description: 'This template represents the observation that a patient has died. It also represents the cause of death, indicated by an entryRelationship type of CAUS. This template allows for more specific representation of data than is available with the use of dischargeDispositionCode.\n\n#### Templates Used\nAlthough open templates may contain any valid CDA content, the following templates are specifically called out by this template:\n\n**Optional EntryRelationships**: [ProblemObservation](StructureDefinition-ProblemObservation.html)'
