Abstract

In the international classifications ICD-10-WHO and ICD-11-WHO, many sex-specific diseases have incomplete coding. It is possible to further enhance semantic interoperability using SNOMED CT additionally to ICD. Part of the analysis of semantic interoperability of diagnoses in the ICD are Sexual Dysfunctions, Postpartum Depression, Sexual Assault, Premenstrual Tension Syndrome and Premenstrual Dysphoric Disorder, Female Genital Mutilation and Cutting, Gender Incongruence and Disorders of Breast. Labeling biases have been identified in all diagnoses, either in SNOMED CT or ICD. For mental disorders associated with pregnancy, gender incongruence and sexual violence the use of the GPS of SNOMED CT can help enhance semantic interoperability additionally to ICD.
