    Description

      Currently, the webclient seems to only support either:
      * flagstouse: A
      * flagstouse: HL

      with no mixing between sets.

      LOINC and HL7 support a much larger set:

      User-defined Table 0078 - Abnormal flags
      Value Description
      L Below low normal
      H Above high normal
      LL Below lower panic limits
      HH Above upper panic limits
      < Below absolute low-off instrument scale
      > Above absolute high-off instrument scale
      N Normal (applies to non-numeric results)
      A Abnormal (applies to non-numeric results)
      AA Very abnormal (applies to non-numeric units, analogous to panic limits for numeric
      units)
      U Significant change up
      D Significant change down
      B Better--use when direction not relevant
      W Worse--use when direction not relevant
      S Susceptible. Indicates for microbiology susceptibilities only.
      R Resistant. Indicates for microbiology susceptibilities only.
      I Intermediate. Indicates for microbiology susceptibilities only.
      MS Moderately susceptible. Indicates for microbiology susceptibilities only.
      VS Very susceptible. Indicates for microbiology susceptibilities only

      It would be nice to be able to make these as queryable flags as well.
