Concept Modeling, Attributes and ValuesTrackers: 45 Modeling Review
| This area focuses on the review (or addition) of attributes and the values that can be applied to them. While not a clinical area per se, work in this area supports the defining and quality of content which in turn supports implementations and secondary use. | 2 countries- high, 1 country- medium. | |||||||
Clinical Finding: NeoplasmTrackers: 21 Pattern Review Hierarchy Cleaning Modeling Review
| Naming conventions reviews and improvement of modeling of malignant disorders. | 2 countries- high | UK: As well as a general clean-up, we could suggest the creation of precoordinated cancer >disorders< which are currently expressible only as morphology concepts. (we could provide input in making suggestions on identifying these). | ||||||
Clinical Finding: ObstetricsTrackers: 7 Pattern Review Hierarchy Cleaning Modeling Review | Revision work on abortion concepts and the modeling of antenatal and postnatal content. | 2 countries- high | UK: Disambiguation of therapeutic/iatrogenic abortion versus spontaneous abortion ('miscarriage') would be especially welcome albeit no small task. | ||||||
Procedures/Qualifier Value: PathologyTrackers: 27 Pattern Review Hierarchy Cleaning Modeling Review | Issues include cancer synoptic reporting, hierarchy reviews, specific issues e.g. measurement activity vs. quantity, units of measure, specimens | 2 countries- high | |||||||
Qualifier ValueTrackers: 18 Pattern Review Hierarchy Cleaning Modeling Review | Remodeling related to new attributes and new content. Clarification of meaning of existing content. | 1 country high, 2 countries- medium | Singapore: Better clarification of qualifier values would be beneficial as we use this hierarchy in our drug product concepts rather extensively. Comments: It would be good for us to be updated of the changes made as it might have impact to our Singapore Drug Dictionary. | ||||||
Observable EntityTrackers: 20 Pattern Review Hierarchy Cleaning Modeling Review | Large review of observables and investigation procedures - including modeling but also specific areas such as functioning observation results | 1 country high, 1 country-medium | |||||||
Procedure: Diagnostic ImagingTrackers: 8 Pattern Review Hierarchy Cleaning Modeling Review | Remodeling and naming pattern review of imaging procedures and sub hierarchies such as gastrointestinal imaging, angiographies, Ultrasound scan - obstetric, Radiography vs. X-ray and others | 1 country - high, 1 country - medium | |||||||
Qualifier value: Units of MeasureTrackers: 4 Pattern Review Hierarchy Cleaning Modeling Review | Reviewing of possible duplicated content and remodeling to align to agreed patterns. | 1 country- high, 1- country medium | Singapore: The usage of Qualifier Value: Units of measure is heavily used in our drug product concepts. Better refined UOM would be of good assistance. | ||||||
Situations/ContextTrackers: 23 Pattern Review Hierarchy Cleaning Modeling Review | Reviewing patterns and concept modeling for content such as: No known allergies and other Non-x concepts, Resolved concepts, Seen in clinic, and others. Relocation of concepts from Findings and Procedures that have context. | 1 country- high, 1 country- medium | UK: Reviewing patterns and concept modeling for content such as: ... Seen in clinic, and others. Relocation of concepts from Findings and Procedures that have context. | ||||||
Clinical finding: Diabetes MellitusTrackers: 3 Hierarchy Cleaning Modeling Review | Improvement in Diabetes Mellitus content. | 1 country-high | CRI comment: These trackers have all had some work done on them. | ||||||
Clinical Finding/Event: Mental HealthTrackers: 12 Pattern Review Hierarchy Cleaning Modeling Review | Overall review/update of psychiatry and mental health terminology.

Procedure: Interventions, Plans and GoalsTrackers: 14 Pattern Review Hierarchy Cleaning Modeling Review | Remodeling of sub hierarchies as such as: Care plan, Types of encounter, Screening intent vs. Screening type, Prevention vs. Preventive regime, and others. Better define the meaning of Treatment vs. Therapy, Plans and Regimes and others, and adjust accordingly | 2 countries- medium | Singapore: As part of our Care Plan documentation, it is definitely beneficial if the contents are classified into sub hierachies such as interventions / plans, etc. | ||||||
Procedure: Surgical ProcedureTrackers: 19 Pattern Review Hierarchy Cleaning Modeling Review | Remodeling of Intraoperative concepts, Surgical procedures not subsumed by Surgical procedure concept, Aspiration procedures, Needle biopsies & Fine needle aspiration biopsy procedures, Implantation (procedure) hierarchy . New patterns for Anastomosis from X to Y, Reamputation of <site> and others | 2 countries- medium | Singapore: We are planning to syncronise TOSP (Table of Surgical Procedures) codes with SNOMED. The remodeling of Surgical Procedures may help in our future exercise. | ||||||
Clinical Finding/Observables: Presence and AbsenceTrackers: 8 Pattern Review Hierarchy Cleaning Modeling Review | Issues relating to the presence or absence of a disorder. Links to observables redesign work also. | 1 country- medium | Singapore: We noted the lack of clarity over certain diagnosis (i.e.) ConceptID: 106074003 | Electrocardiogram finding in hypertrophy, infarction AND/OR ischemia (finding) - so is that "And" or "Or"? It would be better if concepts like these are better defined. | ||||||
