  1. Extending Snomed to Include Explanatory Reasoning

    … Systemized Nomenclature of Medicine (SNOMED). The first phase evaluated SNOMED's ability to express explanatory knowledge for clinical pathology. The second developed the Normalized Medical Explanation (NORMEX) syntax for expressing and storing pathways of causal reasoning in the …

  2. Data mining occurrences of infectious diseases with SNOMED CT

    Synonyms within SNOMED CT’s structure give meaning to the clinical terminology. The hypothesis in this thesis is that the number of synonyms of a disease within SNOMED CT can be used to predict the number of occurrences of an infectious disease reported on by the World Health Organization (WHO). …

  3. Structural indicators for effective quality assurance of snomed ct

    … Nomenclature of Medicine -- Clinical Terms (SNOMED CT -- further abbreviated as SCT) has been endorsed as a premier clinical terminology by many national and international organizations. The US Government has chosen SCT to play a significant role in its initiative to promote Electronic Health …

  4. Structural analysis and auditing of SNOMED hierarchies using abstraction networks

    SNOMED is one of the leading healthcare terminologies being used worldwide. Due to its sheer volume and continuing expansion, it is inevitable that errors will make their way into SNOMED. Thus, quality assurance is an important part of its maintenance cycle. A structural approach is presented in …

  5. Extensions of SNOMED taxonomy abstraction networks supporting auditing and complexity analysis

    … Nomenclature of Medicine -- Clinical Terms (SNOMED CT) has been widely used as a standard terminology in various biomedical domains. The enhancement of the quality of SNOMED contributes to the improvement of the medical systems that it supports. In previous work, the Structural Analysis of …

  6. Chromosomenanomalien und multiple systemische Fehlbildungen in SNOMED (Kapitel D 4) und in der ICD 10 (Kapitel XVII) : ein kritischer Vergleich und Vorschläge zu einer deutschen Version

    … In this thesis it could be shown that SNOMED International is a powerful instrument for medical documentation. With SNOMED International it is possible to encode a complete medical history in a way that it could be understood anywhere in the world where SNOMED International is used. To …

  7. Considerations for Automating Salmonella Serovar Identification within an Electronic Public Health Reporting Environment

    … Nomenclature of Medicine-Clinical Terms (SNOMED CT®). Translating the serotype formula of a Salmonella isolate to the correct identifier has been a multistep manual process for users. Our goal was to determine whether a degree of automation could be achieved using an ontology based on K-W. …

    … is on how to enhance the conceptual content of SNOMED CT by methods of semantic harmonization. By 2015, SNOMED will become the standard terminology for EH R encoding of diagnoses and problem lists. In order to enrich the semantics and coverage of SNOMED CT for clinical and research applications, …
