## Datatype Profiles

| Responsible Owner: [\[%wgt fhir%\]]([%wg fhir%]) Work Group | [Standards Status](versions#std-process):[Informative](versions#std-process) |
| --- | --- |

This page lists profiles defined in this specification itself for the datatypes. For background information, see [Profiling Resources](profiling#resources). Additional profiles may be found in published [Implementation Guides](https://www.fhir.org/guides/registry/), or in the [Conformance resource registry](http://registry.fhir.org).
