## ValueSet: Medication Dose Form Value Set

Official URL: https://fhir.dghs.gov.bd/core/ValueSet/bd-medication-dose-form | Version: 0.4.0
Standards status: Informative | Maturity Level: 1 | Computable Name: BDMedicationDoseFormVS

Value set containing pharmaceutical dose form concepts from the European Directorate for the Quality of Medicines (EDQM) Standard Terms, domain: Pharmaceutical Dose Forms (PDF).

This value set is used to code the physical form of a medication product in BDMedication.form. EDQM Standard Terms are maintained and versioned by the Council of Europe and are the WHO-recommended international standard for pharmaceutical dose form coding.

Concepts are loaded into the national OCL terminology server at https://tr.ocl.dghs.gov.bd under the MoHFW organisation as source EDQM-PDF.

Binding: preferred on BDMedication.form — systems should use EDQM codes when populating dose form, but omission is permitted. A mapping from DGDA plain text dose forms to EDQM codes is planned for a future IG version.

Explanation of the columns that may appear on this page:

Level | A few code lists that FHIR defines are hierarchical - each code is assigned a level. In this scheme, some codes are under other codes, and imply that the code they are under also applies
System | 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)
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
Comments | Additional notes about how to use the code
