Hi Steven,
I see
336602003 | Oxygen mask (physical object) |
with many children (below.)
I believe "simple face mask" would be a synonym of "Rebreathing oxygen face mask" which isn't even a real phrase anyone uses. We could change the FSN of that concept to be "simple oxygen face mask" and make the original FSN a synonym.
I am not familiar with SABTE. I looked at (Online Browsing Platform (OBP) (iso.org)) and most the hits for SABTE come from ISO 11073 which is for personal devices that communicate with CPAP machines. SABTE sounds like a generic term that include SNOMED term "706226000 | Continuous positive airway pressure/Bilevel positive airway pressure mask (physical object) |" and its children. Should SABTE be a synonym of 706226000?
Thanks Patrick,
That's very helpful
I would never had thought to look for a rebreathing oxygen face mask, I agree with your suggestion to change the FSN of that concept to be "simple oxygen face mask" and make the original FSN a synonym.
From the ISO Sleep Apnea standard
sleep apnoea breathing therapy equipment
ME equipment delivering a therapeutic breathing pressure to the patient intended to treat obstructive sleep apnoea by keeping the upper airways open
Note 1 to entry: Sleep apnoea breathing therapy equipment is primarily used in the home healthcare environment by a lay operator without direct professional supervision.
Also known as SABTE. We are just starting an amendment to ISO 4135 and the above definition will go in the amendment
I couldn't find a SNOMED term for the machine itself
