HPO to SNOMED mapping - the objectives

  1. The objectives was to produce a mapping

...

  1. to a fully logically defined

...

  1. SNOMED target, so that if a direct map to a SNOMED concept was not available, an expression was constructed using Compositional Grammar and post-coordination

...

Mapping - the resources

Post coordination resources

Enclosed are two spreadsheets of the mapping of HPO (Human Phenotype Ontology) to SNOMED.  The first is a list of the complete mappings of 17960 HPO terms, including direct maps and expressions, the second contains just the expressions. These expressions have been authored using the following resources and validated against the April 2024 Release of SNOMED International;

  1. . The map produced would then be used during configuration of healthcare systems or in an expression repository.

Above is an illustration of the structure and components of an expression, including the focus concept, attributes and attribute value.

HPO to SNOMED Cross Mapping - the results

Based on the HPO release of August 2024, and the SNOMED International release of April 2024, the mapping results are given below.

Note that 86% of the HPO terms are mappable either directly (42%) or

by using an expression

...

(7950, 45%) and the missing 13% could potentially be reduced with new SNOMED content.

The expressions have been validated using the Post-coordination Demonstrator resource. (
