description: This template represents patient Goals. A goal is a defined outcome or condition to be achieved in the process of patient care. Goals include patient-defined over-arching goals (e.g., alleviation of health concerns, desired/intended positive outcomes from interventions, longevity, function, symptom management, comfort) and health concern-specific or intervention-specific goals to achieve desired outcomes. package_name: hl7.cda.us.ccda derivation: constraint name: GoalsSection type: http://hl7.org/cda/stds/core/StructureDefinition/Section elements: nullFlavor: {short: 'If a required section contains no information, the @nullFlavor MAY be set to NI', index: 0} templateId: index: 1 slicing: rules: open discriminator: - {path: root, type: value} min: 1 slices: section: match: {root: 2.16.840.1.113883.10.20.22.2.60} schema: _required: true index: 2 elements: root: pattern: {type: String, value: 2.16.840.1.113883.10.20.22.2.60} index: 3 extension: {index: 4} required: [root] extensions: {} code: short: Goals Narrative index: 5 elements: code: pattern: {type: Code, value: 61146-7} index: 6 codeSystem: pattern: {type: String, value: 2.16.840.1.113883.6.1} index: 7 required: [codeSystem, code] title: {index: 8} text: {index: 9} entry: short: 'If section/@nullFlavor is not present:' index: 10 slicing: rules: open discriminator: - {path: observation, type: profile} min: null slices: goal: match: {} schema: array: true index: 11 elements: observation: {type: 'http://hl7.org/cda/stds/core/StructureDefinition/Observation', index: 12} required: [observation] package_version: 4.0.0-ballot class: logical kind: logical url: http://hl7.org/cda/us/ccda/StructureDefinition/GoalsSection base: http://hl7.org/cda/stds/core/StructureDefinition/Section version: 4.0.0-ballot required: [text, title, templateId, code]
