'organize' holds between an independent continuant and a planned process, iff the independent continuant particpates in the planned process and also participated in the creation of the plan specification that the planned process realizes.
organize
This relation holds between two specifically dependent continuants, a and b, where b is of its nature such that it cannot exist unless a exists and where a is of its nature such that it cannot exist unless b exists.
mutually specifically depends on
A primitive, instance-level, relation obtaining between an information content entity and some portion of reality. Prescribing is what happens when an information content entity created, ratified, or issued by an entity with authority over the domain the ICE targets states actions or specifications or the omission of actions that are expected to be adhered to.

has specified value
A relation between a value specification and a number that quantifies it.
A range of 'real' might be better than 'float'. For now we follow 'has measurement value' until we can consider technical issues with SPARQL queries and reasoning.
PERSON: James A. Overton
OBI
A measurement datum that is the output of counting.
It can be denoted as an arithmetic value or in form of a word, and is usually as a result of a process.
count
A planned process that computes the totality of some material entity.
counting
A measurement datum that quantifies a temporal region that is occupied by a processual entity.
duration
A technique is a planned process used to accomplish a specific activity or task.
A method or skill used to accomplish a specific activity or task.
Protocol is added to eagle-i temporarily until a relationship between the informatio entity "protocol" and these planned processes is created. This class refers to the axtual process not the document
technique
A technique that is performed to restore some or all of the patient's physical, sensory, and mental capabilities that were lost due to injury, illness, or disease.
geographical entity of astronomical body
A material entity that is (1) a bona fide or fiat object part of the crust, any bodies of liquid on or contained within the crust, or planetary boundary layer (if present) of a terrestrial planet (including Earth), dwarf planet, exoplanet, natural satellite, planetesimal, or small Solar System body, and that (2) overlaps the planetary surface (including having a boundary that coincides with part of the planetary surface).
Matt Diller
Includes atmosphere, crust, geographical regions (e.g., the geographical region over which the state of Florida has jurisdiction), bodies of water, mountains, etc. Generally, an individual organism is a distinct object that is not a part of the Earth, although this requires more thought. But the intent is definitely for this class to NOT subsume organism universally. Human beings are contained within, but not part of, the Earth, for example.
Note that despite the word 'planetary' in 'planetary surface', it refers generally to surface of dwarf planets, asteroids, moons, etc.
We note that not all planets have a surface per se (e.g., gas giants such as Jupiter and Saturn). So only planets, natural satellites, etc. with a planetary surface (with or without a planetary boundary layer) have geographical entities.
We note that the term 'geography' is also applied to the Earth's moon, Mars, Venus, and possibly even other moons and planets in our own solar system and beyond. Thus, we are attempting to define things generally enough that they could be reused for the geographical entities/features on the Moon, Mars, other planets, exoplanets, other natural satellites (a.k.a moons), asteroids, etc.
geographical entity
A geographical entity that is demarcated at least in part by one or more closed fiat boundaries all of whose lines are part of the planetary surface.
François Modave
geographical region
assay
Assay the wavelength of light emitted by excited Neon atoms. Count of geese flying over a house.
A planned process with the objective to produce information about the material entity that is the evaluant, by physically examining it or its proxies.
12/3/12: BP: the reference to the 'physical examination' is included to point out that a prediction is not an assay, as that does not require physical examiniation.
PlanAndPlannedProcess Branch
measuring
scientific observation
OBI branch derived
The value of 'positive' in a classification scheme of "positive or negative"; the value of '20g' on the quantitative scale of mass.
An information content entity that specifies a value within a classification scheme or on a quantitative scale.
This term is currently a descendant of 'information content entity', which requires that it 'is about' something. A value specification of '20g' for a measurement data item of the mass of a particular mouse 'is about' the mass of that mouse. However there are cases where a value specification is not clearly about any particular. In the future we may change 'value specification' to remove the 'is about' requirement.
value specification
A representation that is either the output of a clinical history taking or a physical examination or an image finding, or some combination thereof.
A social process that has at least one human participant and that includes as parts the treatment, diagnosis, or prevention of disease or injury--or the following of instructions of another human for treatment, diagnosis, or prevention--of a participant in the process
A process involving a patient and a healthcare professional that focuses on the assessment, diagnosis, treatment and consultation for a disease or injury, or for prevention of a subsequent injury.

09/16/2020 Is this same as admission? Is this the same as inpatient encounter?
A part of an organism that has undergone a change in structural integrity and has a higher chance of dysfunction or causing dysfunction in another structure.

A data item that is about a patient and is the specified output of a health care process assay or diagnostic process

patient
CAFE domain expert working group.
A person who presents to a healthcare provider for clinical care.

based on: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nursing
A health professional graduate of a school of nursing who provides nursing care to promote the attainment, maintenance, or recovery of optimal health and quality of life for individuals, families, and communities.
nurse role
Definition needed, but the idea is that we want to differentiate between provider and payer organizations. Some organizaitons have both roles (e.g., UPMC has a Hospital Division, a Physician Divison, and an Insurance Division).
health care provider organization role
A role inhering in an entity realized by social interactions in human society.
Previous definition: A role played by an entity in human social processes.
role in human social processes
A role in human social processes that inheres in an organization.
Defined class that we will ultimately move to an application ontology. We are leaving here for now until we determine which application ontology: it is likely going to be an ontology that does not currently (2012-06-05) exist. Ditto for its current descendants.
