Resource Profile: UKCore Observation Vital Signs Oxygen Saturation

Defines the additional constraints and extensions on the UK Core Observation Vital Signs profile, for recording a patients oxygen saturation vital sign

To provide implementers with additional support when implementing blood oxygen saturation monitoring and to provide a consistent structure to how the data is presented.

Usage:
