This ValueSet defines the Mandatory Interoperable Value (MIV) "Blood Glucose Measurement". The definition is made up from

  • this description which provides the semantics and defining characteristics of the MIV
  • a set of LOINC codes that define MIV-compliant measurement classifications along the LOINC axes component, system, scale and method

The MIV Blood Glucose Measurement covers values from "bloody measurements" e.g. using capillary blood from the finger tip. Measurements are performed based on a care plan (e.g. measuring blood sugar before each meal) or ad hoc (e.g. a patient feeling dim what may be an indicator for a hypoglycamia). Values are very acurate and therefore suited for therapeutical decision making.

The ValueSet for the MIV Blood Glucose Measurement contains LOINC codes for blood glucose measurements using blood or plasma as reference methods with the values provided as mass/volume and moles/volume. In addition more granular LOINC codes for "Glucose in Capillary blood by Glucometer" provided as mass/volume and moles/volume are included with the value set because these codes are already in use by several manufacturers of glucometers.

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
