Abstract
The process of moving from the locally defined flowsheet ontology containing redundancy and jargon to one understandable by researchers is described. Over 250 million nursing flowsheet observations were imported into a data repository that uses the i2b2 framework. Focus groups were used to derive a new ontology model--18 templates were identified. One hundred measures, 50% of all patient observations over 36 months, were encoded in SNOMED CT(©). 78% of the concepts were mapped.Entities:
