IEEE MDC codes for Basic Observations usable in Denmark
This ValueSet comprises the most common IEEE MDC codes used to represent observations that are considered “basic” by this profile. This ValueSet is not meant to be exhaustive!
The origin of an MDC code is usually the equipment used to perform the measurement, and often the code carries supplemental information about how (or where on the body) the observation was performed.

This value set contains 36 concepts
Explanation of the columns that may appear on this page:
| Level | A few code lists that FHIR defines are hierarchical - each code is assigned a level. In this scheme, some codes are under other codes, and imply that the code they are under also applies |
| System | The source of the definition of the code (when the value set draws in codes defined elsewhere) |
| Code | The code (used as the code in the resource instance) |
| Display | The display (used in the display element of a Coding). If there is no display, implementers should not simply display the code, but map the concept into their application |
| Definition | An explanation of the meaning of the concept |
| Comments | Additional notes about how to use the code |
