Concept/Terminology Provider

IConceptRepositoryService in assembly SanteDB.Core.Api version 3.0.1980.0

Summary

Represents a service which is responsible for the maintenance of concepts.

Description

This class is responsible for the management of Concept, ConceptSet, and ReferenceTerm definitions from the SanteDB CDR's concept dictionary. The implementation of this service contract should provide methods for contacting the storage provider (either local database or a remote terminology service) to:

• Resolve ReferenceTerm instances from inbound messages from code/system pairs

• Resolve appropriate ReferenceTerm data given a Concept instance from the SanteDB CDR to be sent on an outbound message

• Determine the membership of a Concept in a ConceptSet

• Determiner relationships between Concept instances

Operations

Operation	Response/Return	Input/Parameter	Description
FindConceptsByName	IEnumerable<Concept>	String name String language	Searches for a by name and language.
FindConceptsByReferenceTerm	IEnumerable<ConceptReferenceTerm>	String code Uri codeSystem	Finds a concept by reference term information, returning the so the caller can determine if the and are equivalent, narrower than, etc.
GetConceptSetMembers	IEnumerable<Concept>	String mnemonic	Gets all the members of the specified concept set
GetConceptByReferenceTerm	Concept	String code String codeSystemDomain	Finds a concept by reference term only where the concept is equivalent to the reference term
FindConceptsByReferenceTerm	IEnumerable<ConceptReferenceTerm>	String code String codeSystemDomain	Finds a concept by reference term information, returning the so the caller can determine if the and are equivalent, narrower than, etc.
GetConcept	Concept	String mnemonic	Get a instance given the concept's unique mnemonic
Implies	Boolean	Concept a Concept b	Returns a value which indicates whether concept implies concept through a indicating the two are the same
IsMember	Boolean	ConceptSet set Concept concept	Returns true if the concept is a member of set
IsMember	Boolean	Guid set Guid concept	Returns true if the concept is a member of set
GetConceptReferenceTerm	ReferenceTerm	Guid conceptId String codeSystem Boolean exact	Gets the concept reference term for the specified code system
GetConceptReferenceTerm	ReferenceTerm	String conceptMnemonic String codeSystem	Gets the concept reference term for the specified code system
FindReferenceTermsByConcept	IEnumerable<ConceptReferenceTerm>	Guid conceptId String codeSystem	Finds all reference terms for the concept with in the specified system.
GetName	String	Guid conceptId String twoLetterISOLanguageName	Get the specified concept name
ExpandConceptSet	IQueryResultSet<Concept>	Guid conceptSetId	Expand the concept set to a flat list of values
ExpandConceptSet	IQueryResultSet<Concept>	String conceptSetMnemonic	Expand the concept set to a flat list of values
