Most of the OMOP standardized clinical data tables have a mandatory type concept_id field (e.g. procedure_type_concept_id), which describes where the data is derived from. As there is currently no standard type concept for data collected as part of a study/clinical trial, we need a convention on what concept to use for these fields.
