Value Set Description from VSAC
Clinical Focus: This value set contains concepts that represent positive test results. This is intended to be paired with other concepts that identify specific medical tests.
Data Element Scope: This value set may use the Quality Data Model (QDM) attribute related to Result.
Inclusion Criteria: Includes only relevant concepts associated with identifying a positive test result.
Exclusion Criteria: Excludes concepts that identify a specific type of medical test.

QDM Attribute and Definition (QDM Version 5.4)
result
The final consequences or data collected from the datatype. Results can be used in four ways, to express: (1) That a result is present in the electronic record but any entry is acceptable. (2) A numerical result is reported directly as a value. Values may be integers or decimal numbers without units, or as a quantity with a value and units. Examples: 100 mg/dL for a lab test, 140 mmHg for blood pressure, as a percentage (actually a quantity with % as units), as a ratio (e.g., 1:4, 1:80). (3) A result that matches one of a specific set of coded concepts in a value set or a code that matches a direct reference code. (4) A result as a dateTime (Assessment, Performed and components). Note: Measures use Clinical Quality Language (CQL) logic to express the mathematical operators to constrain desired results to those above or below a certain threshold.
