Shunt Naming and Modeling
Naming
FSN
Use the following naming pattern for the FSN; align terming and case sensitivity with the FSN for the concepts selected as the attribute values, excluding the semantic tag.
[compositional material] [body structure] shunt (physical object)
For example,
Ventricular shunt (physical object)
Pleuroperitoneal shunt (physical object)
Preferred Term
Use the following naming pattern for the PT; align terming and case sensitivity with the PT for the concept that is selected as the attribute value.
[compositional material] [body structure] shunt
For example,
Ventricular shunt
Pleuroperitoneal shunt
Synonym
Synonyms are not generally added for concepts in this hierarchy.
Modeling
Stated parent concept(s)
257351008 |Shunt (physical object)|
Additional parent, if applicable:
258166002 |Custom made implant (physical object)
Semantic tag
(physical object)
Attribute:Has device intended site
Note this attribute is used to model the proximal site of the shunt only.
Range: <<123037004 |Body structure (body structure)|
NOTE: While the MRCM allowed range includes the top-level concept, 123037004 |Body structure (body structure)|, only the descendants should be used in modeling shunt concepts.
Cardinality: 0..1
Attribute: Has compositional material
Range: <<105590001 |Substance (substance)|
NOTE: While the MRCM allowed range includes the top-level concept, 105590001 |Substance (substance)|, only the descendants should be used in modeling shunt concepts.
Cardinality: 0..*
