Description
The Profile Specific Implementation Guidance indicates:
Because the blood pressure values are communicated in the mandatory systolic and diastolic components:
- the Observation.value[x] element SHOULD be omitted
It seems that the Observation.component.value and .dataAbsentReason would always be used to either have a value or a reason why it is not valued when 96607-7 is used. Therefore it is unclear that Observation.value SHOULD be omitted rather than stating it SHALL be omitted. Suggest to change the "SHOULD" to a "SHALL" to avoid that Observation.value includes something that has no meaning or would be hard to understand. If there is a scenario where it is reasonable to have a value in Observation.value that should be clarified, but we are not aware of any.
