This case-sensitive code system http://terminology.hl7.org/CodeSystem/research-study-purpose-type defines the following codes:

Code | Display | Definition
treatment | Treatment Study | One or more interventions are being evaluated for treating a disease, syndrome, or condition.
prevention | Prevention Study | One or more interventions are being evaluated for preventing the development of a disease or condition.
diagnostic | Diagnostic Study | One or more methods are being evaluated for use in detecting a disease or condition, typically in persons who have symptoms or signs of the condition. For example, a mammography to evaluate a palpable mass.
screening | Screening Study | One or more methods are being evaluated for use in detecting a disease or condition, in people who do not yet show symptoms or signs of the condition. For example, a mammography every 2 years in a woman with no current breast concerns.
supportive-care | Supportive Care Study | One or more interventions are being evaluated for maximizing comfort, minimizing side effects, or mitigating against a decline in the participant's health or function.
health-services-research | Health Services Research | An investigation for evaluating the delivery, processes, management, organization, or financing of health care.
basic-science | Basic Science | An investigation to increase general scientific knowledge, such as examining the mechanism of action (for example, physiology or biomechanics) of a disease process or intervention.
device-feasibility | Device Feasibility Study | An intervention of a device product is being evaluated to determine the feasibility of the product or to test a prototype device and not health outcomes. Such studies are conducted to confirm the design and operating specifications of a device before beginning a full clinical trial.
safety | Safety Study | One or more interventions are being evaluated for associated risks or adverse events. (Note: Risks associated with interventions are evaluated in Safety Studies, whereas risks associated with conditions or non-interventional exposures are evaluated in Risk Association Studies.)
risk-association | Risk Association Study | One or more conditions or non-interventional exposures are being evaluated for associated risks or adverse events. (Note: Risks associated with interventions are evaluated in Safety Studies, whereas risks associated with conditions or non-interventional exposures are evaluated in Risk Association Studies.)
efficacy | Efficacy Study | One or more interventions are being evaluated for how well they achieve their intended purpose, such as the ability to treat or prevent a disease, syndrome, or condition.
pharmacokinetic | Pharmacokinetic Study | A study of the process or processes by which a drug is absorbed, distributed, metabolized, or eliminated by the body.
pharmacodynamic | Pharmacodynamic Study | A study of the mechanism of drug action, biochemical effect, or physiological effect of a drug.
bioequivalence | Bioequivalence Study | A study comparing two drug formulations to evaluate similarity in pharmacokinetic effects to determine if they are therapeutically interchangeable.
dose-response | Dose-Response Study | A study evaluating the relationship between the amount of a substance or degree of exposure and the resulting effect or biological response.
pharmacogenetic | Pharmacogenetic Study | A study evaluating how specific gene variations affect individual drug responses.
pharmacogenomic | Pharmacogenomic Study | A study evaluating how multiple gene variations affect individual drug responses.
pharmacoeconomic | Pharmacoeconomic Study | A study evaluating the economic costs and value of a drug. This may include cost-effectiveness, cost-benefit, and cost-utility analyses.
incidence | Incidence Study | A study that assesses the occurrence of new cases of disease, condition, or injury in a defined population over a specified period of time.
prevalence | Prevalence Study | A study that assesses the proportion of members of a population who have a particular disease, condition, or injury at a specified point in time or over a specified period of time.
prediction | Prediction Study | One or more methods are being evaluated for use in predicting the risk of a disease or condition.
