Working methods
title | Expand for Working Methods associated with the #crg-vocab-vote channel |
---|
Use the Vocab Issues Reporting form which is available via your space in Confluence
The Medical Terminology Manager will determine if the issue can be resolved, or if it requires discussion and consensus from the CIS community
If discussion and consensus is required, the issue will be posted to the #crg-vocab-vote channel in Slack for comments from the CIS community in the following format:
- Vocabulary Issue: SNOMED CT has a term for Tonsillectomy and another for Tonsillectomy and Adenoidectomy, but has no term labeled Adenoidectomy. Instead, they use the word Adenoidectomy as a synonym for the term that they have labeled Adenoid Excision.
- Proposed solution: Change the Cochrane label to Adenoidectomy and make Adenoid Excision the synonym in our vocabulary
- Response requested: If you agree with the proposed solution or have no opinion, response is optional. If you disagree or would like further discussion, please comment on this Slack channel within the next 14 days
- NB - this and any other unresolved vocabulary issues can be found on the Open Vocabulary Issues page in Confluence - where they will be tagged as "Consultation" This issue is LDO-389
The discussion will be open for a two week period after which if no decision has been made it will then be passed to the working group of five.
This working group will vote and come to a decision within one week
Please note that the #annotation channel is still available for all general queries relating to the annotation work, including questions about tools and processes.
