| Title | R4B: strength additional types |
| Realm | uv |
| Authority | hl7 |
| Description | R4B: `Medication.ingredient.strength` additional types (Ratio) additional types from child elements (denominator, numerator) |
| Purpose | This extension is part of the cross-version definitions generated to enable use of the element `Medication.ingredient.strength` as defined in FHIR R4B in FHIR STU3. The source element is defined as: `Medication.ingredient.strength` 0..1 `Ratio` Across FHIR versions, the element set has been mapped as: * R4B: `Medication.ingredient.strength` 0..1 `Ratio` * R4: `Medication.ingredient.strength` 0..1 `Ratio` * STU3: `Medication.ingredient.amount` 0..1 `Ratio` Following are the generation technical comments: Element `Medication.ingredient.strength` is mapped to FHIR STU3 element `Medication.ingredient.amount` as `SourceIsBroaderThanTarget`. The mappings for `Medication.ingredient.strength` do not cover the following types: Ratio. The mappings for `Medication.ingredient.strength` do not cover the following types based on type expansion: denominator, numerator. |
