Purpose

An 900000000000521006 $$ Association type reference set $$ represents a set of unordered associations of a particular type between components .

Data structure

An Association reference set is a Component reference set used to represent associations between component . Its structure is shown in the following table.

Table 50. Association reference Set - Data structure

 

 

Field

Data type

Purpose

id

UUID

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.

effectiveTime

Time

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 .

active

Boolean

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.

moduleId

SCTID

Identifies the SNOMED CT module that contains this reference set member as at the specified effectiveTime .
The value must be a subtype of 900000000000443000 $$ Module (core metadata concept) $$ within the metadata hierarchy .

refsetId

SCTID

Identifies the reference set to which this reference set member belongs.
In this case, set to a subtype of 900000000000521006 $$ Association type reference set $$. This indicates the nature of the association between the source and target components .

referencedComponentId

SCTID

The identifier of the source component of the association.

targetComponentId

SCTID

The identifier of the target component of the association.

Metadata

The following metadata in the "Foundation metadata concept " hierarchy supports this reference set :

Notes on usage

Each member of a $$ Historical association $$ reference set represents a Reference from an inactive component to other equivalent or related components that were current in the Release Version in which that component was inactivated.
Each $$ Historical association $$ reference set holds Relationships of a different nature between the components. The |Historical association| reference sets contains associations:

The component identified by the targetComponentId must be an instance of the same class of component as the component identified by the referencedComponentIdfor all |Historical association| reference sets apart from the |REFERS TO concept association reference set |.
Within the |REFERS TO concept association reference set |, the referenced ComponentId field must be a description and the targetComponentIdmust be a concept .
The targetComponentId is used differently in the |MOVED TO association reference set |. In this case, the targetComponentId does not refer directly to a replacement component, but rather to the namespace to which the component was moved to. The targetComponentId actually refers to the concept that represents the namespace. This approach is used since the organization sourcing the component may not always be able to determine the precise reference that is applicable in the receiving organization (namespace). Thus the responsibility for these references lies with the new responsible (receiving) organization .

Descriptor template and examples

The tables below show examples of the descriptors for specific reference sets that follow the 900000000000521006 $$ Association type reference set $$ pattern.

Note: The tables above omit the initial four columns of data present in the release file. These follow the standards versioning pattern id, effectiveTime, active, moduleId. Additionally, to aid understanding, the tables above also show the term from one of the descriptions associated with each of the identified concept. The release file only contains the identifier .
