Implementing description-logic rules for SNOMED-CT attributes through a table-driven approach
Maintaining a large controlled biomedical vocabulary requires ensuring the content's internal consistency. This is done through rules, specified by the vocabulary's curators, which denote how the vocabulary's concepts should be defined. When individual organizations deploy such vocabularies, local concepts are typically added and linked to concepts in the main vocabulary: the process of maintai...
متن کاملSubsumptive reflection in SNOMED CT: a large description logic-based terminology for diagnosis
Description logic (DL) based biomedical terminology (SNOMED CT) is used routinely in medical practice. However, diagnostic inference using such terminology is precluded by its complexity. Here we propose a model that simplifies these inferential components. We propose three concepts that classify clinical features and examined their effect on inference using SNOMED CT. We used PAIRS (Physician ...

متن کاملSNOMED CT module-driven clinical archetype management
OBJECTIVE To explore semantic search to improve management and user navigation in clinical archetype repositories. METHODS In order to support semantic searches across archetypes, an automated method based on SNOMED CT modularization is implemented to transform clinical archetypes into SNOMED CT extracts. Concurrently, query terms are converted into SNOMED CT concepts using the search engine ...
متن کاملImplementing rules to improve the quality of concept post-coordination with SNOMED CT
The use of SNOMED CT as a standard reference terminology enables interoperability between clinical systems. This reference tool provides a method for creating post-coordinated terms by users according to local needs. While the creation of these terms is free, there are a number of rules, as defined in the user manual of SNOMED CT that must be followed.The Hospital Italiano of Buenos Aires has a...
