Understanding the North Thames Mapping Report
Each data model contains a number of catalogue elements such as data classes and data elements, Some of these have corresponding elements in other data models.
For example, the data model LONDONPATHOLOGYCODES has a data element with code 'LDPC-2008' and name 'C-Reactive Protein Serum'. This has corresponding elements in the 'Rare Diseases' and 'WinPath' models as follows:
| Data Model | Element Type | Code | Name |
|---|---|---|---|
| Rare Diseases | Data Class | 35253 | C reactive protein |
| Rare Diseases | Data Element | 35257 | C reactive protein Lower Range |
| Rare Diseases | Data Element | 35255 | C reactive protein measurement unit |
| Rare Diseases | Data Element | 35254 | C reactive protein result |
| Rare Diseases | Data Element | 35256 | C reactive protein Upper Range |
| WinPath | Data Element | CRP | C Reactive Protein |
| WinPath | Data Element | CRP | C-Reactive Protein Serum |
To see these in the Model Catalogue, log into the North Thames demo site (https://ntdemo.metadata.org.uk/#/ or similar, use username/password supervisor/supervisor).
