All codes from system http://hl7.org/fhir/reaction-event-certainty
| Code | Display | Definition | 
| unlikely | Unlikely | There is a low level of clinical certainty that the reaction was caused by the identified substance. | 
| likely | Likely | There is a high level of clinical certainty that the reaction was caused by the identified substance. | 
| confirmed | Confirmed | There is a very high level of clinical certainty that the reaction was due to the identified substance, which may include clinical evidence by testing or rechallenge. | 
| unknown | Unknown | The clinical certainty that the reaction was caused by the identified substance is unknown. It is an explicit assertion that certainty is not known. |

Explanation of the columns that may appear on this page:
| Lvl | A few code lists that FHIR defines are hierarchical - each code is assigned a level. For value sets, levels are mostly used to organise codes for user convenience, but may follow code system hierarchy - see Code System for further information | 
| Source | 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). If the code is in italics, this indicates that the code is not selectable ('Abstract') | 
| 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 |
