| - | ==== Combined target structure ==== | ||
| - | To incorporate a new set of drug information, a structure should be achieved that contains every Concept only once and preserves the RxNorm structure, no matter which vocabulary the additional Concept is coming from. This means that for each source drug concept a standard concept that follows RxNorm logic is created and correctly placed inside a hierarchy. In a way, it should create a mixed RxNorm/drug vocabularies union. | ||
| - | |||
| - | In order to achieve this, any two equivalent Concepts have to be matched through its components: Ingredients to Ingredients, Forms to Forms, Supplier to Supplier, etc. Concepts are defined as matching if all components match. For example, a Clinical Drug matches another Clinical Drug if it contains the same Ingredients at the same strength and the same Dose Form. | ||
