inverted Indicates if the sense of the role name is inverted. This can be used in cases where the underlying code system defines inversion but does not provide reciprocal pairs of role names. By default, inverted is false. Boolean 0:1
label A short human readable string indicating the content of the instancehuman-readable string for the instance String 0:1
name Specifies the manner in which the concept role value contributes to the meaning of a code phrase. For example, if SNOMED RT defines a concept "leg", a role relation "has-laterality", and another concept "left", the concept role relation allows to add the qualifier "has-laterality: left" to a primary code "leg" to construct the meaning "left leg". In this example "has-laterality" is the CR.name. ConceptDescriptor 0:1
nullFlavor If a value is an exceptional value (NULL-value), this specifies in what way and why proper information is missing. Class 0:1
value The concept that modifies the primary code of a code phrase through the role relation. For example, if SNOMED RT defines a concept "leg", a role relation "has-laterality", and another concept "left", the concept role relation allows adding the qualifier "has-laterality: left" to a primary code "leg" to construct the meaning "left leg". In this example "left" is the CR.value.A data value Any 0:1
