Moving Toward International Standards in Primary Care Information:
Clinical Vocabulary Conference Summary Report New Orleans, November 1995.
Some excellent information. The chapter of the same name as the title presents
findings from a research project comparing the various terminologies with their
ability to capture the data in nursing and medical notes. Interestingly, even
then SNOMED performed the best. In the chapter "Report on Consensus"
the strengths and weaknesses in 1995 of the International Classification of
Primary Care, Read Codes (In 2000 these were incorporated into
SNOMED.), SNOMED and the Unified Medical Language Systems are examined.
Although the comparisons are dated, the information on the critical elements
in standards statements is still valid.
