Very rough, for discussion. From the realist point of view. Patient 1 in http://esw.w3.org/topic/HCLS/ ClinicalObservationsInteroperability/MockedUpPatientData dispositions: orthostatic intolerance http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ Orthostatic_intolerance dizziness D004244 hypertension D006973 orthostatic hypotension D007024 dizziness while standing - while standing = condition on realization fainting while standing diabetes Uncertain: pulse rate (see http://groups.google.com/group/bfo-discuss/ browse_thread/thread/1695b1b7780ea455) cardiac ejection fraction ("quality of an occurrent" ?) Qualities: Hemoglobin A1c 9 % D006442 (the protein), need a glycosylated version (the quality is actually A1C form glycosylated heamoglobin/ total haemoglobin) (see https://wiki.cbil.upenn.edu/obiwiki/ index.php/ConcentrationQualityInOBI, https://wiki.cbil.upenn.edu/ obiwiki/index.php/Image:Concentration.pdf) postprandial glucose serum creatinine urinary protein BP was 84/60 mm Hg (maybe a disposition, not sure) Barry's view in 2003 http://ontology.buffalo.edu/medo/BPO.pdf IndependentContinuants Patient Bicycle Drugs (always material with some therapeutic role) valsartan 80 mg insulin atenolol dose 6.25 beta blocker cerebral infarction cerebellar infarction ischemic lesionn brain Organizations Jichi Medical School Hospital Hypertension Clinic (implicit building, space, physicians) TemporalRegions 54 years old 2002 2004 13 February 2005 Processes http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Valsalva_maneuver having Echocardiography having a brain MRI having single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) complaining once daily dose Life of patient 1 drug therapies falling down riding a bicycle diagnosis head-up tilt test sleep Walking Functions Ability to walk ("ambulatory") Information entities (all information entities here are "about" some occurrent or continuant) single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) images Electrocardiogram MRI images 84% 2+ 84.0 mumol/l (note for this and other measurements we have the information entity and the quality the information entity is "about") 173/93 ~~~~ http://ontology.buffalo.edu/medo/BPO.pdf Blood pressure is the pressure exerted on the arterial walls by the flow of blood. The term ‘blood pressure’ designates both a certain function (to exert pressure) and also a certain state (of pressure being exerted), both of which are dependent continuants, the latter being associated with a value. The process of change in this value is an occurrent, which is dependent on the underlying state. Like all other functions in the body, blood pressure is subject to regulation. Regulation of blood pressure involves the exercise of a number of different functions in different parts of the body. Their collective task is to maintain blood pressure value within a certain interval.
