Concepts

This case-sensitive code system http://terminology.hl7.org/CodeSystem/v3-EntityRisk defines the following codes in a Is-A hierarchy:

Lvl | Code | Display | Definition | Status
1 | AGG | aggressive | A danger that can be associated with certain living subjects, including humans. | active
1 | BIO | Biological | The dangers associated with normal biological materials. I.e. potential risk of unknown infections. Routine biological materials from living subjects. | active
1 | COR | Corrosive | Material is corrosive and may cause severe injury to skin, mucous membranes and eyes. Avoid any unprotected contact. | active
1 | ESC | Escape Risk | The entity is at risk for escaping from containment or control. | active
1 | IFL | inflammable | Material is highly inflammable and in certain mixtures (with air) may lead to explosions. Keep away from fire, sparks and excessive heat. | active
2 | EXP | explosive | Material is an explosive mixture. Keep away from fire, sparks, and heat. | active
1 | INF | infectious | Material known to be infectious with human pathogenic microorganisms. Those who handle this material must take precautions for their protection. | active
2 | BHZ | biohazard | Material contains microorganisms that is an environmental hazard. Must be handled with special care. | active
1 | INJ | injury hazard | Material is solid and sharp (e.g., cannulas). Dispose in hard container. | active
1 | POI | poison | Material is poisonous to humans and/or animals. Special care must be taken to avoid incorporation, even of small amounts. | active
1 | RAD | radioactive | Material is a source for ionizing radiation and must be handled with special care to avoid injury of those who handle it and to avoid environmental hazards. | active
