## Resource Profile: AT PreNUDGE Questionnaire ( Abstract )

Official URL: https://fhir.hl7.at/prenudge/appdata/r4/StructureDefinition/at-prenudge-questionnaire | Version: 0.1.0
Draft as of 2026-05-28 | Responsible: The PreNUDGE Consortium | Computable Name: AtPrenudgeQuestionnaire

This FHIR profile is defining the overall Questionnaire for PreNUDGE. Every top level item requires one comment subitem, with the linkId ending or equal 'comment'. Be aware that if the user enters values from a device into a questionnaire, it is still considered a manual input. Please keep in mind that all questionnaires must comply with the qualification matrix on https://prenudge.at/qualificationmatrix/.

Usages:

- Examples for this Profile: AlcoholUseQuestionnaire, BloodGlucoseQuestionnaire, SleepDurationQuestionnaire, SleepQualityQuestionnaire... Show 3 more, StepCountEhisPaqQuestionnaire, StepCountQuantityQuestionnaire and AtPrenudgeQoLByWhoQolBref
