Purpose

A 446609009 |Simple type reference set| allows a set ofto be specified for inclusion or exclusion for a specified purpose. This type ofrepresents an extensional definition of a subset of SNOMED CT. Thus it can be used to fully enumerate a subset of,or.

See also, which can be used to represent an intensional definition of a subset of SNOMED CT. In an intensional definition, the members of the subset are specified by rules rather than by enumerations (e.g. all subtypes of a specified).

Reference Set Data Structure

A Simpledoes not have any addition fields.

Field

Data type

Purpose

id (field)

UUID (data type)

A 128 bit unsigned Integer (data type), uniquely identifying this.

Different versions of a reference set member share the same id (field) but have different effectiveTime (field). This allows a reference set member to be modified or made active (field) (i.e. removed from the active set) at a specified time.

effectiveTime (field)

Time (data type)

The inclusive date or time at which this version of the identifiedbecame the current version.

The current version of thisat time T is the version with the most recent effectiveTime (field) prior to or equal to time T .

active (field)

Boolean (data type)

The state of the identifiedas at the specified effectiveTime (field) .

If active (field) = 1 (true) theis part of the current version of the set, if active (field) = 0 (false) theis not part of the current version of the set.

moduleId (field)

SCTID (data type)

Identifies thethat contains thisas at the specified effectiveTime (field) .

The value must be aof 900000000000443000 |Module (core metadata concept)| within the metadata.

refsetId (field)

SCTID (data type)

Identifies theto which thisbelongs.

In this case, set to 900000000000456007 |Reference set descriptor|

referencedComponentId (field)

SCTID (data type)

A reference to theto be included in the.
