Section Text

The text of a section is structured CDA elements which can be used to present a display of data represented in the entries (or in the case of a level 2 section, the data itself). Whenever text from an entry is represented, it shall be referenced. For example, the following would be invalid:
<component typeCode="COMP" contextConductionInd="true">
<section classCode="DOCSECT" moodCode="EVN">
...
<text mediaType="text/x-hl7-text+xml">
...
</text>
<entry typeCode="DRIV" contextConductionInd="true">
<organizer classCode="BATTERY" moodCode="EVN">
<component typeCode="COMP" contextConductionInd="true">
<observation classCode="OBS" moodCode="EVN">
<text representation="TXT" language="en-US">
Some sort of observation
</text>
Rather, text of the entries are linked to the text of the section via the ID and reference elements:
<component typeCode="COMP" contextConductionInd="true">
<section classCode="DOCSECT" moodCode="EVN">
<text mediaType="text/x-hl7-text+xml">
<list>
<item ID="obs1">
Some sort of observation
</item>
</list>
</text>
<entry typeCode="DRIV" contextConductionInd="true">
<organizer classCode="BATTERY" moodCode="EVN">
<component typeCode="COMP" contextConductionInd="true">
<observation classCode="OBS" moodCode="EVN">
<text representation="TXT" language="en-US">
<reference value="#obs1"/>
</text>
