Traditional Chinese medicine — Categories of clinical terminological system to support the integration of clinical terms from traditional Chinese medicine and Western medicine

This document establishes the core classification framework for the integration of clinical terms from traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) and Western medicine. This structure supports terminology integration in standardized electronic medical records, including professional clinical terms in TCM and Western medicine. Non-technical terms for electronic medical records are also included.

Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards
bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out
through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical
committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International
organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work.
ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of
electrotechnical standardization.
The procedures used to develop this document and those intended for its further maintenance are
described in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 1. In particular, the different approval criteria needed for the
different types of ISO documents should be noted. This document was drafted in accordance with the
editorial rules of the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2 (see www .iso .org/directives).
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of
patent rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. Details of
any patent rights identified during the development of the document will be in the Introduction and/or
on the ISO list of patent declarations received (see www .iso .org/patents).

Introduction
The clinical terms used in traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) are distinct from those used in
[29]
healthcare systems based on Western medicine. Although the SNOMED CT has become more
mature and the TCM clinical term framework has already been published, the clinical terms of TCM and
Western medicine are used in combination in real medical records, and therefore cannot and should not
be completely separated. Specific standards are urgently needed to support the increase of computer
applications and electronic communication in healthcare. An encompassing terminological system
is required to support a consistent way of indexing, reserving, retrieving and aggregating TCM and
Western medicine clinical data. The standardization of TCM clinical terminology (ISO 19465) cannot
fully meet the needs of electronic medical record processing for hospitals. The large number of clinical
terms cannot be effectively managed without classification. Development of a categorial framework is a
fundamental requirement for the development of the terminological system.
The objective of this document is to express a core categorial structure of clinical terms of TCM and
Western medicine, based upon existing structures. The development of this document will help existing
users to develop a robust logical clinical terminology system.
