This extension supports the sharing of the observation(s) that triggered the performance of the main observation.

This is a Pathology use case to backport R5 functionality to identify the observation(s) that triggered the performance of this observation.

DefinitionMay be used to represent additional information that is not part of the basic definition of the element.

There can be no stigma associated with the use of extensions by any application, project, or standard - regardless of the institution or jurisdiction that uses or defines the extensions. The use of extensions is what allows the FHIR specification to retain a core level of simplicity for everyone.
