The Nutrition Clinical Reference Group has asked the Nursing Clinical Reference Group to provide input on SNOMED CT Procedure Hierarchy concepts regarding goal setting.  We ask you to review the information below and provide input at our March meeting to assist the Nutrition CRG in clarifying the identified concepts.

Erica and I will add this topic to the agenda for discussion on our upcoming call on March 8.


Presently, 391892008 |Goal directed therapy (regime/therapy)|is a child of psychotherapy, but the SNOMED CT Editor determined the origin and confirmed it is incorrectly modeled as a subtype of psychotherapy. In fact, it was originally used by Anesthesia. Discussions with the Anesthesia group clarified that the concept is not useful to them.


This presents an opportunity to clarify this regime/therapy Goal directed therapy concept (and its child 386367000 |Mutual goal setting (regime/therapy)|) by remodeling them. Another child concept, 386429002 |Self-modification assistance (regime/therapy)|, requires further clarification.  The Mental Health CRG and the Anesthesia CRG will be consulted as well to learn more about this concept. The Nursing Clinical Reference group is asked to provide input on this topic.


When working to define 441271000124102 |Counseling about nutrition using goal setting strategy (regime/therapy)| the Nutrition CRG came across 391892008 |Goal directed therapy (regime/therapy)|. Based on the concept model for Procedure, the SNOMED CT Editorial Guide permits use of an attribute, 363702006 |Has focus (attribute)| with a range of <<  404684003 |Clinical finding (finding)|  OR  <<  71388002 |Procedure (procedure)| for Procedure and Regime/Therapy concepts.

New Pain Assessment Page

Hi All,

We hope you get a chance to check out our new Pain assessment page! There you will find files with information and pain quality terms for February’s Nursing CRG call discussion. If you have any information about Pain quality to share ahead of our Feb 8th call, feel free to post your files there as well.

Cheers!

Christine and Erica

Hi All,

First we would like to thank everyone for joining our call yesterday and for providing constructive feedback. February's discussion will continue with the Pain assessment value set, starting with pain quality. Next week we will be creating a new page for Pain related material and information in preparation for our discussions. There we will also gather information from the group  about clinical documentation of pain in your countries and or organizations. For example:

  • common pain quality terminology 
  • common pain assessment scales
  • recommendations and requirements on assessing and documenting pain

Unfortunately we will need to put our NANDA-I terms for discussion on hold. SNOMED International will be reaching out to NANDA-I and get back to us with further information.

We look forward to seeing you all next month and look out for an update next week!
