The objective of Member Annotation Type Reference Sets is to enhance comprehension and implementation by offering supplementary information that aids in the interpretation and utilization of reference set members. These annotations are optional but highly beneficial, offering insights into the purpose, relevance, or specific usage scenarios of individual reference set members. For instance, these annotations might include notes about how a particular member should be used, clarifications on its scope, or any other pertinent details that facilitate effective utilization within diverse healthcare settings.
Example Use Cases
One significant use case for the
pertains to the representation and management of change notes related to content changes. Concept t | Member Annotation Type Reference Set|
In SNOMED CT, a single concept might possess multiple axioms, which represent logical statements defining relationships between concepts. These axioms are represented as members of the OWL Axiom reference set.
By using change notes, content authors can add comments or explanations to each axiom, helping to explain why changes were made or providing additional context about the relationships defined by these axioms. This annotation method assists in keeping track of modifications, offering insights into the reasons behind changes, and aiding in understanding the logical structure of SNOMED CT concepts.

| In the third International Consensus Definitions for Sepsis and Septic Shock (Sepsis-3) published in 2016, the new definition eliminated the requirement for the presence of systemic inflammatory response syndrome (SIRS) to define sepsis. The sepsis is now logically defined as Organ dysfunction syndrome (disorder) with pathological process of disregulated host response due to infectious disease. |
