Abstract:
EHR Interoperability is crucial to obtain a set of benefits. This can be achieved by using data standards, like ontologies. The Portuguese Nursing Ontology (NursingOntos) is a reference model describing a set of nursing concepts and their relationships, to represent nursing knowledge in the Electronic Health Records (EHR). The purpose of this work was to define a set of correspondences between Nursing Ontology concepts of NursingOntos and other terminologies, which have the same or similar meaning. In this project, we are using the ISO/TR12300:2016 standard on the principles of mapping between terminological systems. Regarding the domain of "airway clearance", we can say that Portuguese Nursing Ontology has a good level of mapping with other terminologies. In conclusion, we can say that Portuguese Nursing Ontology can be used in EHR with the purpose of a global digitalization of health.
