OVERVIEW

This page is used to organize CRG work on clinical findings and observable entities related to clinical findings and disorders in which a person experiences physical symptoms for which no known medical explanation can be found.

RELEVANT SNOMED CONCEPT HIERARCHIES

  • Somatoform disorder (disorder)
  • Dissociative neurological symptom disorder (disorder)
  • Psychophysiologic disorder (finding)
  • Disturbance of perception associated with conversion and dissociative phenomenon (finding)
  • Hysterical simulation of disease (finding)

PROJECT MILESTONES AND STATUS

IDObjectiveAction Item
1Define scope of work
  •  Identify the major concept(s) around which to organize a manageable project (scope of work) (artifact: mabh-crg concept plan)
  •  Complete the major concept table and iteratively update as project progresses (CRG to finalize the definition for SNOMED once all research has been completed) 
2Understand uses cases
  •  Identify any non-standard use cases or pain points in research domain  (artifact: mabh-crg use case document)
  •  Identify any non-standard use cases or pain points in clinical domain  (artifact: mabh-crg use case document)
3Understand major conceptualizations of the concept
  •  Perform environmental scan to identify major theoretical models of construct/concept domain (artifact: mabh-crg theoretical model document)
  •  Perform environmental scan to identify disorders and clinical variables relevant to the concept domain  (artifact: mabh-crg clinical model document)
  •  Perform environmental scan to identify existing explicit representations of concepts in the domain in terminologies (nomenclatures, nosologies, classification systems, controlled vocabularies, and ontologies) (artifact: mabh-crg umls analysis matrix, mabh-crg terminology matrix)
4Establish contact with key stakeholders and other potential project contributors
  •  Perform and environmental scan to Identify key stakeholders in the basic research, clinical research, clinical practice, and patient advocacy domain (artifact: mabh-crg stakeholder document)
  •  Create and implement a plan for engaging stakeholders willing to participate in the CRG for the duration of the specific concept review, either on calls or via discussion forum, or to provide the following:
    •  Stakeholder experience related to specific pain points or use cases in the domain
    •  Copies or screenshots of note templates, clinical notes, flowsheets, order sets, research protocols, other (question)
5Understand how concepts in the domain are currently represented in SNOMED
  •  Review concepts in observable entity hierarchy
    •  Create dot diagram of current state
    •  Create observable entity spreadsheet
  •  Review concepts in clinical finding hierarchy
    •  Create dot diagram of current state
    •  Create observable entity spreadsheet
6Perform gap analysis 
  •  Analyze concepts in observable entity hierarchy
    •  Create observable entity spreadsheet
    •  Create dot diagram of current state
    •  Perform review of dot diagram to identify potential duplicate, outdated, missing or inaccurately modeled concepts
    •  Update spreadsheet with changes including all defining relationships
  •  Analyze concepts in clinical finding hierarchy
    •  Create observable entity spreadsheet
    •  Create dot diagram of current state
    •  Perform review of dot diagram to identify potential duplicate, outdated, missing or inaccurately modeled concepts
    •  Update spreadsheet with additions or changes to concepts, including all defining relationships
  •  Identify missing concepts in other hierarchies (e.g., qualifier value, body structure) required to completely and accurately model observable entity and clinical finding concepts
  •  Create explicit, narrative definitions for all concepts
7Create new and modify existing concepts in SNOMED
  •  Submit request for changes through CRS system or via template worksheet
8Disseminate information about changes to SNOMED for concepts in the domain
  •  (question)
