Concept Set Definitions

Concept set definitions are used for defining the constraint domain and the range of acceptable values and types of a relationship predicate.

The MRCM PG release includes concept set definitions defined by specifying a concept and whether to include its descendants. In addition to these, two more concept set definition types are added: Reference Set and Enumerated concept set definition.

Type of concept set definitions:

Concept Set Definition

Description

Hierarchial

Select a specific concept and the inclusion type (self, descendant, or self and descendants)

Relationship

Apply to concepts that have the specified relationship. Stated and additional relationships are also considered

Reference Set

Include all the members of a particular Reference Set. This is quite useful in practice for dynamically building Reference Set Editors based upon their relationship, description, and concrete datatype constraints

Enumerated

Include the set of explicitly specified concepts
