  • TRUU Lab

  • LOINC

Specimen CMT - review of terms with questions

• Tissue_Duodenum

  • added micro term

• EarSwab

  • needs link to procedure - an’t find anytihgn on google, so ignore

• EndometriumSwab

  • add pathology term

• Specimen rom Endometrium

  • need to make sure we have all the MAP_TO tems

• Jejunal Tissue_Biopsy

  • there are a few ways

    • endoscopy

    • surgical procedure

    • Crosby Capsule

    • so no specific procedure to link to, but have link for

• Lymphnode should not have “lymph”e”

• nail

  • for micro usually only use nail scrapings, so shcne PHLIPPReferred name and use the pre-ccodrinfate SCT term

• FallopianTubeCytologicalMaterial

  • check for corresponding term - not sure where outside of pathoogy this would be needed

• FetalCytologicMaterial

  • check for corresponding term - not sure where outside of pathoogy this would be needed

• PeritonealDialystate

  • no need to change the SCT FSN

• Plasma_SodiumFloride_Potassium_EDTA

  • should be fully defined

• Plasma_SodiumFloride_EDTA

  • should be fully defined

• RectalSwab

  • ned to pull out the definiton and collection description from the listed reference

• HeartValveTissue

  • add pathology term

• Tonsil

  • Ask Nancy

• CleanCatchMidvoidUrine

  • update to SNOMED FSN

• CystFluid_Nodule

  • ask Nancy why this is discouraged

• AbscessAspirate has duplicate

  • use wound grouper

  • Also use wound grouper terms defintion

• BiteWound has a lot of duplicates

  • this is because of the different “subjects who inflicted the bite”

  • don’t use the human bite definition

  • should be from SCT descendents under: 782161000 | Bite (event) |

  • https://www.health.mil/Reference-Center/Publications/2019/11/01/Animal-Bites seems like using 2023 ICD-10-CM Diagnosis Code (Z20.3 as example)

  • Riki to email JOhn and Jim for input

Future projects for this call after CMT

not discussed

• 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
