Artifact
Anatomic Location Modifier Refset
Purpose of Refset
This Refset is an all inclusive list of spatial and laterality modifier terms from the qualifier value branch of SNOMED to be used in conjunction with Anatomic location terms for the purpose of describing the location of conditions such as wounds.
Examples of what to include
The foundation for this refset is the VSAC Anatomic Modifier refset (2.16.840.1.113883.3.2074.1.1.24) that includes standard terms needed for FDA and CDISC. Additional values were added to support the current wound project.
Examples of what to exclude
This Refset should not include Anatomic locations, rather it should be used in conjunction with Anatomic location terms.
