Purpose

An 

Concept
t723592007|MRCM attribute range reference set|
 allows attributes to be associated with a valid value range for a given SNOMED CT content type and rule strength. The range of each attribute is defined using an Expression Constraint. This expression constraint represents the set of concepts, expressions, or concrete values that may be used as the value of the given attribute.

...


The 

Concept
t723592007|MRCM attribute range reference set|
ShowFormatinline
also provides a summary of the concept model rule associated with each attribute (including all valid domains and the given range) using an Expression Constraint representation. This attribute rule can be completely auto-generated by combining information from the 
Concept
t723604009|MRCM attribute domain reference set|
ShowFormatinline
and the 
Concept
t723592007|MRCM attribute range reference set|

Data Structure

An 

Concept
t723592007|MRCM attribute range reference set|
 is structured as shown in the following table.

...

Field

Data type

...

Purpose

...

Mutable

...

id

...

Specref
RefType(data type)
tUUID

...

A 128 bit unsigned integer, uniquely identifying this reference set member.
Different versions of a reference set member share the same id but have different effectiveTimes. This allows a reference set member to be modified or made inactive (i.e. removed from the active set) at a specified time.

...

NO

...

effectiveTime

...

Specref
RefType(data type)
tTime

...

The inclusive date or time at which this version of the identified reference set member became the current version.
The current version of this reference set member at time T is the version with the most recent effectiveTime prior to or equal to time T.

...

YES

...

YES (Full)

Optional (Snapshot) 

...

active

...

Specref
RefType(data type)
tBoolean

...

The state of the identified reference set member as at the specified effectiveTime.
If active=1 (true) the reference set member is part of the current version of the set, if active=0 (false) the reference set member is not part of the current version of the set.

...

YES

...

moduleId

...

Specref
RefType(data type)
tSCTID

Identifies the SNOMED CT module that contains this reference set member as at the specified effectiveTime.

Para filter

The value must be a subtype of

within the metadata hierarchy.

...

YES

...

refsetId

...

Specref
RefType(data type)
tSCTID

...

Identifies the reference set to which this reference set member belongs.
In this case, set to a subtype of

Concept

...

NO

...

referenced ComponentId

...

Specref
RefType(data type)
tSCTID

...

A reference to the SNOMED CT attribute concept to which the range defined by this member applies.

...

NO

...

rangeConstraint

...

Specref
RefTypedata type
tstring

An expression constraint, which defines the set of concepts that may be used as the value of the given attribute (identified by referencedComponentId).

This string can be parsed using the ABNF syntax defined for the  Expression Constraint Language .

If ranges using concrete values are required, the Expression Constraint Language can be extended with the keyword "TYPE", by replacing the simpleExpressionConstraint rule with the following two rules: 

simpleExpressionConstraint  = [constraintOperator ws] eclFocusConcept / typeKeyword ws conceptReference
typeKeyword = ("t"/"T") ("y"/"Y") ("p"/"P") ("e"/"E")

For example, the following range includes the set of all integers:

Concept
t TYPE 900000000000476001 |Integer|
ShowFormatinline

Para filter

Any descendant of

Concept
t900000000000459000 |Attribute type|

may be used as the type of an attribute range.

...

Specref
RefTypedata type
tstring

...

An Expression Constraint that captures the domain, range and cardinality constraints for the given attribute, rule strength and content type.
This string can be parsed using the ABNF syntax defined for the  Expression Constraint Language .
If ranges with concrete values are required, the Expression Constraint Language can be extended as described above (for rangeConstraint).

...

YES

Specref

A subtype of

which specifies whether the given rule is mandatory (resulting in an error) or optional (resulting in a warning).

...

YES

...

contentTypeId

...

Specref
RefType(data type)
tSCTID

...

A subtype of

Concept
t723574004|Content type|

which indicates the type of SNOMED CT content over which this rule applies.

        hierarchy is designed using 'universal restriction' logic. The hierarchy may therefore appear to be 'upside down'. However, it was designed in this way because if an MRCM rule applies to
        Concept

        then it also applies to the Content Types that are a supertype of this - including
