Attributes
REFNAME="name"
RefName of the coding mapping component containing the verbatim item to be coded. Required.
VERBATIMTYPE="type"
Type of verbatim to be coded. Optional. This value corresponds to the item type in the Central Coding application:
- AE—Adverse event
- DISEASE—Disease
- LABDATA—Lab data
- MEDPROD—Medical product
AE, DISEASE, and LABDATA are valid verbatim types for the MedDRA dictionary. MEDPROD is a valid verbatim type for the WHO-DD dictionary.
Children
A CodingMap element has the following child elements:
- One Dictionary element specifying the coding dictionary to use.
- At least one CodeTarget element specifying the mapping between the InForm control holding the data after it is coded and the dictionary code target used to code the data.
- Optionally, a ContextInformation element containing one or more ContextItem elements. A ContextItem element specifies the mapping between an InForm control providing additional context information and the dictionary context item used to code the data.
