OBJECTIVE To improve semantic interoperability of electronic health records (EHRs) by ontology-based mediation across syntactically heterogeneous representations of the same or similar clinical information. MATERIALS AND METHODS Our approach is based on a semantic layer that consists of: (1) a set of ontologies supported by (2) a set of semantic patterns. The first aspect of the semantic layer helps standardize the clinical information modeling task and the second shields modelers from the…

Efficient Results in Semantic Interoperability for Health Care. Findings from the Section on Knowledge Representation and Management.
TLDR
The current research activities further illustrate the continuous convergence of Knowledge Representation and Medical Informatics, with a focus this year on dedicated tools and methods to advance clinical care by proposing solutions to cope with the problem of semantic interoperability.
The Value of Clinical Information Models and Terminology for Sharing Clinical Information
TLDR
This paper contributes to a qualitative longitudinal interpretive study with an effort to increase the possibility to obtain semantic interoperability (towards integrated care) and discusses SNOMED-CT and other relevant clinical terminology and Clinical Information Models (CIMs) such as OpenEHR archetypes.
The Patient Summary Case: Challenges in Archetypes Terminology Binding Using SNOMED-CT Compositional Grammar
TLDR
The challenges detected show a pressing need for the collaboration between the openEHR community and SNOMed International for providing better guidelines about terminology binding, better tooling for facilitating the binding process, and developing mechanisms that allow for extending SNOMED-CT with other biomedical ontologies in order to increase the coverage of archetypes semantics for scenarios with high expressivity requirements such as data reuse ones.
Interface Terminologies, Reference Terminologies and Aggregation Terminologies: A Strategy for Better Integration
TLDR
A model that aims at providing a better flow of standardized information, addressing multiple use cases in health care including clinical research, epidemiology, care management, and reimbursement is proposed.
Aalborg Universitet An empirical approach to enhancing terminology binding An HL 7 FHIR SNOMED CT example
TLDR
This study suggests a method for empirically evaluating whether a terminology binding represents the value sets used in practice and found two problems with the terminology binding, namely, that the reason for prophylactic treatment and that medication given as part of a procedure, but not related to the patients’ problems per se could not be expressed within the boundary of HL7 FHIR’s example terminology binding.

Ontology Patterns for Clinical Information Modelling
Motivated by our experiences of representing clinical information using OWL DL, which often resulted in highly complex expressions, we propose the use of ontology content patterns to facilitate this…

A semantic-web oriented representation of the clinical element model for secondary use of electronic health records data
TLDR
The CEM-OWL representation connects the CEM content with the Semantic Web environment, which provides authoring, reasoning, and querying tools and may facilitate the harmonization of the Cems with domain knowledge represented in terminology models as well as other clinical information models such as the openEHR archetype model.

An Ontology-based Model of Clinical Information
TLDR
The starting point of a successful model must be an ontological analysis of the process of clinical care delivery, seen as a scientific problem-solving process, and a classification of types of clinical information called the Clinical Investigator Record (CIR) ontology is developed.
Formal ontologies in biomedical knowledge representation.
TLDR
It is argued that the task of formal ontologies is solely to represent universal statements, while the non-ontological kinds of statements can nevertheless be connected with ontological representations.
The clinical element model detailed clinical models
TLDR
The aim of this research is to develop a detailed clinical model architecture that meets the needs of Intermountain Healthcare and other healthcare organizations.
The Ontology-Epistemology Divide: A Case Study in Medical Terminology.
TLDR
It is shown that epistemology-loaded terms are pervasive in biomedical vocabularies, that the "classes" they name often do not comply with sound classification principles, and that they are therefore likely to cause problems in the evolution and alignment of terminologies and associated ontologies.
Ontology-based reinterpretation of the SNOMED CT context model
TLDR
In order to improve interoperability and enhance interoperability between nations, an ontology-­‐based reinterpretation is proposed and results are encouraging as the proposed model helps clarify the role of OWL-­­‐DL expressiveness.
