Title: Mapping Wound Assessment Data Elements in SNOMED CT. Author: Block L, Handfield S. Journal: Stud Health Technol Inform; 2016; 225():1078-9. PubMed ID: 27332492. Abstract: The use of standardized terminologies is an essential component to support interoperability in electronic health records. In British Columbia, Canada, a commonly used nursing wound assessment template was mapped to SNOMED CT. Preliminary results have found that 50.8% of the wound assessment data elements had direct matches to concepts within SNOMED CT. Results of this mapping activity have produced a set of mapped wound assessment parameters to SNOMED CT.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
