The following defining attributes correspond to the Physical Object Attributes Summary table.
This attribute represents the absorbability aspect of an object.
For example,
705633004 |Bioabsorbable vascular stent (physical object)| Has absorbability value of 860574003 |Bioabsorbable (qualifier value)|
This attribute represents a substance that is intended to mix with a sample, e.g. a fluid, granular substance or a spray coating on the inside of a container. An additive can be added to a container at time of manufacture, or to a specimen while or after the specimen is added to the container.
For example,
767382000 |Evacuated blood collection tube with heparin sodium (physical object)| |Has additive of 50045009 |Heparin sodium (substance)|
This attribute represents the material with which an object is coated.
For example,
717296006 |Polymer coated metal colonic stent (physical object)| Has coating material value of 412155002 |Polymer (substance)|
This attribute represents the material or substance of which an object is composed.
For example,
257363003 |Metal stent (physical object)| Has compositional material value of 425620007 |Metal (substance)|
This attribute represents the site where the device is intended to reside in or on the body.
For example,
705472007 |Esophageal stent (physical object)| Has device intended site value of 32849002 |Esophageal structure (body structure)|
This attribute represents the material or substance that fills an object.
For example,
464376000 |Saline-filled breast implant (physical object)| Has filling value of 387390002 |Sodium chloride (substance)|
This attribute represents a separator, something that is intended to keep parts of a sample apart. A separator can be a substance, such as a gel separator, or a mechanical separator, such as a plastic barrier.
For example,
767390000 |Evacuated blood collection tube with heparin lithium and gel separator (physical object)| Has separator of 1343637004 |Gel separator (substance)|
This attribute represents the tactile characteristic or appearance of the surface of an object.
For example,
769177007 |Saline-filled smooth breast implant (physical object)| Has surface texture value of 82280004 |Smooth (qualifier value)|
This attribute represents the type of specimen that the container was intended to contain by its manufacturer.
For example,
767390000 |Evacuated blood collection tube with heparin lithium and gel separator (physical object)| Is receptacle for 119297000 |Blood specimen (specimen)|
This attribute represents the sterility quality (e.g. sterile or non-sterile) of an object.
For example,
716668000 |Non-sterile bare metal esophageal stent (physical object)| Is sterile value of 64100000 |False (qualifier value)|
