| === 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. | ||
