SNOMED CT is increasingly being used in clinical decision support (CDS) systems to support healthcare providers in making well informed clinical decisions. SNOMED CT's polyhierarchy, defining relationships and concept model are just some of the terminology's features that help to link patient records to the appropriate guidance, clinical knowledge and decision rules.
This guide explains how SNOMED CT may be used to support data analytics, and how integrating clinical records with decision support tools can improve the care provided to individual patients by guiding safe, appropriate and effective patient care. It also reviews the approaches, tools and techniques used to implement clinical decision support with SNOMED CT, and shares developing practice in this area.
