Content and Modeling

  • Main hierarchies
    • Terminology for nutrition assessment is predominantly from the Observable Entities hierarchy and includes questions relating to client and food/nutrition-related history, anthropometric measurements, biomedical tests and assessment tools.
  • Key attributes and value ranges
    •  A range of attributes are available to represent the properties for concepts in this hierarchy (Observable Entity Defining Attributes); however, the key attributes that are used for content in the scope of nutrition assessment and reassessment include:
      • Technique: This attribute links to a concept from the Technique (qualifier value) hierarchy and specifies the observation method, e.g., estimation, measurement.
      • Property: This attribute links to a concept from the Property (qualifier value)| hierarchy and specifies the type of feature to be observed, e.g., intake quantity, energy intake.
      • Characterizes: This attribute links to a concept from the Introduction procedure (procedure) hierarchy and specifies the process associated with intake quantity or energy intake, e.g. administration via gastrointestinal route.
      • Please view the examples below illustrating the modeling of these concepts.
  • Templates

                     These templates ensure that nutrition diagnosis concepts are modeled in a clear, consistent, and clinically relevant manner, supporting effective documentation and interoperability in healthcare settings.
