Injuries - continued

@Bruce Goldberg

  • Modeling traumatic injuries when morphology is not a subtype of damage

  • Modeling accidental injuries

Model for injuries

  • Associated morphology = << 37782003 |Damage (morphologic abnormality)|

  • Add additional morphologies under 37782003 |Damage (morphologic abnormality)|as required

Model for Traumatic injuries

  • Due to 773760007 |Traumatic event (event)|

  • Retire traumatic morphologies (<<19130008 |Traumatic abnormality (morphologic abnormality)|)and replace with unspecified morphologies

Model for Nontraumatic injuries

  • Due to 789750003 |Spontaneous event (event)|

  • Replace nontraumatic and spontaneous morphologies with unspecified morphologies and move under 37782003 |Damage (morphologic abnormality)|if not already a subtype

After inactivating traumatic X (morphologic abnormality)| if X (morphologic abnormality)|is no longer considered a kind of damage, then model traumatic X injuries using 2 role groups, one containing Damage (morphologic abnormality)|and the other containing X (morphologic abnormality)|

Accidental injuries

  • Not all accidental events are due to traumatic events.

  • Distinction between accidental as meaning unintended occurrence and accident as in ICD-10 meaning an external cause of injury

  • Alternate model due to accidental event +during accidental event

Complications of procedure

@Bruce Goldberg , @Jim Case

  • Re-examination utility of adding a complication parent to disorders due to procedures

See grid for proposed modeling of Disorder combinations including disorders related to procedures

20200205 Disorder Combination grid_2BJG.xlsx

Reconsider fetal-maternal modeling

@Phil Brown

  • Need to re-review @Phil Brown's previous proposal for agreement on how to proceed

  • The Netherlands are having translation issues with concepts that could be considered either fetal or maternal findings/disorders (and also affecting the Situation hierarchy). The SCT to ICD-10 map also has inconsistencies. There are trackers:

    An example given was 199549009 |Fetus with drug damage - delivered (disorder)|. They're asking if the concepts say 'delivered,' does this mean it's a concept for the mother's record? Otherwise, if a fetus is delivered, then it is no longer a fetus; however, it's a child of 70591005 |Fetal disorder (disorder)|.

    I think I remember Australia having recent issues with this as well. Is this on an upcoming work plan? ECE? I don't see anything in the Ed Guide regarding subject of record in this context?

    • Response from @Phil Brown -

      In relation to the concept Fetus with drug damage - delivered - I suspect it originates or relates to O35.5 (I didn’t have access to the cross references I think on the SCT browser)

      Maternal care for (suspected) damage to fetus by drugs

       But I think it means that the drug damage occurred whilst the delivered neonate was intra-uterine i.e. a fetus; 

      So the concept probably means Disorder of neonate Due to Drug damage to foetus

See below for revised presentation from @Phil Brown

  • Tabled for future call
