Health Products and Technologies (HPT) - Medical Devices

The Health Products and Terminologies (HPT) domain in the KNHTS contains concepts related to the classification, management, and standardization of medical devices and their associated terminologies. This domain is important  for ensuring that medical supplies and diagnostic devices are accurately represented and interoperable across various healthcare systems

The concepts are subdivided into two sub-domains:

  • Medical Supplies: Concepts under this category include items used in patient care such as bandages, syringes, and surgical instruments. These concepts focus on defining the attributes, uses, and standard classifications of medical supplies.

  • Lab Diagnostic Devices: This involves concepts related to diagnostic equipment like blood analyzers, imaging machines, and other diagnostic tools. It encompasses the specifications, functions, and terminologies associated with these devices.
