0. Range
Définition	A set of ordered Quantities defined by a low and high limit.
Short	Set of values bounded by low and high
Commentaires	The stated low and high value are assumed to have arbitrarily high precision when it comes to determining which values are in the range. I.e. 1.99 is not in the range 2 -> 3.
Control	0..* This element is affected by the following invariants: ele-1
Is Modifier	false
Invariants	ele-1: All FHIR elements must have a @value or children (hasValue() or (children().count() > id.count())) rng-2: If present, low SHALL have a lower value than high (`low.empty() or high.empty() or (low <= high)`) rng-2: If present, low SHALL have a lower value than high (low.empty() or high.empty() or (low <= high))
2. Range.low
Définition	unit of measure SHALL be UCUM encoded The low limit. The boundary is inclusive.
Short	low bound with UCUM unitLow limit
Commentaires	If the low element is missing, the low boundary is not known.
Control	0..1
Type	Quantity(SimpleQuantity with UCUM quantity unit, SimpleQuantity)
Is Modifier	false
Résumé	true
Requirements	force UCUM unit encoding
Invariants	ele-1: All FHIR elements must have a @value or children (hasValue() or (children().count() > id.count()))
4. Range.high
Définition	unit of measure SHALL be UCUM encoded The high limit. The boundary is inclusive.
Short	high bound with UCUM unitHigh limit
Commentaires	If the high element is missing, the high boundary is not known.
Control	0..1
Type	Quantity(SimpleQuantity with UCUM quantity unit, SimpleQuantity)
Is Modifier	false
Résumé	true
Requirements	force UCUM unit encoding
Invariants	ele-1: All FHIR elements must have a @value or children (hasValue() or (children().count() > id.count()))

Short	Set of values bounded by low and high
Commentaires	The stated low and high value are assumed to have arbitrarily high precision when it comes to determining which values are in the range. I.e. 1.99 is not in the range 2 -> 3.
Control	0..* This element is affected by the following invariants: ele-1
Is Modifier	false
Invariants	ele-1: All FHIR elements must have a @value or children (`hasValue() or (children().count() > id.count())`) rng-2: If present, low SHALL have a lower value than high (`low.empty() or high.empty() or (low <= high)`)
2. Range.id
Définition	Unique id for the element within a resource (for internal references). This may be any string value that does not contain spaces.
Short	Unique id for inter-element referencing
Control	0..1
Type	string
Is Modifier	false
XML Format	In the XML format, this property is represented as an attribute.
Résumé	false
4. Range.extension
Définition	May be used to represent additional information that is not part of the basic definition of the element. To make the use of extensions safe and manageable, there is a strict set of governance applied to the definition and use of extensions. Though any implementer can define an extension, there is a set of requirements that SHALL be met as part of the definition of the extension.
Short	Additional content defined by implementations
Commentaires	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.
Control	0..*
Type	Extension
Is Modifier	false
Résumé	false
Alternate Names	extensions, user content
Invariants	ele-1: All FHIR elements must have a @value or children (`hasValue() or (children().count() > id.count())`) ext-1: Must have either extensions or value[x], not both (`extension.exists() != value.exists()`)
Slicing	This element introduces a set of slices on `Range.extension`. The slices areUnordered and Open, and can be differentiated using the following discriminators: value @ url
6. Range.low
Définition	unit of measure SHALL be UCUM encoded
Short	low bound with UCUM unit
Commentaires	If the low element is missing, the low boundary is not known.
Control	0..1
Type	Quantity(SimpleQuantity with UCUM quantity unit)
Is Modifier	false
Résumé	true
Requirements	force UCUM unit encoding
Invariants	ele-1: All FHIR elements must have a @value or children (`hasValue() or (children().count() > id.count())`)
8. Range.high
Définition	unit of measure SHALL be UCUM encoded
Short	high bound with UCUM unit
Commentaires	If the high element is missing, the high boundary is not known.
Control	0..1
Type	Quantity(SimpleQuantity with UCUM quantity unit)
Is Modifier	false
Résumé	true
Requirements	force UCUM unit encoding
Invariants	ele-1: All FHIR elements must have a @value or children (`hasValue() or (children().count() > id.count())`)
