcept value: coding: - {code: social-history, system: 'http://terminology.hl7.org/CodeSystem/observation-category'} _required: true index: 2 min: 1 max: 1 encounter: type: Reference mustSupport: true refers: ['http://hl7.org.au/fhir/core/StructureDefinition/au-core-encounter'] index: 5 value: mustSupport: true choices: [valueDateTime] index: 11 valueDateTime: {type: dateTime, mustSupport: true, choiceOf: value, index: 12} effectiveDateTime: constraint: au-core-obs-01: {human: Date shall be at least to day, source: 'http://hl7.org.au/fhir/core/StructureDefinition/au-core-smokingstartdate', severity: error, expression: $this is DateTime implies $this.toString().length() >= 10} short: Date, and optionally time, the observation was performed type: dateTime mustSupport: true choiceOf: effective index: 8 status: pattern: {type: Code, value: final} mustSupport: true index: 0 effective: constraint: au-core-obs-01: {human: Date shall be at least to day, source: 'http://hl7.org.au/fhir/core/StructureDefinition/au-core-smokingstartdate', severity: error, expression: $this is DateTime implies $this.toString().length() >= 10} short: Date, and optionally time, the observation was performed mustSupport: true choices: [effectiveDateTime] index: 7 code: mustSupport: true pattern: type: CodeableConcept value: coding: - {code: '1507541000168104', system: 'http://snomed.info/sct'} index: 3 subject: type: Reference mustSupport: true refers: ['http://hl7.org/fhir/StructureDefinition/Patient'] index: 4 performer: type: Reference mustSupport: true refers: ['http://hl7.org.au/fhir/core/StructureDefinition/au-core-organization', 'http://hl7.org.au/fhir/core/StructureDefinition/au-core-patient', 'http://hl7.org.au/fhir/core/StructureDefinition/au-core-practitioner', 'http://hl7.org.au/fhir/core/StructureDefinition/au-core-practitionerrole', 'http://hl7.org.au/fhir/core/StructureDefinition/au-core-relatedperson'] index: 9 dataAbsentReason: {mustSupport: true, index: 13} package_version: 0.2.2-preview class: profile kind: resource url: http://hl7.org.au/fhir/core/StructureDefinition/au-core-smokingstartdate base: http://hl7.org/fhir/StructureDefinition/Observation version: 0.2.2-preview required: [effectiveDateTime, subject, category, effective]
