Abstract

목적 : 본 연구는 한의약에서 사용하는 용어가 SNOMED CT로 매핑 가능한지 여부를 조사하고, 한의약 용어를 표현하기 위해 기존 SNOMED CT 온톨로지를 개선할 수 있는 방안을 제안하는 것을 목표로 하였다. 방법 : 선행 연구의 매핑 가이드라인에서 제시된 7단계 과정을 수정하여 활용하였다. 매핑의 목적 및 범위 정의, 용어 추출, 개념 추출, 매핑을 위한 소스 용어 작업, SNOMED CT 개념 검색, 매핑 관계 분류 및 매핑 검증의 과정을 수행하였다. 매핑의 목적은 한의약 임상 아이디어를 표현하는 표준 용어로서 SNOMED CT를 평가하는 것이고, 범위에는 편두통 환자 관리의 평가, 진단, 치료 및 예방을 포함하였다. 결과 : 총 546개의 용어가 추출되었다. 중복된 용어를 제거한 후, 271개의 개념이 SNOMED CT 매핑에 사용되었다. 이중 43.2%는 SNOMED CT 개념과 의미론적으로 동등하게 매핑되었고(117개 개념), 39.1%는 SNOMED CT 개념이 더 포괄적인 의미를 가지도록 매핑되었다(106개 개념). 상대적으로 포괄적인 의미를 가지는 SNOMED CT 개념에 매핑된 한의약 개념 106개 중 19개는 SNOMED CT 후조합을 이용하여 의미론적으로 동등하게 표현이 가능하였다. 나머지 17.7%의 한의약 개념은 SNOMED CT에 매핑할 수 없었다. 결론 : 본 연구는 한의약에서 사용되는 개념을 SNOMED CT에 매핑하여 한의약 용어를 표준화하였다. 연구 결과를 바탕으로, 한의약에서 사용되는 용어를 표준의료용어로 표현하기 위하여 SNOMED CT에 새로운 개념과 속성을 추가하는 것을 제안한다.
