ABSTRACT
Representing numeric values such as scalars holds great importance for accurately depicting clinical data. While the result value itself will always be represented using an integer, decimal, or other scalar format, it needs to be linked to its corresponding data element. In SNOMED CT, as in most other terminology systems, this is done through an attribute relationship. While some scalar values are already included in this way, they only represent a small fraction of possibilities. Our intention is to expand the scope of scalar representation by validating new attributes using a previously established method. The result is a list of five attributes validated for local representation of scalar values, improving semantic representation and interoperability.
