Logic

If only the ingredient(s) present, construct a Medicinal Product, OR

If form is also present, construct a Medicinal Product Form, OR

If amount is also present construct a Clinical Drug

Construct one role group in the template per ingredient object.

Assertion:  Cannot have an amount without form.

Assertion:  Cannot have numerator value without denominator value, although this may be "per 1 tablet"

Ignore any non-active ingredients - not part of SNOMED Drug Model.


Issues

  • Does not allow for amounts being based on the Basis of Substance Strength (BoSS).  Might be better to leave this attribute out, to avoid errors in subsumption calculation.
  • Will we have to create a map for the unit of presentation from the dose form?
  • SNOMED CT is still using "concepts as numbers" which we'd have to map to.
  • ingredient.amount.numerator.unit is a string.   We'll have to map to the SNOMED CT code from there, if "code" is not supplied.   Check system = snomed if code is supplied.

  • Still waiting for finalization of "Ingredient Count" attribute.

  • We'd want to normalize the amount using >1000 <1 rules eg 1500mg → 1.5g   and 0.05 g → 50mg.
  • No current SNOMED model for the "amount" which sits above the ingredient eg I want 5ml of 250mg/10ml     We have no representation for the 5ml, only the concentration.
