Hello Roman, Thank you for…
Hello Roman,
Thank you for your feedback!
We are looking into different ways of improving the SNOMED dictionary import to handle the issue that you mentioned.
Thanks,
Philipp
Dear,
According to your guidance on how to install SNOMED, we have to use sct2_Description_Full-en.txt.
This file includes all versions, therefore includes also inactivated and old terms that are updated in the meantime.
For validation it seems P21C creates a file with all the distinct CONCEPTIDs and TERMs, including inactive and old terms, which results in unreliable validation.
E.g. if you are using a term in your TS dataset that has been inactivated, P21 will not pick this up because the term is still present in the SNOMED file.
Is this a bug in P21C or should we pick a different file to add a SNOMED dictionary in P21?
kind regards
