| *Official URL*:https://fhir.dghs.gov.bd/core/StructureDefinition/bd-lab-report | *Version*:0.4.0 | |
| * Standards status: *[Informative](http://hl7.org/fhir/R4/versions.html#std-process) | [Maturity Level](http://hl7.org/fhir/versions.html#maturity): 1 | *Computable Name*:BDLabReportProfile |

 
Profile for laboratory DiagnosticReport in Bangladesh, aligned with IPS (International Patient Summary) DiagnosticReport pattern. 
Usage: 
* Represents a complete laboratory report for a patient encounter
* DiagnosticReport.result references panel-level Observations (bd-lab-panel-observation) or standalone result Observations (bd-lab-result-observation) where no panel grouping exists
* DiagnosticReport.code is fixed to LOINC 11502-2 (Laboratory report)
* specimen is SHOULD (MS, 0..*)
 
Report structure: bd-lab-report (DiagnosticReport) ├── result –> bd-lab-panel-observation │ └── hasMember –> bd-lab-result-observation (x N) └── result –> bd-lab-result-observation (standalone, no panel)
