The US Realm Patient Name datatype flavor is a set of reusable constraints that can be used for the patient or any other person. It requires a first (given) and last (family) name. If a patient or person has only one name part (e.g., patient with first name only) place the name part in the field required by the organization. Use the appropriate nullFlavor, "Not Applicable" (NA), in the other field. For information on mixed content see the Extensible Markup Language reference (http://www.w3c.org/TR/2008/REC-xml-20081126/).
A name for a person. A sequence of name parts, such as given name or family name, prefix, suffix, etc. Examples for person name values are "Jim Bob Walton, Jr.", "Adam Everyman", etc. A person name may be as simple as a character string or may consist of several person name parts, such as, "Jim", "Bob", "Walton", and "Jr.". PN differs from EN because the qualifier type cannot include LS (Legal Status).
No PN name part may have a qualifier of LS.
(item.delimiter | item.family | item.given | item.prefix | item.suffix).where(qualifier.where($this = 'LS').exists()).empty()
SHALL contain exactly one [1..1] family (CONF:81-7159).
nullFlavor.exists() or item.family.count() = 1
SHALL contain at least one [1..*] given (CONF:81-7157).
nullFlavor.exists() or item.given.exists()
(item.suffix.empty() or item.suffix.count() = 1)
**SHALL NOT** have mixed content except for white space (CONF:81-7278).
If a value is an exceptional value (NULL-value), this specifies in what way and why proper information is missing.
If name/@nullFlavor is present, the remaining conformance statements *SHALL NOT* be enforced
A set of codes advising a system or user which name in a set of like names to select for a given purpose. A name without specific use code might be a default name useful for any purpose, but a name with a specific use code would be preferred for that respective purpose
MAY contain zero or one [0..1] @use, which SHALL be selected from ValueSet EntityNameUse urn:oid:2.16.840.1.113883.1.11.15913 STATIC 2005-05-01 (CONF:81-7154).
A series of items that constitute the name.

(delimiter | family | given | prefix | suffix | xmlText).count() = 1
Specifies the representation of the binary data that is the content of the binary data value
Identifies the type of the encapsulated data and identifies a method to interpret or render the data.
For character based information the language property specifies the human language of the text.
This element is represented in XML as textual content. The actual name "xmlText" will not appear in a CDA instance.
Indicates whether the name part is a given name, family name, prefix, suffix, etc.
qualifier is a set of codes each of which specifies a certain subcategory of the name part in addition to the main name part type. For example, a given name may be flagged as a nickname, a family name may be a pseudonym or a name of public records.
This family MAY contain zero or one [0..1] @qualifier, which SHALL be selected from ValueSet EntityPersonNamePartQualifier urn:oid:2.16.840.1.113883.11.20.9.26 STATIC 2011-09-30 (CONF:81-7160).

MAY contain zero or more [0..*] prefix (CONF:81-7155).
The prefix, if present, MAY contain zero or one [0..1] @qualifier, which SHALL be selected from ValueSet EntityPersonNamePartQualifier urn:oid:2.16.840.1.113883.11.20.9.26 STATIC 2011-09-30 (CONF:81-7156).
MAY contain zero or one [0..1] suffix (CONF:81-7161).
The suffix, if present, MAY contain zero or one [0..1] @qualifier, which SHALL be selected from ValueSet EntityPersonNamePartQualifier urn:oid:2.16.840.1.113883.11.20.9.26 STATIC 2011-09-30 (CONF:81-7162).
