Anatomical Therapeutic Chemical Classification System (ATC/DDD Sample Clauses

Anatomical Therapeutic Chemical Classification System (ATC/DDD. The ATC/DDD system[14] is an instrument for presenting active ingredient utilization statistics with the aim of improving drug use. The system is suitable for international comparisons of active ingredient utilization, for the evaluation of long term trends in drug use, for assessing the impact of certain events on drug use and for providing denominator data in investigations of drug safety.  ATC - Anatomical Therapeutic Chemical (ATC) classification system Within the ATC systemactive substances are divided into different groups according to the organ or system on which they act and their therapeutic, pharmacological and chemical properties. The drugs are classified in groups (five different levels).  DDD - Defined Daily Dose ‘The DDD is the assumed average maintenance dose per day for a drug used for its main indication in adults.’ The DDD will only be assigned for drugs that already have an ATC code. Latest versions are obtainable at xxxx://xxxx.xx/amtl_atc-code.html in the file format of Excel (xls). Linkage to commercial drugs with brand or generic names can be realized using mapping tables. The classification does not fulfil criteria for a semantically meaningful classification since the ATC classification is rather vague (Group V for example contains various entities i.e. allergens for hypersensitisation but also surgical dressings). Furthermore, the DDD is actually given without consideration of personal background (age, gender, etc.). The purpose of this classifying is simply to determine a letter for a code. Hence, ATC with DDDs is best described as a coding system. So, it cannot be taken into consideration as a resource of knowledge representation or a foundation for automated reasoning.
