Representation of Part-Whole Relationships in SNOMED CT
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper we investigate representation of the part-whole relationship in SNOMED CT. We discuss the current approach, based on “SEP” triples, and several translations of it, which involve DLs at different levels of expressivity. We intend that our analysis will concretely inform the SNOMED community about the important tradeoffs of expressivity for their ontology, and help with future decisions about the representation of the SNOMED CT’s anatomical taxonomy.

Background and Aim: Systematized Nomenclature of Medicine systems are the important supportive for electronic health record in registration and retrieval of data. Systematized Nomenclature of Medicine - Clinical Terms (SNOMED CT) is the most comprehensive language and then the consistency of exchanged data across health care providers and finally the high effectiveness of health care. Material...
متن کاملViews of diagnosis distribution in primary care in 2.5 million encounters in Stockholm: a comparison between ICD-10 and SNOMED CT.
BACKGROUND Primary care (PC) in Sweden provides ambulatory and home health care outside hospitals. Within the County Council of Stockholm, coding of diagnoses in PC is mandatory and is done by general practitioners (GPs) using a Swedish primary care version of the International Statistical Classification of Diseases, version 10 (ICD-10). ICD-10 has a mono-hierarchical structure. SNOMED CT is po...
متن کاملDo SNOMED CT Relationships Qualify?
An important feature of SNOMED CT is post-coordination, which is enabled as SNOMED CT specifies refinability of target concepts of relationships. In this paper the use of refinable relationships in SNOMED CT is analysed, and the interplay between refinable and defining relationships. Refinability is used in 10 out of 61 relationships, and the interplay between refinable and defining relationshi...
متن کاملRepresentation of disorders of the newborn infant by SNOMED CT®
SNOMED CT is the most sophisticated reference terminology currently available for the representation of healthcare. An unforeseen consequence of the opportunistic evolutionary process for SNOMED CT may be that some terms for disorders of specialised clinical domains are not represented within the terminology. The SNOMED CT July 2006 release was systematically examined using the CliniClue termin...
متن کاملAuditing the Semantic Completeness of SNOMED CT Using Formal Concept Analysis
Design: We developed a model for formalizing the normal forms of SNOMED CT expressions using FCA. Anonymous nodes, identified through the analyses, were retrieved from the model for evaluation. Two quasiPoisson regression models were developed to test whether anonymous nodes can evaluate the semantic completeness of SNOMED CT contents (Model 1), and for testing whether such completeness differs...
