This value set expansion contains 4 concepts.
| Code | System | Display | Definition |
| continuous | http://hl7.org/fhir/variable-handling | continuous variable | A continuous variable is one for which, within the limits the variable ranges, any value is possible (from STATO http://purl.obolibrary.org/obo/STATO_0000251). |
| dichotomous | http://hl7.org/fhir/variable-handling | dichotomous variable | A dichotomous variable is a categorical variable which is defined to have only 2 categories or possible values (from STATO http://purl.obolibrary.org/obo/STATO_0000090). |
| ordinal | http://hl7.org/fhir/variable-handling | ordinal variable | An ordinal variable is a categorical variable where the discrete possible values are ordered or correspond to an implicit ranking (from STATO http://purl.obolibrary.org/obo/STATO_0000228). |
| polychotomous | http://hl7.org/fhir/variable-handling | polychotomous variable | A polychotomous variable is a categorical variable which is defined to have minimally 2 categories or possible values. (from STATO http://purl.obolibrary.org/obo/STATO_0000087). Suggestion to limit code use to situations when neither dichotomous nor ordinal variables apply. |
