Substance

Base

yes

n/a

Example:

  • 295184007 |Morphine overdose (disorder)|

Substance

Modification

yes

yes

Concepts representing substance modifications are exceptions and may be included if the overdose profile is significantly different from the substance base.

Exception examples:

  • Liposome or lipid complex substances (e.g. 412088006 |Amphotericin B liposome (substance)|, 426490000 |Vincristine liposome (substance)|)

  • Pegylated substance (e.g. 385544005 |Pegfilgrastim (substance)|, 770965008 |Pegvaliase (substance)|)

  • Salt forms (e.g. 273948005 |Chloral hydrate (substance)|, 396063006 |Fluphenazine decanoate (substance)|)

Example:

  • 296136008 |Chloral hydrate overdose (disorder)|

  • 296213007 |Fluphenazine decanoate overdose (disorder)|

Substance

Disposition grouper

yes

n/a

Overdose concepts representing a disposition grouper should be modeled using a Causative agent that is a descendant of 105590001 |Substance (substance)|.

Example:

  • 297053006 |Overdose of angiotensin-converting-enzyme inhibitors (disorder)|

  • 296515004 |Opiate antagonist overdose (disorder)|

Substance

Role grouper

yes

n/a

Overdose concepts representing a role grouper should be modeled using a Causative agent that is a descendant of 105590001 |Substance (substance)|. Role groupers will be transitioned to the 763158003 |Medicinal product (product)| hierarchy in a future release.

Example:

  • 297006008 |Diuretic overdose (disorder)|

  • 295217003 |Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory overdose (disorder)|

Substance

Structure grouper

yes

n/a

Overdose concepts representing a structure grouper should be modeled using a Causative agent that is a descendant of 105590001 |Substance (substance)|.

Example:

  • 295188005 |Pethidine analog overdose (disorder)|

  • 1155996000 |Phenothiazine and/or phenothiazine derivative overdose (disorder)|
