This presentation provides general information about the background and nature of SNOMED CT.

A short history of experience in recording clinical ideas in computer systems over the past forty years. This sets the context for the requirements associated with the adoption and development of SNOMED CT.

A Fishbone document is used to explore the potential root causes of a problem.

In the LOINC Primer for Newborn Screening we provide an introduction to LOINC, with a focus on its applications in the newborn screening space. We review how LOINCs are made, how to find the right code for your specific test, and a few cases of what not to do.

Healthcare organizations have many reasons for bulk-data export, such as populating a data warehouse for operational or clinical analytics, leveraging population health and decision support tools from external vendors, and submitting data to registries and regulatory agencies. Today, bulk export is often accomplished with proprietary pipelines, and data transfer operations frequently involve an engineering and field mapping project. Learn about an exciting new effort by SMART and HL7 to bring the FHIR standard to bear on these challenges of bulk-data export.

A fishbone diagram helps team members visually diagram a problem or condition's root causes, allowing them to truly diagnose the problem rather than focusing on symptoms.

This two-part presentation 1)provides content on: the History of LOINC as an organization and a community of users; a definition of LOINC and LOINC code basics; the LOINC concept model; the six LOINC axeses; and resources for learning more about LOINC. 2) an overview of a typical mapping project using LOINC.
