FAIRsharing record for: Read Clinical Terminology Version 2

This FAIRsharing record describes: Read Codes are a coded thesaurus of clinical terms. They have been used in the NHS since 1985. There are two versions: version 2 (v2) and version 3 (CTV3 or v3). Both versions provide a standard vocabulary for clinicians to record patient findings and procedures, in health and social care IT systems across primary and secondary care. The Read Codes were developed in 1985 by Dr. James Read. The U.K. National Health Service Centre for Coding and Classification (NHS CCC) acquired and now maintains the Read Codes. Read Codes contain hundreds of thousands of terms, synonyms, and abbreviations covering all aspects of patient care including signs and symptoms, treatments and therapies, investigations, occupations, diagnoses, and drugs and appliances. Read Codes are used by healthcare professionals in computerized information systems. Read Codes are now known as Clinical Terms. PLEASE NOTE: the retirement of Read v2 and v3 (CTV3) clinical terminologies has been scheduled. The last release of Read v2 was April 2016, and as such this record has been marked with a "Deprecated" status. CTV3 is due to be retired after the April 2018 release.

本FAIRsharing记录描述如下：Read代码（Read Codes）是一套临床术语编码词表，自1985年起便在英国国民保健署（National Health Service, NHS）中投入使用。该词表包含两个版本：版本2（v2）与版本3（CTV3，亦称v3）。两个版本均为临床医生提供了标准化词汇集，用于在初级与二级医疗场景下的健康及社会护理信息技术系统中记录患者检查结果与诊疗操作。Read代码由詹姆斯·里德博士于1985年研发，英国国民保健署编码与分类中心（National Health Service Centre for Coding and Classification, NHS CCC）收购该词表后至今负责其维护工作。Read代码包含数十万条术语、同义词与缩写，覆盖患者护理的全维度范畴，涵盖体征与症状、治疗与疗法、检查项目、职业、诊断结果以及药物与医疗器械。医疗专业人员可在计算机化信息系统中使用Read代码。Read代码现更名为临床术语（Clinical Terms）。请注意：Read v2与v3（CTV3）临床术语集已被列入停用计划。Read v2的最终发布版本为2016年4月，因此本记录已标记为“已废弃（Deprecated）”状态。CTV3则计划于2018年4月发布对应版本后正式停用。
