Previous Action Items

Y

• Modeling exposures on wounds (organ donors)

  • Nancy reached out to Bob Milius and Joel Schneider - no answer also reached out to UNOS - Maya Webber - have sent explanatory email - Nancy will forward email to Riki and Andrea - she mentions “we collect laboratory data per OPTN specifications”

  • Nancy to follow-up one more time with Bob and Joel

    • Need SCT for liver, kidney potential transplant biopsies - sometimes it is wedge biopsy

    • Do we need SCT code that delineates donor before transplant is in the recipient?

    • There is allowance for donor in pre-coordinated concept in SNOMED

    • Identify donor organs that are transplanted (identify the donor organ before it is transplanted)

      • “Organs that have been successfully transplanted include the heart, kidneys, liver, lungs, pancreas, intestine, thymus and uterus. Tissues include bones, tendons (both referred to as musculoskeletal grafts), cornea, skin, heart valves, nerves and veins” including bone marrow

      • will need additional information, reference material, use case, etc.

      • 105455006 | Donor for medical or surgical procedure (person) - or a descendant that is more appropriate for the speicmen type could be used in SPM-5 as a specimen type modifier when creating a prototype, since we cannot account for every possible organ or tissue type (would have to figure out how to represent that in the CMT)

      • or use specimen hierarchy term that is for the type of donated material - blood / organ / tissue and then require SPM-8?

      • Riki to write up a few examples and bring back next week

• Share CMT one-pager was shared with Sandy Jones - Manjula to do, once we have the updated version (will also have it them for the SCT Expo) - she will need to have it before Oct 6

USCDI v5 comments are due Sep 22!

United States Core Data for Interoperability (USCDI)

• Have call set up with Maria for Monday at noon

Reporting Biomarkers to Cancer registries

National Program of Cancer Registries (NPCR) | CDC

Sandy will put together a one-pager

Specimen CMT - review of terms with questions

• SNOMED Expo

• ComboCytologicalMaterialfromEndocervixEctocervixVaginalFormix

  • specimen with two different body structure/site - how to handle this because only one is supported in HL7 v2? Which body site do we choose?

    • depends on whether you are collecting a biopsy, brush, etc.

    • may need guidelines for where you collect the specimen

      • Nancy to follow up with OB/GYN

• ComboCytologicalMaterialfromEndocervixEctocervixVaginalFormixSlide

  • pap smear sample

  • for SPM-5 should we be using cervical cytology microscopy slide or microscope slide?

    • use the microscope slide - since that doesn’t really change or is there something special about the slide? - Nancy to review

    • come back to review body site

• Pap Testing Liquid Sample

  • need reference to thin prep

  • need to request new term with parent cytology specimen container (physical object) for liquid-based cytology container --Nancy to look this up and ask the new cytologist at CDC

• Pap Testing Liquid Sample - different domain with same questions as above

• Pericardial effusion

  • need a path domain for the term

• Pericardium tissue_biopsy

• added definition

micro domain

• remove ‘biopsy’ from the term

Pericardium tissue_biopsy

• this has a different definition than the term above

• added definition

• micro domain

• check to see if it is in the path domain

• submit as tissue from pericardium, for specimen type comment

• Need more info on retracting pus - most of the articles around pus are patient information -so far have not found articles that indicate that you cannot discern pus from necrosis without microscopy

Specimen CMT - review of terms with questions

• Plasma

  • emove the comment about biologic product - we are not yet addressing that yet

• Heparin_gel tube

  • thsi si the container term: 767390000 |Evacuated blood collection tube with heparin lithium and gel separator (physical object)| - is not modeling the substances of the physical object, so we still need to submit for separatror gel (need to get a link to the manufacturer info) - inert acrylic gel; polymer gel = Nancy to email to Riki

• Scotchtape prep

  • Nancy to get the definition for scoth tape swab from Mike Miller’s book

• Scratchwound

  • exposure type solution - Riki to check with Jim, if he can join a LabMCoP call

• Serum in silicone coated tube

  • chemistry

  • silicone is helping with clotting; could also be on the stopper

• Serum_Clotactivator

  • use the same as the gel for heparin_gel tube

  • need substance for clotactivator, which seems to be silicone particles

  • applies to 2 domains

• nasal sinus fluid definition

  • Nancy to provide

• surgicalInsertionSite_Pacemaker

  • need to digest the other referenced articles for any more text needed for the definition or the comments

  • we also need a new term

    • in SCT there are only swabs for insertion sites (line, drain, chest tube, vascular catherther)

    • we should model it after 435971000124108 | Body fluid specimen from peritoneal dialysis insertion site (specimen)

• Open homework EDTA Stopper top

  • https://phlebotomygeeks.yolasite.com/resources/PRINT OUT COMMON TUBES.pdf

    • but color is manufacturer dependent, whihc is why we named the tubes by the additives

    • there are container types in SNOMED under 706049005 |Blood tube (physical object)|

    • Need to check on completeness against the Anne/Nancy list

    • Have a start here: https://aphlinformatics.atlassian.net/wiki/download/attachments/2018312270/ContainertypesListRikiEmailed20171013.xlsx?api=v2

    • K1 or K2 might be important to differentiate

Specimen CMT - Hosting Options

  N

• How can we publish the content in the dB?

  • Allow access somehow to query the dB

  • as access or excel or csv

  • Using FHIR conceptMap similar to Conceptmap-example-specimen-type - FHIR v6.0.0-cibuild - based on this profile: ConceptMap - FHIR v6.0.0-cibuild

  • riki.merrick to ask Eric if he still has that or how he built it:

  • ANSWER FROM ERIC:

    • if you look in the xml source Conceptmap-example-specimen-type.xml - FHIR v6.0.0-cibuild . you can see how it is mapped. 

    • I am not sure if you mean the table rendering or creating the concept map from a spreadsheet or CSV file.  The FHIR build tool did the table rendering for that mapping, I think I entered the data by hand, or Grahame did it. It would not be hard to create a script to create a concept map from an excel or csv file if needed.  The table needs to be large enough to make it worthwhile though. you could even create formula cells in the spreadsheet to generate the XML or json for each item. and then copy to a text editor and append to the Metadata fields.

Future projects for this call after CMT

  N

• In general the call is intended as a forum for ANY messaging related issues to work out.

• In the past we have

  • reviewed containers re-vive that - and how does that interact with devices (UDI identification?)

  • review code systems around additives (HL70371 and SCT substance and product hierarchies)

  • started work on cross-mapping between HL7 method codes and SNOMED CT procedure / technique concepts

    • American College of Surgeons is working on procedure protocol and synoptic data elements / surgical synoptic reports - we could work with them together on that
