Requirement Analysis of Search Browser for Efficient Searching of Clinical Terminology  

Ryu, Wooseok (Department of Health Care Management, Catholic University of Pusan)
Abstract
SNOMED CT is a standard clinical terminology to provide a standardized way to record and manage clinical records for EMR or EHR. The structure of SNOMED CT is very complex because of huge expressive power and its internal design mechanism. Although there are some SNOMED CT browsers for browsing and searching SNOMED CT concepts, they are less effective because they do not consider such complexity of SNOMED CT. This paper depicts problems of current SNOMED CT browsers and analyze SNOMED CT dataset. Then, this paper analyze requirements of SNOMED CT browser which improves searching and selecting of appropriate clinical terms.
