Introduction
In order to develop guidance the guidelines in the following section, an environmental scan was conducted of different use case involving the use of SNOMED CT and/or LOINC
...
- Practical clinical scenarios in which SNOMED CT and/or LOINC are currently used:
- Bio-surveillance (animal/human health) networks.
- Clinical laboratory reporting (mostly Microbiology area).
- Infectious diseases for lab order entries.
- Healthcare information standards, that require or enable the use of SNOMED CT and/or LOINC.
