  12. 12. ICD-11 Revision Goals 1. Evolve a multi-purpose and coherent classification – Mortality, morbidity, primary care, clinical care, research, public health… – Consistency & interoperability across different uses 2. Serve as an international and multilingual reference standard for scientific comparability and communication purposes 3. Ensure that ICD-11 will function in an electronic environment. • ICD-11 will be a digital product • Support electronic health records and information systems • Link ICD logically to underpinning terminologies and ontologies (e.g. SNOMED, GO, …) • ICD Categories “defined” by "logical operational rules" on their associations and details
  13. 13. • Essential for EHR • Enhance Care • Decision Support • Safety & Quality • Better Collaboration • Monitoring & Evaluation • Better Health Information • Less Administration

  18. 18. What is “NOntology” ? Ontology (philosophy) the Organization of Reality  !!!  Ontology (computer science) – the explicit – operational description of the conceptualization of a domain • Entities • Atributes • Values • An ontology defines: – a common vocabulary – a shared understanding/exchange: • among people • among software agents • between people and software – to reuse data - information – to introduce standards to allow interoperability
  19. 19. THE CONTENT MODEL Any Category in ICD is represented by: 1. ICD Concept Title 1.1. Fully Specified Name 2. Classification Properties 2.1. Parents 2.2 Type 2.3. Use and Linearization(s) 3. Textual Definition(s) 4. Terms 4.1. Base Index Terms 4.2. Inclusion Terms 4.3. Exclusions 5. Body Structure Description 5.1. Body System(s) 5.2. Body Part(s) [Anatomical Site(s)] 5.3. Morphological Properties 6. Manifestation Properties 6.1. Signs & Symptoms 6.2. Investigation findings 7. Causal Properties 7.1. Etiology Type 7.2. Causal Properties - Agents 7.3. Causal Properties - Causal Mechanisms 7.4. Genomic Linkages 7.5. Risk Factors 8. Temporal Properties 8.1. Age of Occurrence & Occurrence Frequency 8.2. Development Course/Stage 9. Severity of Subtypes Properties 10. Functioning Properties 10.1. Impact on Activities and Participation 10.2. Contextual factors 10.3. Body functions 11.

  20. 20. The ICD Foundation Component • is a collection of ALL ICD entities like diseases, disorders... • It represents the whole ICD universe. • In a simple way, the foundation component is similar to a “store” of books or songs. • From these elements we build a selection as a linearization. • This analogy may however be misleading because there are many links between the ICD entities (like parent-child relations and other). • The ICD entities in the Foundation Component: • are not necessarily mutually exclusive • allow multiple parenting ( i. e. an entity may be in more than one branch, for example tuberculosis meningitis is both an infection and a brain disease)
  21. 21. The ICD Linearizations • A linearization is a subset of the foundation component, that is: • Fit for a particular purpose: reporting mortality, morbidity, or other uses • Jointly Exhaustive of ICD Universe (Foundation Component) • Composed of entities that are Mutually Exclusive of each other • Each entity is given a single parent
  22. 22. 23 Foundation: ICD categories with - Definitions, synonyms - Clinical descriptions - Diagnostic criteria - Causal mechanism - Functional Properties Find Term SNOMED-CT, International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health (ICF)… Linearizations Morbidity Mortality Primary Care
  23. 23. • Open and Collaborative Platform – Web based – Like WIKIPEDIA • But – by the Content Model • with – by the TAGs , and scientific peers

  30. 30. Why work together? – WHO & IHTSDO – Coverage & Adequacy – Quality – Reliability - Utility – MultiLingual Applicability – Interoperability – Sustainability – Member States: Enable health care delivery and compile health information SNOMED & WHO Classifications are synergistic and not antagonistic
  31. 31. The «Common Ontology» Purpose • To provide a common formal knowledge representation structure to enable interoperability between: – ICD-11 and SNOMED CT. – a shared semantics
  32. 32. Ultimate “Turing-like” Test  If common ontology achieved
