Union of http://hl7.org/fhir/us/core/StructureDefinition/us-core-vital-signs and http://hl7.org/fhir/us/core/StructureDefinition/us-core-vital-signs

This is the set of resources that conform to either of the profiles US Core Vital Signs Profile (http://hl7.org/fhir/us/core/StructureDefinition/us-core-vital-signs) and US Core Vital Signs Profile (http://hl7.org/fhir/us/core/StructureDefinition/us-core-vital-signs). E.g. what you have to deal with if you get resources conforming to one of them
