This profile sets the minimum expectations for an Observation resource to record heart rhythm observations. It is used to represent heart rhythm data captured during a First Nations Health Check that can be used to record the observation in a clinical record. 

**Usages:**

* Use this Profile: [Smart Health Checks Extract Bundle](StructureDefinition-SHCExtractBundle.md)
* CapabilityStatements using this Profile: [SHC App](CapabilityStatement-SHCAppCapabilityStatement.md) and [SHC Host FHIR Server](CapabilityStatement-SHCHostFHIRServerCapabilityStatement.md)
