Can deprecated non-standard SNOMED codes be used in OMOP CDM? #728

Open emmaleof opened 1 year ago

emmaleof commented 1 year ago

Hello,

I am using SNOMED and SNOMED Veterinary codes to map veterinary source codes to a common vocabulary. I am currently mapping breeds and have noticed they are almost all deprecated ('Validity') and non-standard ('Concept') within Athena. A couple examples include: English cocker spaniel (4060275) and Maine coon cat (4219909).

Does anyone know if I can use deprecated/non-standard concept IDs and have them appropriately work within my OMOP CDM (e.g., supported, contain the hierarchical info)?

If this should be directed to another group, please let me know. I am happy to provide additional details, if needed.

Thank you for your help. Emma
