Title: Integrating standardized nutrition terminology into electronic health records.

Over the last two decades of inception, Nutrition Care Process and Terminology (NCPT) has evolved into a globally adopted standardized language model for providing critical thinking and decision-making framework that facilitates good nutritional care practices and supports impact assessment.  The growing need for medical data entry in structured or pre-defined formats in Electronic Health Record (EHR) System has fostered the development of NCPT reference sets in SNOMED CT. This lecture will share the outcome of the INIS (International Nutrition Care Process and Implementation Survey) study in Scandinavian countries which examined how standardized nutrition terminologies are integrated into the EHR systems.
