=== Proposal === | === Proposal === | ||
- | ^Field^Required^Type^Description^ | + | This proposal does not involve a change to the CDM schema. |
+ | This is follow up on discussion at Bethesda F2F meeting. It was suggested to do an evaluation of granularity in various procedural terminologies. | ||
- | ---- | + | In the long run (not possible today): The idea is to make all CPT4 codes non standard concepts. (change in OHDSI Vocabulary) |
- | === Use Cases === | + | |
+ | === Background === | ||
+ | A phenotype definition (patient cohort) may include Diagnostic or Medication Code. However, it can also include Procedural code. e.g., patients who had chest X ray done. | ||
+ | Whereas OHDSI is using SNOMED for Diagnoses and LOINC for lab, there is no "international" terminology for procedures. | ||
+ | Some Asian countries mapped their procedure codes to CPT4. However CPT4 requires a license. For new data partners within OHDSI, the license requirement may be troubling. | ||
+ | |||
+ | Possible terminologies may be ICD10PCS or SNOMED (specifically, procedure codes within SNOMED). Snomed does not offer the needed granularity. | ||
+ | |||
+ | ---- | ||
+ | === Use Cases === | ||
+ | Allow procedures to be part of phenotype definitions. |
