Class: Master_continuous_observation

Description of: Master_continuous_observation

Class steward is Orders/Observation
A test/observation service for which continuous value results are generated.

Attribute definitions for: Master_continuous_observation

corresponding_SI_unit_of_measure_cd

The SI units of measure, when these differ from the customary units of measure

Rationale: previously unmatched V2.3 field

OpenIssue:

|OM2^4^00629^Corresponding SI Units of Measure|

customary_unit_of_measure

The customary units of measure for a tests/observation that has numeric values

Rationale: V2.3 field is not part of an amount/UOM combination.

OpenIssue:

|OM2^2^00627^Units of Measure|

delta_check_numeric_change_computation_method_txt

Specifies the computational method for change determination for controlling delta check warnings for numeric data. More than one delta check rule can apply.

Rationale: required by components of V2.3 field

OpenIssue:

|OM2^9^00634^Delta Check Criteria|

delta_check_numeric_change_threshold_nm

Specifies the change threshold information for controlling delta check warnings for numeric data. More than one delta check rule can apply

Rationale: required by components of V2.3 field

OpenIssue:

|OM2^9^00634^Delta Check Criteria|

delta_check_numeric_high_value_nm

Specifies the high value information for controlling delta check warnings for numeric data. More than one delta check rule can apply.

Rationale: required by components of V2.3 field

OpenIssue:

|OM2^9^00634^Delta Check Criteria|

delta_check_numeric_low_value_nm

Specifies the low value information for controlling delta check warnings. More than one delta check rule can apply.

Rationale: required by components of V2.3 field

OpenIssue:

|OM2^9^00634^Delta Check Criteria|

delta_check_numeric_retention_days_qty

Specifies the retention time information for controlling delta check warnings for numeric data. More than one delta check rule can apply.

Rationale: required by components of V2.3 field

OpenIssue:

|OM2^9^00634^Delta Check Criteria|

length_and_decimal_precision_nm

A specification of the total length and the number of decimal positions for numerically valued single observations.

Rationale: related V2.3 field is a number, not an amount

|OM2^3^00628^Range of Decimal Precision|

minimum_meaningful_increment_nm

The smallest meaningful difference between reported values; the effective resolution of the measuring instrument or technique for continuous data, or the smallest discrete interval that can occur for discrete data.

Rationale: This is a pure number. The units are the same as for the reported values. They are not respecified here.

|OM2^10^00635^Minimum Meaningful Increments|

si_conversion_factor_txt

A factor for converting customary units to SI units. Can be specified as an equation or a multiplier.

Rationale: related V2.3 field is TX datatype

|OM2^5^00630^SI Conversion Factor|
