Discussion items

Item	Description	Owner	Notes	Action
1	Call to order and role call	Jim Case	Start recording!
2	Conflicts of interest	Jim Case	None.
3	Approval of minutes from April 2019 Business meeting Agenda changes	Jim Case	Edited transcript is located here	Approval of minutes Agenda change approved
4	Diet findings vs. Diet regimes	Jim Case Jeremy Rogers	A proposal to replace many of the diet finding terms (e.g. high fat diet) with regime/therapy concepts has run into an obstacle with the current usage within the UKTC where these terms originated. In consultation with the UKTC, it has been proposed that we: continue with the addition of valid diet regimes (current diet findings are being reviewed for validity inactivate and replace diet findings with more precise terming (e.g. Follows X diet regime (finding)) to allow for graceful evolution and traceability
	Evaluation procedures vs. Observable entity	Daniel Karlsson	Propose way forward to address the apparent duplication between these two hierarchies: How to handle panels/batteries Order vs. result
	Technique hierarchy issues	Daniel Karlsson	Evaluation procedures with an observation technique (e.g. ELISA) are often primitives with a few distinct techniques in the 129264002 \| Action (qualifier value) \| hierarchy (particularly the Imaging – actions). Observable entity has a technique attribute whereas evaluation procedures have none (with an overlap with some actions). Moving eval procedures to observables would possibly require being explicit about the technique.
	Flap procedure, transplantation, grafting	Jim Case
5	Additional description types	Jim Case	As discussed in KL. Need a list of proposed description types to send to tech services for implementation. Guidance on use will need to be developed. Current use cases to consider are: near synonyms - these can be either "broader than" terms or non-semantically equivalent, but related terms (e.g. vaccination (procedure) vs. immunization (a process following vaccination or administration of immunoglobulin) hypernyms search terms - colloquial terms "Patient-friendly" or consumer terminology abbreviations/truncations Issues within our current synonyms was identified in an AMIA paper in 2003: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC1480077/pdf/amia2003_0949.pdf
6	ECE Update	Bruce Goldberg	Injury model Proposed model for injuries that are unspecified as to being traumatic or nontraumatic and can be either Revisit complication model for disorders due to procedures
7	Concept inactivation project group	Paul Amos
