hospital stay dataset - definition #22

Closed LucieContamin closed 2 years ago

LucieContamin commented 2 years ago

For the term "hospital stay dataset" (replacement of hospitalizations), the definition is "a dataset that is about two or more hospital stays involving two or more patients.". Should we change it to "one or more"? As we might have only 1 case sometimes.

Per the IAO, data sets are aggregates that must have two or more. OTherwise, it's not a dataset. So we cannot change this without changing the source ontology.

Alternatively, we could remove the imported class and recreate our own. Requires discussion. Hard to imagine a dataset about just one hospital stay of one patient one time.

Thanks for the additional information, I misunderstood the definition. I don't think we will have 1 data for 1 patient, 1 stay, 1 time point so I don't think we need to change.
