This is indeed the intent: the language has been design to cater exactly for this extension. I can't say that there's any international content about to come out with this addition numeric modelling, but Australia has been publishing this kind of content in the Australian Medicines Terminology (AMT) since July 2014 (one release per month).

I want to believe that the SNOMED CT Expression Constraint Language has been designed with a future evolution of SNOMED CT in mind, where concepts will be enriched with numerical values. For example, SNOMED CT now contains a set of Virtual Medical Products (VMP) such as "[374649006] Amoxicillin 400mg/5mL suspension (product)" with two relationships: - Has active ingredient → Amoxicillin - Has dose form → Oral suspension If these relationships are enriched with the medication strength, then the VMP concepts would be better defined and could be queried using the numerical options of the constraint language. 2015-09-30 9:20 GMT+02:00 Thomas Beale <thomas.be...@oceaninformatics.com<mailto:thomas.be...@oceaninformatics.com>>: On 30/09/2015 07:51, michael.law...@csiro.au<mailto:michael.law...@csiro.au> wrote: Imagine instead the example was using the corresponding AMT concepts (since snomed pure doesn't have any concrete domain modelling -- I.e. numeric values). Then the focus concept would be the AMT amoxycillin Medicinal Product concept 21415011000036100 and the constraint matches would be MPUUs and TPUUs with capsule form and between 500 and 800 mg of amoxycillin as an active ingredient ok - so the query would be applied to instances in a drug database (each instance there is a drug descriptor)? - thomas _______________________________________________ openEHR-technical mailing list openEHR-technical@lists.openehr.org<mailto:openEHR-technical@lists.openehr.org> http://lists.openehr.org/mailman/listinfo/openehr-technical_lists.openehr.org -- David Moner Cano Grupo de Informática Biomédica - IBIME Instituto ITACA http://www.ibime.upv.es http://www.linkedin.com/in/davidmoner Universidad Politécnica de Valencia (UPV) Camino de Vera, s/n, Edificio G-8, Acceso B, 3ª planta Valencia – 46022 (España) _______________________________________________ openEHR-technical mailing list openEHR-technical@lists.openehr.org<mailto:openEHR-technical@lists.openehr.org> http://lists.openehr.org/mailman/listinfo/openehr-technical_lists.openehr.org
