Package oracle.hsgbu.ets.loinc Description

Contains classes pertaining to the Logical Observation Identifier Names and Codes (LOINC). Regenstrief Institute for Health Care undertook the creation of LOINC in 1994 to provide a standardized set of codes for clinical laboratory tests (Example, chemistry and hematology). LOINC has since expanded to include codes for clinical observations, such as vital signs, hemodynamics, obstetric ultrasound, and pulmonary ventilator management. More information can be found at the LOINC website, www.loinc.org.

ETS provides a special LOINC loader that accepts LOINC content in its native format. ETS also provides extensions to its generic interface to support special features of the LOINC terminology.
