Terminology normalization is provided in the Allergies widget through the following GUI elements:
The Allergen column displays allergy information contained in the patient's record. Hovering over an entry in this column will display the standard used for terminology normalization for the clinical domain (RxNorm), the standardized allergen name, and the standardized RxNorm code for that allergen.
The Standardized Allergen column displays the standardized name for the corresponding entry in the Allergen column, mapped to the RxNorm standard. In addition to the standardized name, hovering over an entry in this column will display the standard used for terminology normalization for the clinical domain (RxNorm), and the RxNorm code for that allergen.
The following example highlights an allergen mapped to the RxNorm standard. The standardized name and standardized code are displayed in the hover text over the record in the Allergen column.
