Kent Spackman RodriguesmedinfopanelII

Why Work Together?  WHO classifications are used to capture snapshots of population health and to provide insight on trends  Often these aggregate data are derived from patient records that are increasingly held in electronic health records using SNOMED CT  We are working to make it easier to use them together

Goals of linking SNOMED CT and ICD  Record data once at the point of care  With fidelity to the clinical situation  At the clinical level of granularity and (un)certainty  Re-use the coded EHR data for  Automated decision support  Mapping to classifications  Epidemiologic purposes  Health system management  Billing  Avoid duplicate effort of double-coding  Avoid (as much as possible) skewing of clinical data for billing purposes 5

Why work together?  Avoidance of duplication of work and of public funding  IHTSDO (SNOMED) will require high-level nodes that aggregate more granular data  Use-cases include mutually exclusive, exhaustive,…  Sounds a lot like ICD  ICD-11 will require lower level terminology for aggregation logic definitions  Detailed terminological underpinning  Sounds a lot like SNOMED Reference: Christopher G. Chute, MD DrPH

Why work together?  Organizational benefits [‘win-win-win’]  WHO: Broaden scope of classification eg ICD 11 has potentially up to six views (linearizations) [use case specific classification]  IHTSDO: Enables the construction of these broadened scope views (linearizations) through SNOMED CT  Individual countries: Can achieve broadened and novel classification implementation and not disrupt patient care through the use of both standards SNOMED & WHO Classifications are synergistic and not antagonistic

Why work together?  Better national and international decision making  Linkages between SNOMED CT and ICD are international not local or national  Linkages between SNOMED CT and ICD are more mechanized [so transcription errors are avoided]  National classification data is produced in a more timely way direct from the patient record  Clear separation between clinical coding for individual patient care using SNOMED CT and classification coding for various statistical analyses using ICD

Terminology, classification and ontology  Aren’t they all basically the same? NO  Classification:  Exhaustive, mutually exclusive categories; double counting is bad; residual categories meaningful  Epidemiology, statistics & billing use cases (better than terminology or ontology alone)  Terminology  Anything to be stated about the patient; double counting is good; residual categories meaningless  Electronic health record and decision support use cases (better than classification or ontology alone)  Ontology  Formal definitions; no ambiguity; no unintentional vagueness  Defining meaning and cross-discipline interoperability (better than classification or terminology alone) 9

Do we need a common ontology?  Re-phrased to avoid ambiguity of ‘ontology’:  Do we need a common representation of meaning?  Obviously, yes. 10

We need a common representation of meaning  To achieve our goals, we need systems to interoperate by meaning  Not by surface forms (terms)  To interoperate by meaning, we need clear definitions  Clarify difficult and subtle meaning variations  anemia vs low hemoglobin vs genetic propensity to anemia  Pulmonary stenosis vs the class of all disorders with pulmonary stenosis as a necessary component  (an) aspirin vs (some) aspirin vs ASA molecule 11

ICD11/SNOMED “Shared Layer” vs Common Ontology Classification ↔ Terminology dissonance Focus on higher levels of abstraction Thesaurus ↔ Description Logic dissonance Pragmatic hierarchies – parent-child Formal logic where all is-a are always true Common Ontology is: Based on Description Logics and “queries” Provides a shared scaffolding for The Foundation Layer of ICD 11 and SNOMED Ignores residual categories of linearizations RodriguesmedinfopanelII

SNOMED CT Common Ontology Subset ICD 11 Revision Architecture Multi-layer system Foundation Component ( Clinical knowledge: signs, symptoms, causes, … + …. Ontology Component (kinds / class definitions) MortalityMorbidtyPrimary Care … Linearizations RodriguesmedinfopanelII

SNOMED CT Common Ontology Subset ICD 11 Revision Architecture: Linkage Ontology Component (kinds) Linearizations Linkage entity linking to query against Ontology Component/Common Ontology SNOMED CT Common Ontology Subset Foundation Component … + Links via queries Ontology Component (kinds) Morbidity … … Linearization code SELECT ?X WHERE {?X subclassOf A & not (?X subclassOf B)} RodriguesmedinfopanelII

Alignment of hierarchies (i) each class in the ICD-11 ontology core of the Foundation Component (FC) has to correspond to exactly one class in SNOMED CT (ii) the set of all parents (transitive closure of Is_a relations )in Common Ontology must be included in the transitive closure of Is_a relations in SNOMED CT. (iii), the equivalence in meaning between aligned classes, as understood by users, will be assured by having common text definitions and descriptions, in addition to the formal axioms in description logic. RodriguesmedinfopanelII

FC non in CO FC - Headers that aggregate entities of vocabulary, typically using plurals (“Diseases of…”) - Fine-grained parts of ICD, more specific than SNOMED CT - Exclusion statements, only to be interpreted in linearizations - Non Otherwise Specified - Non-ontological content (signs, symptoms, diagnostic criteria) RodriguesmedinfopanelII

Objectives Common Ontology plus query on clinical SNOMED CT codes or on ICD 11 ontology based linearisations codes will give the same result Ability to reproduce exclusions by queries RodriguesmedinfopanelII

Seamless re-use and Semantic Interoperability Dipak Kalra, EuroRec and UCL on behalf of: Medinfo 2013 Copenhagen Do we need a Common Ontology between ICD 11 and SNOMED CT to ensure seamless re-use and semantic interoperability? RodriguesmedinfopanelII

What are we trying to do, and why Heart Failure (HF)? Complex diagnostic, treatment and management issues Potential for effective self management Poor outcomes when badly managed but potential for good quality and improved expectancy, of life, when well managed General poor awareness in health care community and general population Care across range of domains Enormous capacity for miscommunication and diagnosis - dangerous Massive resource implications, recurrent hospitalisations, high health care contact - governments - commissioning Robust research basis and potential for further research Source: John Cleland, Suzanna Hardman, SHN WP1 RodriguesmedinfopanelII

Mortality for patients hospitalised with HF Source: John Cleland, Suzanna Hardman, SHN WP1 Inpatient Mortality 11.1% - Cardiology ward 7.8% - General medical 13.2% - Other ward 17.4% RodriguesmedinfopanelII

William Hogan RodriguesmedinfopanelII

The Good Division of labor Textual definitions Decoupling clinical data capture from administrative coding RodriguesmedinfopanelII

The Good (continued) Classification is no longer “one size fits all” Machine-interpretable ICD exclusions Clearly separating information from what information is about RodriguesmedinfopanelII

The Bad Shift from “ontology” to “representation of meaning” What does it mean to “represent meaning”? Can I take a picture or video of meaning? Does my name designate a meaning or me? The statement “brain located in skull” does not relate two meanings! Why not represent reality? It is no concession to philosophical realism to say that medical records talk about real people, with real diseases Nominalists believe people and diseases exist, too From Ontology Summit 2013, endorsed by many (including ~3 of us in this room!) Ontologies are human-intelligible and machine- interpretable representations of some portions and aspects of a domain RodriguesmedinfopanelII

The Bad (continued) Apparent maintenance of duplicate classes and identifiers “each class…has to correspond to exactly one class…” “aligned classes” RodriguesmedinfopanelII

Questions How will classes of FC of ICD have description logic definitions? Will there be anatomy, pathology, pathophysiology classes in FC/CO? Will there be an upper ontology with standard relations? How will CO/FC/SNOMED CT be kept synchronized? For example, after a change to a DL definition in SNOMED, how will CO get updated? Or will the CO be the master, from which SNOMED and FC are derived? Will FC classes have ICD11 identifiers? Is there a distinction between FC and CO as I am making here? What is the difference?
