## Resource Profile: Patient (EU base)

This profile specifies how the HL7 FHIR Patient resource should be used for conveying commonly used concepts in the European context.

### Sex and Gender extensions

#### Sex Parameters for Clinical Use

Sex Parameters for Clinical Use (SPCU) may be used in specific clinical contexts. However, there are cases where having a context-free categorisation of a patient can be useful. When using SPCU at a patient level, consider if any information is available suggesting that the patient is NOT male-typical or female-typical across all clinical contexts, then using specified as the patient-level SPCU is most appropriate.

#### Gender Identity

This represents an individual’s identity, ascertained by asking them what that identity is. The standard extension supports multiple gender identities, with relevant periods to account for a patient’s gender identity changing over time.

#### Pronouns

The pronouns to use when referring to an individual in verbal or written communication.

More details about these and other sex/gender related extensions can be found in the HL7 Cross Paradigm Implementation Guide: Gender Harmony - Sex and Gender Representation, Edition 1.
